Greens seeking election

Last night I went to a Green Party town hall, with MP and federal party leader Elizabeth May, provincial party leader Mike Schreiner, provincial election candidate Tim Grant, and federal by-election candidate Camille Labchuk.

The event was excellent, with a strong sense of enthusiasm in the large crowd.

The coal phase-out and Green Energy Act make me want to reward the provincial Liberals, but voting Green probably sends the same message (with little risk of accidentally contributing to a Conservative victory, in this riding). As for the federal by-election, anything with a chance of enlarging the Green caucus is encouraging.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford. Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.
