The last time I looked at the Greens, they seemed anti-science with their anti-nuclear leanings, and Elizabeth May’s pseudoscience tendencies. There was also that whole mess with Annamie Paul that revealed some infighting. Looks like May at least tried to pass the party on to a newer generation with Pedneault but that failed too.
I’d love to see a competent Green party, even if I wouldn’t necessarily vote for them, because I would hate Canada to turn into a two-party system like the US. The more serious contenders, the better. Hopefully leaders like Emily Lowan can turn things around for them.
I had to remind myself about the details surrounding Annamie Paul. Based on this article, there’s a good chance that the party is still pro-Zionist, which makes it a no go for me unless a newer leader puts an end to that.
