The Role Of the Ontario Representative

With the final date of voting for members of the Federal Council coming up, I thought that I would put one more submission in the blogs asking for your support. All I can say is that, before I joined the Green Party, I have spent my whole life in politics and that I have been a member of or worked for each major party in Canada. And I have learned a lot about campaigning. But I feel that all of the life experience that I have acquired in these political parties has steered me towards this moment in time where I am seeking to be an influence in the Green Party Of Canada. I see and feel the spirit of the members of this great party and I feel profoundly that it is my role to bring this party to political maturity, to seats in the House Of Commons, to solid political legitimacy. I think we can capture the hearts and minds of this nation by showing everyone that we really are the only party that is inclusive of all. We want Conservative, Liberals, NDPers to join us. We want everyone who has waited their entire lives for these parties to have a real meaning to join us and to see that, not only are we the party that has done the most to advance the cause of environmentalism in the collective conciousness of the nation, but that we are the party that believes in fiscal responsibility, international peace-keeping leadership and equitable social justice. I feel that my combination of political experience and passion for the future of our planet will be a real asset as your Ontario Representative on the Federal Council. I am the candidate for the Green Party Of Canada in Peterborough and I am determined to become just one of many new Green Party Members Of Parliament. I want to help. I want to take all that I have learned in my life and use it for this noble cause. I am asking for your support. I know that we can all work together and change the face of politics in Canada. Your support will help me to achieve this.

Sincerely,

Joel Parkes
