Dear Friend,

Yes, I have a confession to make. The world hurts so much right now, it's
difficult not to hurt with it. And that's without mentioning rent, the cost
of groceries, the homelessness on our streets and the feeling that we're
about to hit the climate iceberg at full speed. But in the midst of all
this, I have become ever slightly more optimistic. And that comes from
someone who is very much a self-proclaimed pessimist.

Why the optimism? Because more and more people are waking up to the reality
that the status quo cannot hold any longer. Wherever I go across this
country, I can hear the low rumbling of calls for change growing within
people's chests. Can you hear it too? The good news is: once it gets going,
it can hardly stop.

THE UPCOMING ELECTION WILL BE ONE OF CHANGE. AND IT’S UP TO ALL OF US TO
ENSURE IT IS A POSITIVE ONE.

This country has all the resources needed to:

* Build an additional 1.5 million off-the-market housing units by 2030 to
reduce rent prices across the country and reduce homelessness;
* Eliminate all federal income taxes on the 14 million Canadians who earn
less than $40,000;
* Improve affordability and reduce inequality by ensuring corporations
pay their fair share;
* Create a fund to ensure every Canadian child starts off in life with
the same economic opportunities as everyone else;
* Use proceeds from an oil and gas windfall tax to invest billions of
dollars in a Green Economy and the infrastructure needed to keep our
communities safe.

YES, WE HAVE ALL THE RESOURCES NEEDED TO ACCOMPLISH THIS. IT’S ALL A
QUESTION OF CHOICE. AND THAT’S THE CHOICE WE WILL BE PRESENTING TO
CANADIANS.

To do so, we need top-notch communications and tools to shake the dust off
our image. Which is why we need your help.

If every single one of you gave the party $5, that would support us in
securing:

* A top-notch marketing effort to ensure all Canadians know our story and
what we stand for.
* A part-time social media coordinator to help us spread the message.

If every supporter instead gave us $10, we could have, on top of the
marketing:

* A series of podcasts or short videos featuring Elizabeth, myself, and
Green activists, artists and personalities ramping up the excitement ahead
of 2025.

Now, for $15 each, we'd be in a position to spread our message on a
repeated basis, on all channels, to attract new volunteers, donors and
candidates!

Fifteen dollars may not sound like a lot, but if every single one of our
members contributed, we'd raise over $200,000 by the end of March!

CAN YOU HELP US ACHIEVE THAT GOAL? [1]

No confession is needed here. You know it and I know it: we need you! :-)

In solidarity,
