Mike Schreiner

Mike Schreiner, Leader of the Green Party of Ontario and MPP for Guelph, is the first Green MPP elected to the Ontario Legislature in 2018.

Growing up on a farm, Mike was instilled with a passion for protecting people, animals, and the planet at a young age. As the Leader of the Ontario Greens since 2009, Mike’s constituents recognize him as a champion for climate action, income equality, and honest, transparent leadership.

The Ontario You Want.
The Leadership We Need.

Mike is active at Queen’s Park, working across party lines to be a strong advocate for climate action, local food and water initiatives, affordable housing, protecting Ontario’s frontline healthcare workers, small business, and mental health.

In his time there he introduced bills to cap Ontario’s carbon emissions, while making reporting on yearly emissions’ numbers mandatory; eliminate sick notes; conserve drinking water; and get big money out of politics.

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

I chose to lead the Green Party of Ontario because we do politics differently. We are committed to honesty, integrity and making decisions that put people first.

Mike, his wife Sandy, and their two daughters now like to spend their free time gardening, hiking, fishing, cycling, and staying active.
