SUMMARY:What do Canadians really think about climate change? 2026
DESCRIPTION:Do some Canadians really believe climate change is a hoax? \nIt’s hard to believe\, but in 2025 this was a legitimate question for up to 34 per cent of Canadians. It’s a deeply worrying trend that speaks to shifting national conversations around economic security and national unity. And it’s put Canadians in a double bind: Canadians support cleaner energy at home\, but feel the country’s broader economic future—thanks in part to sustained political and industrial messaging—depends on fossil fuels. \nClimate organizations and communicators are forced to navigate this tricky moment marked by policy reversals\, new pipeline projects\, positive electrification progress\, growing uncertainty about where Canada is heading and a population that is confused about the causes of climate change. \nJoin Re.Climate for the launch of our latest public opinion rollup\, where we’ll explore what recent public opinion research says about how Canadians are thinking about climate change\, energy politics and the government’s climate action right now. \nThe webinar will touch on what communicators need to know about current public thinking: What appears durable\, which narratives are gaining traction\, what is driving public attitudes\, and where strategic opportunities for communications still exist. \nPublic opinion is shifting faster than ever. Our annual public opinion rollup brings together over 100 polls published between April 2025 and April 2026 to give you a clear-eyed portrait of where Canadians are at right now. \nPlease note that this webinar will be conducted in English.

SUMMARY:Mend It! Reskilling Workshop with Zero Waste Sooke
DESCRIPTION:Zero Waste Sooke returns to the Sooke Region Museum for the second of this spring’s reskilling workshops. If you’re tired of throwing out clothes as soon as they wear out\, both you and the planet will benefit from this workshop. \nInstructors Paula Johanson\, Emily Trim\, Lynn Moss\, Anne Boquist\, and Gillian Gravenor will be on hand to teach basic mending skills to repair your garments or upcycle them into something new and exciting. Who knows—maybe that old pair of jeans can become a tote bag! On site\, there will be two sewing machines\, electrical outlets\, an ironing board and iron\, pins\, needles\, buttons\, thread\, Velcro\, elastic\, a few pairs of scissors\, old patterns\, and some cloth. All you need to bring are old things that need new life! \nAlso\, if you have a sewing machine that you need to learn how to use\, you can bring it along. The instructors will show you the basics so you can get more mending done at home. \nRegistration for each reskilling workshop costs $15 and is limited to 15 people – so register soon to get your spot! If the registration fee is a barrier to you participating in the reskilling workshops\, contact the Museum (250-642-6351 or info@sookeregionmuseum.ca) and we can reduce or waive the fee. If you are able to pay a bit more for registration\, you will have the option at checkout to donate money to these reskilling workshops to remove financial barriers for others.

DESCRIPTION:Two time Juno award and American Music Award winner singer songwriter Alfie Zappacosta delivers a performance like no other. A sophisticated musician with international poise Alfie sings in both English and Italian; studied in jazz and classical guitar. He is a virtuoso composer and seasoned live performer. Alfie’s rich soaring vocals have always been his signature and his songs diverse drawing from pop\, jazz and rock elements.\nWith five decades of unwavering commitment to his craft\, Alfie continues to create music that is both richly complex and profoundly impactful\, shaping songs that linger\, resonate\, and speak directly to the hearts and souls of his audience.\nEvident in his 16th album\, Saved\, released in 2021 on Alma Records\, his music moves effortlessly from soulful and romantic to upbeat and jazzy. Building on that momentum\, 2026 marks another productive chapter\, with his 17th album set for release and a recent performance at the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame.\nAlfie’s vocal dexterity and song writing proficiency was uncovered by a publisher while writing for his first original band “Surrender\, a five-piece group that recorded three albums in the late 1970s into the early 1980s.\nAs a solo artist\, Alfie’s career took off with a string of enduring hits that brought him to international attention\, including “Start Again\,” “Passion\,” “When I Fall in Love Again\,” and “Nothing Can Stand In Your Way\,” co-written with David Foster. In 1988\, he was honoured with JUNO Awards for Album of the Year and Most Promising Artist\, along with an American Music Award for Most Popular Album of the Year. Further cementing his global reach\, Alfie penned and performed “Overload” exclusively for the multi-platinum Dirty Dancing soundtrack.\nThese hit songs were originally written for acoustic and jazz presentations. Writing for radio began to rub against Alfie’s musical integrity and he became frustrated with the demands of music trends. Alfie broke from the stereotype and began to write the lyrics and melodies that were authentically him. \nDate and Time: On Sun\, 14 Jun 2026 18:30 – 20:30 \nVenue details: The Coda\, 751 View Street\, Victoria\, British Columbia\, V8W 1J9\, Canada \nCategory: Live Music \nPrice: General Admission: CAD 40.00
