Get pumped, folks: an election is going to be called in Toronto Centre (Ryerson's riding), one way or another, before the END OF 2007! This is fantastic news for us because of a number of reasons. The main one is that the Greens have been polling quite highly recently, as their profile grows, and as the shadow of environmental damage becomes more daunting. Also, because of the party's limited resources, we can concentrate on a specific riding instead of having the funds spread out across the nation.

Because of this, we'll need volunteers. Volunteering for the Green Party is an amazing, addictive experience, especially in the adrenaline-infused environment of an election. You get to meet fantastic people and learn about politics. If you want to get involved with the party, a great first step is either joining this group or getting on our mailing list (which you can do by sending an e-mail to ryersongreens@rsuonline.ca).

Step two is to come out to our very first Ryerson Greens meeting! We'll tell you a little bit about our party, our goals, and about where you can fit in. In attendance will be Green Party of Ontario leader Frank De Jong and Green Party of Canada candidate Chris Tindal! Even if you just want to find out more about the party, you don't want to miss it.
