Lauder Smith is busily scheduling my agenda trying to balance the new school year, after school activities, debates and a candidate who wants to do it all! I am off to the Ottawa Citizen tomorrow for the Editorial Board and have various activities talking to the media in the upcoming weeks.
For those who wish to support the Greens at the debates we want YOU there at the following dates :
September 19th - Sharbot Lake High School Mock Debates Verona All Candidate Meeting
September 21st - All Candidates Debate Carleton Place
September 23rd - Kaladar All Candidates Debate
September 26th - Limestone Meeting on Education
September 27th - All Candidates Meeting Napanee
These dates are always changing and I do have a few more tentative dates, including farm tours, community group meetings, and canvassing plans.
I wish I could visit everyone in the riding and every business but even without sleep this isn’t possible. Therefore, if you know someone who wants to meet, or a business that would want a visit please let me know.
It’s TIME to share the Green Vision!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
TheToronto Star. |
A carbon tax creates jobs. To work, carbon tax must sting
Jan. 20 2008.
It is understandable that most people oppose a carbon tax if they think it
will be a new tax. Nobody wants additional taxation. But a carbon tax would
be welcomed by most of us if it was part of a tax shift off jobs and
businesses. A carbon tax should be used to create a revenue stream with which
governments reduce other taxes by an equal amount, dollar for dollar. |
