Hi Friend,

Wow! What a year it's been for the Green Party of Canada!

When a by-election was called in Nanaimo-Ladysmith my team was ready to go!
Thanks to the hard work we put in during the 2015 campaign we were able to
reach thousands of supporters in advance and we had commitments for almost
1000 lawn signs. Greens from across Canada volunteered and donated to my
campaign.

AND ON MAY 6TH WE MADE A HISTORIC BREAKTHROUGH WHEN I BECAME THE SECOND
GREEN MP ELECTED TO THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.

Our victory did not go unnoticed.

The next day, when Prime Minister Trudeau was asked about the by-election
in Nanaimo-Ladysmith, he said that "Canadians must be preoccupied with
climate change." There were hundreds of news stories about our Green Party
victory, from the Nanaimo News Bulletin all the way to the UK Guardian and
the Washington Post.

The political agenda had shifted. That's the power of voting Green.

Elizabeth was an amazing mentor to me in the House of Commons, and we
showed the country what a Green Party caucus could do. My time in Ottawa
was short but effective, and when the election was called my team was ready
to go again thanks to the tireless efforts of our volunteers and the
incredible generosity of donors like you.

2020 WILL BE A CRITICAL YEAR FOR THE GREENS WITH THE LEADERSHIP CONTEST
STARTING SOON, CONVENTION IN OCTOBER AND SOME KEY BY-ELECTION
OPPORTUNITIES. WITH A MINORITY GOVERNMENT, WE DON’T HAVE THE CERTAINTY WE
DID LAST TIME.

WE HAVE TO BE READY. [1]

DONATE [1]

The Green Party inspired people across Canada in 2019. We signed up
thousands of new members, had excellent candidates across the country and
dedicated teams supporting them. We ran a high-road campaign that we should
be very proud of. More than 1.2 million Canadians voted Green.

AND BEST OF ALL, THE 2019 CAMPAIGN GAVE US ANOTHER BREAKTHROUGH: THE
ELECTION OF JENICA ATWIN IN FREDERICTON!

We now have three MP's in the house and if each of us works as hard as
Elizabeth May has for the last eight years, WE’LL MAKE THE LIBERALS FEEL
LIKE THERE’S 30 OF US!

I know from experience that the hard work we did in Nanaimo-Ladysmith in
2015 paid off in the by-election and the general election. And I know that
all the hard work Greens have put in across the country this year is going
to help us elect even more Green MPs.

But we can't do it without your support. Remember that with the tax credit
for political donations you can get up to 75 per cent of your donation
back. So your donation of $10.00 could cost as little as
$2.50. [1]

DONATE [1]

Now more than ever our children and grandchildren are counting on the Green
Party. Our work must continue. That means staying active in our communities
with our EDA's. Helping your Green MP's hold the government to account and
building on our momentum going into the next election campaign.

SO MANY OF YOU HAVE ALREADY CHIPPED IN THIS YEAR AND FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY
HEART I THANK YOU. ELIZABETH, JENICA AND I OWE SO MUCH TO THE TIRELESS
EFFORTS OF OUR VOLUNTEERS AND THE AMAZING GENEROSITY OF DONORS.

So thank you. And Happy Holidays!

With gratitude,

Paul Manly
MP for Nanaimo-Ladysmith
Green Party of Canada
