Kingston: November 8–10
Recently, Greens from across Ontario gathered in Kingston to respond to the Caring Crisis facing our province. With inspiring leadership from Mike Schreiner and his deputy dream team—including our own Matt Richter and MPP Aislinn Clancy—delegates rallied behind a shared vision: putting people and the planet ahead of personal gain.
The call to action was clear: Green over Greed. This resounding message echoed through workshops, hallway conversations, and assembly debates, energizing Greens to grow our voice at Queen’s Park.
Early Election Readiness
“Don’t be surprised if the writ drops on January 8, with just 28 days to campaign. Be ready!”
– Executive Director Jaymini Bakima
Here in Parry Sound–Muskoka, we’re getting ready. Our dedicated team is already knocking on doors, making calls, and having meaningful conversations about the issues that matter most to our neighbours.
Building on Momentum
With Matt Richter’s historic near win—garnering over 40% of the vote—our riding has captured provincial attention. People see Parry Sound–Muskoka as the next Green seat, and volunteers are seizing this moment to make it happen. From Huntsville to Parry Sound, and everywhere in between, our team is reaching out and connecting with voters.
Convention highlight: LOCAL recognition!
