Big congrats to Elizabeth May on her re-election in Saanich—Gulf Islands! We’re heartbroken Mike Morrice won’t return to Parliament. His integrity and drive for justice will be missed. Endless thanks to Jonathan, Paul & all our candidates who inspired across Canada.

The image depicts a scenic view of Saanich, BC, with a dark green overlay. In the centre of the image is a photo of Elizabeth May inside a light green semicircle. Below her image is large white text that reads, “Congratulations!” followed by smaller white text in all caps that reads, “to Green Party Leader.” Large white text reading “Elizabeth May” appears inside a green bar that matches the width of the semicircle above. Below this is smaller white text in all caps that reads, “on being re-elected in Saanich–Gulf Islands!”

This decision doesn’t just undermine science, it sidelines the people working to confront the climate crisis with facts, evidence, and global collaboration. We refuse to accept a future where fossil fuels come before the truth.

Graphic of a dark green background with a statement from the Green Party of Canada on climate funding cuts. Text reads "Statement from the Green Party of Canada

The Green Party of Canada condemns Liberal cuts to climate science after spending over $34 billion on the Trans Mountain Pipeline.

The Liberal government has pulled funding for Canadian scientists to attend critical Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) conferences, calling it too expensive, just after spending billions on pipelines."

Graphic of a dark green background with a statement from the Green Party of Canada on climate funding cuts. Text reads "This is climate hypocrisy. Canadian scientists play a vital role in shaping the world’s understanding of the climate crisis. Cutting $680,000 in support makes the government’s priorities clear: fossil fuels over facts.

Canada should be leading on climate science, not turning its back on it. The Green Party stands with scientists, with truth, and with real climate leadership."
