Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador

Challenging political inaction and championing the environment. Sustainability, local self reliance, social justice, and democratic reform drive our policies.

Reflecting on the recent municipal elections. In the next Provincial election, what would happen if we elected 40 district MHAs and 40 at large MHAs? Greater representation? More gender diversity? More independents? Breakthrough new parties (cough cough)? . #nlpoli

@ehcormij If the planet is ruined there will be nowhere for our children to relocate to.

Premier Furey is telling people to prepare for Hurricane Larry. He should have been preparing by not investing millions in extending the Terra Nova oil project. Climate Crisis = More Larry's #CantHaveItBothWaysBuddy #sjpoli #nlpoli

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

Are you satisfied with the approach being taken by the NL Provincial Government in regards to climate change? #nlpoli

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

@BCGreens Congrats on continuing to represent the people and the environment in the BC legislature. A well fought election.

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

Would you support a political system like New Zealand? Voting once for your local MHA and voting a second time for a party? #nlpoli

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

Congratulations @AnnamiePaul on becoming the newest leader of the Green Party of Canada. #nlpoli

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

Would you be willing to pay higher taxes if it meant a faster and a more just transition away from an oil based economy, helping to fight climate change and developing a more sustainable and renewable society for our children? #nlpoli

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

Let’s be clear. Climate change is affecting everything and everyone everywhere and there is no such thing @SeamusORegan as greener oil. And the faster we as a society face up to this fact the better. Liberals fundamentally seem unable or unwilling to understand that.

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

@SeamusORegan @FureyAndrew @ChurenceRogers @Gudie @McDonald4Avalon @Scott_Simms @Andrew_Parsons1 Oh come on! It’s like saying our cigarettes cause less cancer or our guns kill less people. By suggesting our oil is helping the planet you show that Liberals fundamentally will not do what is necessary to fight climate change.

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

@PremierofNL @SeamusORegan We wonder how many trees he could have planted for $320 million? Or how many boil water orders would be lifted? How many abandoned fishing nets, waste sites and tailing ponds could be cleaned up for $320 million? You should be protecting our kids future not condemning it.

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

@SJCNL709 @fffstjohns Politicians take note. The climate crisis didn’t put a mask on and self isolate. It continues to be an existential threat to us all. Like forever.

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

Do you agree with the Premier releasing exploration deposits back to big oil companies?

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

@PremierofNL Government shouldn’t be subsidizing The continued expansion of this industry that is directly causing a planet wide climate crisis. Our children including yours need you to make greener decisions.

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

Are you in favour of changing the minimum wage to $15 per hour and indexing it to inflation thereafter? #nlpoli

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

@15andFairnessNL @FureyAndrew @MikeGoosney @gepelley @gdowneysutton1 We need wages that let people live with dignity. Society needs to say to business and government that dignity delayed is dignity denied. The time is now to fix the minimum wage and inflation proof it forever.

[Green Party of Newfoundland and Labrador @NLGreenParty]

Should the Province sell its equity interests in oil projects? #nlpoli #nfld #ClimateChange

Congratulations to @FureyAndrew
