Conclusion

Canada remains one of the best places in the world to live. Canadians are among the world’s most fortunate peoples. With our good fortune comes an obligation to the rest of the world and to our children.

Greens are committed to ensuring that we address the deficits that threaten our children’s future. We must ensure that our children are not burdened by our debts – our economic, social, and ecological debts. We have the potential to be the first country and the first generation to take meaningful steps to end poverty, to reward and expand the middle class, to improve the status of women, and to enter into a respectful relationship with First Nations, Metis, and Inuit peoples. We can be the people who set the pace for the transition away from carbon-polluting fuels and to brighter and more sustainable energy. We can be global mediators and peace-makers. We can change the world and rebuild the Canada we want. And, with your help, we will.
