Dear friend,
Sixteen months ago, the citizens of Saanich-Gulf Islands choose Elizabeth May as our first elected Green Member of Parliament. Since then, Canada’s hardest working MP has displayed a determination which rises far above what many thought a single MP could do, building a team that resembles a “small OLO” (Office of the Leader of the Opposition) in the process.
During her first year in Parliament, Elizabeth has:
- Spoken in the House of Commons over 500 times;
- Tabled three Private Members Bills;
- Seconded or co-seconded 40 additional Private Members Bills and Motions;
- Tabled 140 petitions;
- Submitted over 300 substantive amendments to Bill C-38 alone;
- Voted in 441 out of 455 recorded votes; and
- Done all of that, and yet claimed less than 2/3 of the allowable limit for personal expenses.
Elizabeth, in her efforts to truly represent her constituents, the membership of the federal party and Canadians, has made us proud!

Sincerely,
Craig Cantin
