The Green Party

Local Green Party Candidate Hilary Crowley spoke to the Nechako Rotary Club about some of the Policies, views and mandate in politics that the Green Party would implement if they are successful in the upcoming election.

Hilary is a long time resident of Prince George, serving as a Physio Therapist in Prince George for many years, and now providing this service to children in outreach areas such as Vanderhoof, Fort St James and Burns Lake that do not have access to therapy in their communities.

Hilary outlined the 10 Guiding Principles for the Green Party, including: Sustainability, Social Justice, Grass Routes Democracy, Non Violence, Community Based Economy, Gender Equity, Diversity, Decentralization, Personal and Global Responsibility and Ecological Wisdom.

Hilary also addressed some of her views regarding local issues such as Site C Hydro proposal, Tar Sands and the Embridge Pipeline proposal.   All difficult types of projects when facing some of the current ecological challenges with sustainability of our environment during at least the next 7 decades.

Rotarian Adele Sjoberg thanked Hilary for her presentation with a donation to our Polio Plus Program.
