Hello Friend, Yesterday, the Liberals announced their priorities in the Speech from the Throne. And I can’t help but feel unsure about what the next few months will hold. Will we be facing an early federal election? We’ve seen political opportunism in two provinces now, with provincial governments calling snap elections despite heath crises. And at a moment like this, when we are on the cusp of electing the next Leader of the Green Party of Canada, being prepared is crucial. The Green political movement is stronger than ever and we must ensure that our new leader has the tools they need to bring even more Green voices to Parliament. The new leader will be chosen by members in just 9 days. But with the risk of a snap election at any time, we need your help now to prepare for the next campaign. Our goal is to raise $200,000 in the Green Breakthrough Fund to welcome the new leader and ensure we’re fully prepared for an election, whether or not Canadians will be going to the polls in 2020. Will you consider helping to ensure election readiness? We can see the Green message is resonating across the country. From the Green MLAs in New Brunswick who held their seats in the snap election, to the new BC Greens leader, to the huge interest in the GPC leadership contest. A federal election could be called sooner than we think. Let’s ensure Green success. Jo-Ann Roberts |
