In this election, Greens are showing that we are not a one-issue party. And we are showing we are not a one-person party.

Green candidates across the country are passionate about our planet, our security, and our democracy. Today, I was moved by the passion of our youngest candidate, Casandra Poitras. She says she believes in the Green Party because we prioritize action on climate change.

 I am so grateful when I hear a young person take action for our future. It is an act of generosity toward my generation.

Why do so many Canadians associate Greens with the environment? Maybe they believe that action on climate is needed, and has been missing. Climate change is the issue of our time, and we are ready, like Casandra Poitras, to take it on.
