Alex for Green Party

Alex and fam at Youth Climate Action on March 15th.

I’m seeking the nomination to stand as the Green Party of Canada candidate for the riding of Guelph in the October 2019 federal election. Here’s why.

It’s all about the future, and ensuring our children have one. I’m father and stepfather to seven kids from age five to 23. I’m deeply concerned that we’re rolling the dice by degrading the environment – most significantly through climate change. I’ve dedicated my career to fixing that, and running for office is the next sensible step. I want to make restoring the environment a top priority of the federal government, for the sake of my children and all children living today and tomorrow.
