The woman who appeared topless on stage at the Juno Awards in Edmonton on Monday said she did it to bring attention to the loss of natural carbon-capturing areas across Canada and called for drastic action on climate change.

Ever Hatherly, legal name Casey Hatherly, appeared in court in Edmonton on a mischief charge Wednesday and said the stunt had created international buzz around climate change.

“That’s part of why I do my environmental activism topless, because it’s good for headlines,” Hatherly said.

Colin D’Mello reports on what else she had to say, including how she’s trying to draw attention to Ontario Premier Doug Ford’s Greenbelt changes.
