Thank you for your support!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who helped and supported me during this 41^st federal election campaign. Whether you donated, volunteered or voted for the Green Party, you support is greatly appreciated. You were a fantastic team and I am proud to have walked the line with all of you.

I want to extend a particular thank you to the local Media in Glengarry-Prescott-Russell who allowed me equal air time in this election. It has not always been the case across Canada and I appreciate the fact that you provided the residents of Glengarry-Prescott-Russell an unbiased opportunity to make up their own minds based on the information you provided.

I would also like to thank the other candidates for running clean, respectful and intelligent campaigns in this riding – a sign that true democracy is healthy at home.

Elizabeth has shared: ”For now, to each and every one of you  -- MANY THANKS.  We share this one seat. We are in the House”.

I continue to have great hope for Canada. I will rest and reflect on the national results and on my next steps.  I have asked our party to regroup early this summer at a summer convention to get all candidates and their teams under one roof to review the campaign, to discuss strategy between campaigns, to infuse positivism and renew the Green spirit.

I’m looking forward to meet and chat with you in the near future as I hope we will stay engaged in our goal of continuing to build a Green Vision for Canada between elections.

In closing I’m committing to support the Green Party of Ontario in our region so please consider being our next Green provincial candidate in October and we will work together for a Greener approach to democracy.

Sincerely,

Sylvie Lemieux
