Our 20th Anniversary Celebrations
Thank you to all of our past, present and future supporters for making our 20th Anniversary events a coast to coast success – in Halifax, Toronto and Vancouver.
Clients from our biggest wins, past and present staff, board members, and thought leaders from Canada’s environmental movement joined our supporters this October to celebrate two decades of court room wins, legal precedents and unwavering advocacy for our rights to a healthy environment.
Ecojustice extends our most sincere gratitude to everyone who made our 20th year our best yet. Enjoy the highlights from our celebration, and look forward to a new generation of environmental wins in the years to come – as we move towards a sustainable world for all Canadians.
