Guided tour of the green initiatives at the Trisan Centre following meeting.

Mike will be talking with entrepreneurs about the benefits of a green economy and will be discussing The Green Party of Ontario's Five-Point Plan for Ontario's future. The new plan confronts energy costs head-on, an issue front of mind for Ontarians facing rising energy bills. It also includes support for Ontario's economy, with a call for lower income taxes and a freeze in post-secondary tuition costs.

"Ontario needs a practical Green vision now more than ever. We need to tackle the challenges facing our generation - rising energy prices, climate change and spiralling health care costs. Only the Green Party has a vision to turn these challenges into opportunities to rebuild our local economies, reconnect our communities and promote the health and well-being of all Ontarians," - Mike Schreiner.

The Green Party platform offers a bold vision for a financially, socially and environmentally sustainable Ontario:

1. Creating jobs for a twenty first century economy
2. Harnessing safe, affordable energy to power our communities
3. Promoting access to quality, sustainable health care close to home
4. Feeding our communities by championing local farms
5. Delivering government that works for people
