Mike Schreiner, Leader of the Green Party of Ontario and MPP for Guelph, was the first Green MPP elected to the Ontario Legislature in 2018. He was re-elected in 2022 and 2025.

Building a Fairer Ontario

Growing up on a farm, Mike was instilled with a passion for protecting the people and places he loves. At Queen’s Park, Mike works across party lines to crack down on corporate greed and advocate for affordable homes and communities, better public services and protections for Ontario’s farmland and natural spaces.

Mike has introduced bills that put everyday people over corporate profits and protect the jobs and industries that drive our economy.

This includes a bill to stop subsidizing oil and gas companies and another to legalize more kinds of homes in existing neighbourhoods.

Mike passed Ontario’s first Green law in 2019, which protects electric vehicle drivers by making it illegal to block EV charging stations.

Prior to entering politics, Mike was a successful entrepreneur, small business owner and early advocate of the local food movement. He founded multiple initiatives including Local Food Plus, WOW Foods and EarthDance Organics to connect sustainable farmers with Ontario households.

Mike lives in Guelph with his wife Sandy. They have two daughters.
