Please read the following statement from Elizabeth May, MP for Saanich–Gulf Islands and Leader of the Green Party of Canada, recognising Mother’s Day:
“I have a very full heart on this wonderful Mother’s Day. Cate is in Sidney so I have the best of all treats, at home with John and Xo and Cate! Let’s celebrate and show extra love to Mother Earth. I loved that the Biodiversity Convention decision text from COP15 in Montreal, December 2022, invokes the protection of Mother Earth by name. As said here in Target 16, “all people … live well in harmony with Mother Earth.” To all who are mothers, and grandmothers, have a great day and put your feet up!”
