2015 Election a historic moment for PEI Greens

Peter Bevan-Baker and Elizabeth May

(OTTAWA) – Elizabeth May, Leader of the Green Party of Canada and MP (Saanich – Gulf Islands), issued the following statement regarding the PEI election results.

“Congratulations to Peter Bevan-Baker and the whole Green Party of PEI field of exceptional candidates!  Peter brought forward original and innovative policies, campaigned with honesty and engaged PEI voters on issues that matter. I know he will bring the same commitment to his constituents in his role as MLA for District 17.

“I am deeply thankful to Peter’s team and the whole Green Party of PEI field of exceptional candidates! You have made history on Prince Edward Island!”

Bruce Hyer, Deputy Leader of the Green Party of Canada and MP (Thunder Bay – Superior North), continued:

“Peter Bevan-Baker is in the same league as Elizabeth May: smart, hardworking, kind, honest, loving. He is committed to making PEI cleaner, healthier and more prosperous. He is a Renaissance man and one of the finest people I have ever met in my entire life.

“Albert Einstein said famously that the definition of insanity was doing the same thing again and again and expecting a different outcome. PEI residents made the right choice when they voted to send Peter to their legislature. He will bring about some real change."
