Moving Forward: Building Upon Campaign 2011

As we head into a new year, we are confronted with the uncertainty of a minority parliament. There's little doubt that the legacy parties will continue to avoid, duck and dawdle, punting problems to future generations. The issues facing us today will still be here when we make our next trip to the polls.

The Green Party of Ontario is looking for your input on this past election, and advice on how to move our party forward. Please take a few moments to fill out our questionnaire and offer us your thoughts on the way ahead.

Thank you!
