Climate Change funding needs to be included in Canada's new budget

OTTAWA (CP) - Youth groups are warning Prime Minister Stephen Harper that Canada's future is at stake if he makes good on plans to cut climate change funding in the coming federal budget.

"We are asking the Conservative government to invest in our futures by including climate change action in the pending budget."
