The Green Party of Canada in Ottawa Centre recently announced that we are seeking a new candidate, and asked interested people to step forward. Well, they did! So we have scheduled a nomination meeting where you can help choose which candidate will carry the Green Party banner in the next federal election. Each nominee will have an opportunity to speak to the assembled members and answer questions before the vote.

Ottawa Centre Nomination Meeting
Monday, March 31, 7 p.m.
Glebe Community Centre
(175 Third Ave. at Lyon)

We want as many members as possible to vote, so if you cannot attend the nomination meeting on March 31, you can vote instead at one of two advance polls.

  • Thursday, March 27, 5-8 p.m., at Wild Oat Bakery & Whole Foods (817 Bank at Third Ave.)
  • Saturday, March 29, 10 a.m.-noon, at The Table Restaurant (1230 Wellington at Holland)

To find out who’s running, please click here. If you are interested, it’s not too late to seek the nomination, but you must submit your candidate application package to the riding executive before March 24. Email or call us at 613-860-1330.

We will post any updates about the nominees and the nomination meeting (including a possible special guest) on this Web site, and notify members by email.

To be eligible to vote, you must be a member of the Green Party of Canada as of March 17, and live in Ottawa Centre (click here to see a map of the riding). Lapsed members – whose memberships have expired within the past year – can renew right up until March 31; we’ll have forms available. To receive a ballot, you will be asked to show identification with an address matching our records. To buy a membership or renew online, click here.

If an election is called before March 31, we will hold the meeting earlier and alert members by email and by posting details on this Web site.
