Protect Our Winters (POW) Canada brings a fresh non-partisan voice to the climate movement by uniting and mobilizing outdoor enthusiasts, athletes and businesses. Every Basecamp stay helps fund their work — and every guest can add their voice.
Our Joint Impact Story
POW Canada organizes outdoor enthusiasts, professional athletes, and industry partners around one goal: mobilizing the outdoor community to fight climate change through advocacy and education, not just awareness.
Partnering with POW lets us turn our operational footprint into direct advocacy — supporting policy change, climate education, and clean energy solutions across the regions where we operate.
What POW Advocates For
Outdoor recreation is a powerful economic engine and a cornerstone of hundreds of rural, Indigenous, and mountain communities. We are working to ensure the sector receives the recognition and investment it deserves.
Canada’s future competitiveness depends on reliable, affordable, and clean electricity. We support investments that strengthen Canada’s grid, accelerate clean energy deployment, and expand Indigenous ownership opportunities.
Wildfires are increasingly threatening ecosystems, local economies, public health, and the places we love. We advocate for a modern wildfire strategy focused on prevention, early detection, and stronger response capacity.
This isn't a donation button — it's a seat at the table. POW members get a direct line to policy alerts, petitions, and campaigns that shape climate law across Canada's mountain regions.
