Elizabeth May, Leader of the Green Party of Canada and Member of Parliament for Saanich-Gulf Islands, will be reading from and signing her latest book, Who We Are: Reflections on My Life and Canada.
This book is an argument for our future, the future of our children, and our grandchildren and generations beyond. It is about how diminished democracy undermines our best hope to avoid the worsening of the climate crisis, accelerating to threaten human civilization itself. It is a book about how we can make a difference.
In this marriage of memoir and manifesto, Elizabeth provides personal perspectives on her approach to politics, policy, and what it means to be Canadian.
When: Saturday, November 15, 2014 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM
Where: McMillan Arts Centre - 133 McMillan Street, Parksville, BC
Because the venue holds only 60 people, Elizabeth will do two readings - one at 2pm and one at 3pm, with each followed by a brief talk and Q&A and a book signing.
Books will be available for purchase from Mulberrry Bush Bookstore

“Elizabeth May has connected with a deep vein of anxiety among Canadians—who are we? What kind of country have we become since Stephen Harper became Prime Minister? Her analysis, built on a wealth of information, is refreshingly clear and honest. For the first time in ages, I feel hopeful.”
- Maude Barlow, author of Blue Future
