Get ready to rock the rails with the ultimate train tour

The FLICK OFF Express will travel by VIA Rail to four cities across Ontario with a group of environmental experts, opinion leaders, students, advocates, corporate partners and some cool Canadian bands demonstrating how much Canadians care for the future of the planet.

The FLICK OFF Express is all about raising awareness of climate change among Ontario university students and encouraging them to FLICK OFF. Always about personal individual action to fight climate change, FLICK OFF is going to the next level – where individuals join together to motivate our leaders to invest in a brighter environmental future.

The FLICK OFF Express is urging individuals, corporations and all other leaders to commit to a renewable energy plan that replaces our reliance on fossil fuels with clean green alternatives.

Join the movement and together we can rally against climate change!
