Hi Friend,
When I read this email from my colleague Phil, I WAS REMINDED OF THE
PASSION THAT GOT ME INTO GREEN POLITICS IN THE FIRST PLACE. It began with
the Green Party of Ireland and now the Irish Greens are part of a
successful coalition government.
When there are elected Greens, there is hope and real action.
Did you know there's more than 100 Green parties worldwide? Across
countries and continents, Greens are hard at work for our shared values,
for people, and for the planet. Recently, I've been inspired by the New
Zealand Greens and the German Greens who are leading in the polls -- the
next German Chancellor might be a Green!
We are a part of a global Green community. Just like our global Greens, the
Green Party of Canada is dedicated to championing climate action, a green
recovery, a complete social safety net and a just society. AND WE’RE
RELYING ON THE SUPPORT OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU TO FUND THIS WORK!
GIVE TODAY [1]
THIS IS OUR STRENGTH. WORKING TOGETHER MEANS WE ARE STRONGER, TOGETHER.
I’M INSPIRED BY OUR INTERNATIONAL PEERS, AND I KNOW WE CAN HAVE THAT
SUCCESS HERE IN CANADA TOO. LET’S ELECT MORE GREENS TO PARLIAMENT THAN
EVER BEFORE. [1]
Thanking you,
DEIRDRE O'BEIRNE-RØSÆG
Deputy Director of Communications
Green Party of Canada

Subject: Where there are Greens
Hey there Friend,
In Prince Edward Island, the Green Party official opposition just pushed
through Canada's first provincial plan to permanently end food insecurity.
In New Brunswick, Green MLAs are steadfast in calling for the full
implementation of all calls to action from the final report of the Truth
and Reconciliation Commission.
In Ontario, our Green MPP, and Leader of the Provincial Party, is fighting
for paid sick leave for all and to protect essential workers.
In British Columbia, Green MLAs are the only representatives fighting to
save the last of our precious and irreplaceable old-growth forests from the
loggers' chainsaws.
THE MESSAGE IS CLEAR. WHERE THERE ARE ELECTED GREENS — WHETHER IT’S
ONE, TWO OR MANY — THERE IS HOPE.
HELP ELECT MORE GREENS [2]
As a member of the GPC mobilizing team, I hear these kinds of
David-and-Goliath stories every day. Working with local campaigns around
the country, I'm often first to hear about the incredible work our local
ridings and Green Members of Parliament are doing. Trust me when I say that
NO OTHER PARTY MATCHES OUR AMBITION FOR OUR COMMUNITIES. IT’S WHY WHEN
GREENS GET ELECTED, THEY STAY ELECTED.
An elected Green anywhere -- municipally, provincially, or federally -- is
a win for every person in Canada. At a time when we face an affordability
crisis, stagnant wages, student debt, and a climate crisis, AN ELECTED
GREEN MEANS ONE MORE VOICE SPEAKING OUT FOR WHAT’S RIGHT, ONE MORE VOICE
OFFERING THE INNOVATIVE POLICY SOLUTIONS WE NEED.
Our polls tell us WE ARE SURGING IN KEY RIDINGS ACROSS CANADA. Imagine what
we could accomplish together if we did the groundwork now to vote in a
fleet of Greens to Parliament next election. Your donation will make that
possible.
So here's my pitch. We're fast approaching a crucial fundraising deadline.
WE’RE ASKING FOR YOUR SUPPORT NOW SO WE CAN FINISH THE FIRST HALF OF 2021
STRONG AND READY FOR AN ELECTION.
That election could be called any moment. Now is the time to show our
strength.
WHETHER TRUDEAU SENDS US TO THE POLLS IN AUGUST OR NOVEMBER, ONE THING IS
FOR SURE: YOUR GENEROUS SUPPORT TODAY DIRECTLY TRANSLATES INTO MORE
HARDWORKING GREENS IN THE HOUSE. CAN YOU CHIP IN, EVEN JUST $5, TO HELP
LOCAL CAMPAIGNS GET READY? [2]
Let's make this next election our best yet,
PHIL DESROSIERS
