Greetings to all our supporters!
We have an amazing announcement!
Greens have changed the political landscape in Canada forever…
Canada now has its first Green MP! On the morning of Saturday Aug. 30, Blair Wilson, an Independent Member of Parliament, sat beside Party Leader Elizabeth May and announced that he is joining the Green Party. Blair is the sitting MP in West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast—Sea to Sky Country (yes – that is the name of the riding!).
To quote Ms. May:
"Today we make history. I am grateful for Mr. Wilson's principled belief that the Green Party deserves a voice in Parliament and for his firm commitment to democracy. With a Green MP sitting in the House of Commons, it will now be impossible to exclude the Green Party from the televised leaders' debates in the next election.”
Join Mike Nagy, Elizabeth May and all of us in welcoming Blair Wilson to the Green Party. Mr. Wilson and Elizabeth May will meet Mike Nagy for a rally in Guelph tomorrow at 4:30! Come out and support our new Member of Parliament!!!
