Platform 2006

Download the 2006 Platform We appreciate that many Canadians want to know more about the Green Party of Canada, who we are, and what we stand for. It’s difficult to stick old-fashioned political labels on us, because we’re neither a party of the left nor a party of the right. For us, good ideas are simply good ideas.

So, who is the Green Party?

Energy Plan

Download the plan

Recalculating the energy of our home and native land

The world consumes about two barrels of oil for every new barrel it finds, therefore we not only need to find new sources of renewable energy to respect our Kyoto engagements, we also need to significantly reduce our energy consumption to avoid economic hardships. With decisive actions and meaningful legislation to back them up, we can stop pretending to end oil dependency and actually do it. The Green Party has the political will to achieve environmental and economic results.
