The Green Party of Ontario has now established a Constituency Association in our riding of Leeds-Grenville-Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes. The CA will work to support the GPO candidate in the upcoming provincial election, to promote Green values, and to build a community of like minded people. Steve Gabell was elected as president of the CA, while Carolyn Rayfield was elected as CFO.
Steve said: “I am delighted to have been elected as president of our CA. I’m looking forward to building connections with the local community, and working to protect our environment for current and future generations.”
The CA will be holding meetings on the last Thursday of each month, and, as well as discussing party business, we will also be discussing topical issues and reviewing a book.
The GPO is currently seeking a candidate for our riding who embodies Green Values of ecological wisdom, social justice, participatory democracy, nonviolence, sustainability, and respect for diversity. For more information see www.gpo.ca, or email stevegabell@gpo.ca.
