Alex Cool-Fergus

Alex (she/her/elle) is the National Policy Manager at Climate Action Network Canada. She is a political organizer, climate policy enthusiast, mother of two, bicycle rider and avid reader – though not necessarily in that order. She tries to honour the unceded Anishinaabeg territory on which she lives and grew up, in what is currently called Hull, QC. Alex has run a dozen campaigns at the federal and municipal levels, supported or led various climate justice campaigns and worked for climate organizations in Montréal, Yellowknife, Ottawa and Gatineau.

With the CAN-Rac Secretariat, Alex leads government relations work pushing for ambitious, robust and inclusive domestic climate policies at the federal and sub-national levels.
