VIDEO: One week to go.

  Hey there Friend, We are in the final week of the election and things are active on the ground! It has been a fast election, and certainly an unnecessary election, but it has also been an incredible experience. I have been volunteering with Nick Loughton’s campaign in Victoria, British Colum…

Help us meet this week’s fundraising goal!

  Hello Friend, This has been an exciting week for the Green Party! We released our platform with daring and practical policy solutions. Annamie impressed Canadians at the French Leaders’ Debate. Then she wowed us again at the English debate! This past week we needed to raise $40,000 and thank…

Annamie took centre stage

  Friend, Did you watch the French debate last night? Annamie had the line of the night when she spoke on the subject of accessible childcare as the other party leaders talked over each other: "I’m asking myself if all the men here will let a woman speak on an issue that impacts women more tha…

Before she takes the stage!

  Friend, In just a matter of hours, Annamie Paul will participate in the French Leaders’ Debate. Before she takes the stage, I want to have some good news for her. I want to be able to tell her our fundraising numbers are soaring and our $40,000 goal is within view. Will you donate $10.00 now,…

Supporters needed from your riding

  Hi Friend, It’s almost time for the highly anticipated Leaders’ Debates, and our campaign has an ambitious goal of raising $40,000 this week alone. It’s true that we don’t have the same kind of funding as the other big parties. But Greens always pull together, and this $40,000 target is impor…

The climate election.

August Fundraising Deadline

A few dollars for the climate

  Friend, I’ve seen the numbers, and our campaign is aiming high for this end-of-the-month fundraising deadline. Grassroots power is the key to political change, and we’re counting on you to help us exceed our goals. Giving just a small amount can put power behind our calls for climate justice.…

This is an opportunity we must take

  Dear Friend, This is my third campaign in two years. We first made history in Nanaimo-Ladysmith in a May 2019 by-election. We kept our momentum soaring in the 2019 federal election, and I am running again this year. Representing my community in Ottawa is a great honour, and I am excited to ge…

$5

Code Red for Humanity

“Too ambitious”

  Hi Friend, “Too risky.” “Too bold.” “Too ambitious.” This is what the old-school political pundits are saying about Annamie Paul’s decision to run in Toronto Centre. But they’re wrong. Why? Because the old guard doesn’t have the kind of bold vision we Greens have for Canada. In last year’s by…

Dear Friend, It’s official. The Liberals have called an election for September 20, so we are now in campaign mode. First and foremost, you can count on Greens to stand up for your safety in this first-ever pandemic federal election. Politics should never come ahead of your health and, wit…

IPCC Report: I know this was a hard read but we can’t let this news extinguish our hope and paralyze action

Hello Friend, Days ago, the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) confirmed what we’ve known for a long time: climate change is here, it is caused by humans and we need urgent action to limit the most severe impacts of a warming planet. The IPCC report was very hard to rea…

Where there’s hope, there’s action.

Hello Friend, This year has set heat records. In British Columbia, hundreds — hundreds — of people died in the extreme heat. The communities of Lytton and Monte Lake burned to the ground. Wildfires are still burning out of control. It’s 2021 and the climate crisis is upon us. Now our wind…

Climate action: the time is now, Friend

Hello Friend, Recent events bring home that the impacts of climate change are here now. Canada needs to take decisive action to avoid the worst of the climate crisis. The facts speak clearly: Canada’s current greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) are 21 per cent above 1990 levels. Canada’s GHG…
