Kate Storey is the Green Party candidate for the federal election.
She says the green party has a goal to stop favouring corporate profits and work for the wellbeing of Canadians.
“Greens lead the way on the environment, obviously, but we also have a bold economic plan that will create jobs, build the economy, defend human rights and make life more affordable for all.”
Other issues the Green Party is looking to address includes, a federal minimum wage of 15 dollars per hour, bring in guaranteed livable income so everyone has the basics of life and main street businesses can thrive, and they want to get large corporations out of farming so young farmers can afford to buy land.
Storey adds that one of the major issues she’s heard are people starting to worry about climate change.
“We do hear a lot about that. It’s hard to see how it affects our life now, but we can see the kids, they’re striking, they understand the science, and we can understand that it has economic effects that are starting to take effect now. So a lot of people are talking about the future and that’s what the Green Party’s all about.”
Monday, October 21st is Election Day.
