 Hi Friend, My commitment to the Green Party of Canada took root on a memorable election night in May 2011, in Montreal. As a young political science student and non-citizen unable to vote, I was captivated by a federal election full of upheaval. That evening, in a bar where the excitement of the "Orange Wave" was mixed with the anxiety of a Harper majority government, Radio-Canada announced a historic victory: Elizabeth May, Leader of the Green Party, had been elected as an MP. Her victory speech not only marked a political milestone but also instilled in me a firm conviction to vote Green. In 2015, as the federal election approached, that conviction turned into action. As a volunteer for Daniel Green’s campaign, I decided to fully commit myself. A recent graduate fueled by hope, I wanted to help build a fairer world—one where our leaders would confront the climate crisis with courage and work decisively to reduce social inequalities. Ten years later, after leading several election campaigns, I remain convinced that the Green Party is the only federal party capable of offering a bold and coherent vision to tackle the challenges of our time. But my commitment has evolved. As the father of a three-year-old daughter, I am no longer just fighting for a better future. I am now fighting to ensure that my daughter inherits a world less damaged than the one we are leaving behind. We no longer speak of fighting climate change, but of adapting to it. The reality is that we must now take political action to limit the irreversible impacts of this crisis on future generations. This is no longer about acting for today—it is about preventing tomorrow from becoming dire. The next federal election will be pivotal. It will determine whether we choose to commit to future generations or abandon them to a legacy of compromise and inaction. Join us in this vital campaign by making a donation. With determination, Robin Marty |
