Standing Up for Citizens’ Health and Rights – Susanne Lauten

Susanne Lauten founded Cottagers Against Uranium Mining and Exploration, which helped win unprecedented changes to the Ontario Mining Act: the future protection of landowners who do not own their mineral rights. Now their land can no longer be exploited by mining companies and prospectors.Cottagers Against Uranium Mining and Exploration opposes uranium exploration taking place in Haliburton and the Kawarthas. By organizing cottagers and joining forces with local residents, Susanne Established Change Without a Governmental Seat. She is a tenacious protective little “pit bull”who won;t let go until she gets results. We need a powerhouse like this in Ottawa!

Support First Nation call for political collaboration on Aboriginal issues? YouMightBeAGreen

Elizabeth May and Chief Isadore Day,Wiindawtegowinini Issue Call for Political Cooperation

Chief Isadore Day:

Our First Nation communities are dealing with critical issues. There are 116 First Nations in Canada without access to clean drinking water. Statistics state that one in four First Nation children are poverty-affected, and sadly we are still under a 1996 two-percent funding cap that perpetuates these travesties.

Elizabeth May:

The widening gap between Aboriginal people and Canadians continues to grow daily, and we cannot afford to let this important issue fall between the cracks in partisan politics,

The Green Party Platform:

True Democracy Means Greens Will:

Ensure that citizenship is equal. Social justice and equity are cornerstones of democracy. Canadian democracy is more secure when human rights are respected – starting with the First Nations and indigenous peoples of this continent, Turtle Island. Canada must move forward in implementing the spirit of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

Want to know what the Conservative;s policy on open internet is before the election?

Green Party still calling on Conservative’s to give access to information

Access to information. Seek true solutions to the increasing corporate control in Canadian journalism. Whatever is “dumbed down” must be “smartened up.”

You Want your Vote to Count? YouMightBeAGreen !

True democracy Looks Like This:

True democracy means making every vote count. More than votes, it means engaging and debating respectfully. It means working together to find a cooperative and positive way forward. As Canadians, we take pride in a global reputation for civility and cooperation. Our instincts run to generosity and compassion. Let’s embrace that.

While Canada reduces waste in its economy and industry, it should also stop wasting votes. Move to a fairer electoral system that reflects the true will of voters.

Want Proportional Representation? YouMightBeAGreen !

Update Our Voting System

Reform our voting system. Hold a national discussion on the health of our democracy, address the growing and undemocratic power of the Prime Minister’s Office and explore the options for a more meaningful electoral system. Consider the risks of “first past the post” and vote on whether it should be replaced. Consider proportional representation.
