Women care about a wide range of issues - climate change, social justice. What the Green Party tries to do is apply gender analysis to a whole lot of questions that people might not think of as women's issues. For instance, women in developing countries are the most vulnerable to climate crisis.

We've certainly always been a feminist party, with strong feminist principles.

The Lester B. Pearson era is what I hope to replicate.

I really think a minority Parliament delivers better democracy in Canada when parties are prepared to cooperate.

The most important thing is guaranteed livable income, which will take a while to bring in because it means all the provinces have to participate.

One thing is that you won't get climate action without equity, and Greens around the world have always understood this. This has been the dividing point between the green party of France and Emmanuel Macron: You can't get climate policy without equity.

It's very clear the Conservative party does not want to move to real climate action.

I want a group of Green MPs who will demonstrate to Canadians that it's possible to be respectful, ethical, hard working and actually stick to principle.

The reality of the Green party is that we are a party committed to bringing forward big ideas, new ideas and demonstrating by our conduct in parliament and through the election that we really want to work for Canadians, work across party lines, work across jurisdictions.

Ah, the first NAFTA was really, had a lot of disastrous elements for Canada's environment.

I don't like protecting pharmaceutical industries and increasing their profits and making our drugs cost more. If the U.S. Democrats could get rid of those problems I'd be much happier.

I loved practising law when I practised law.

But if we keep doing politics the way we're doing politics, and we keep doing climate action the way we're doing climate action, we will not have a history that judges us because we, certainly as a civilization, won't be here.

But Alberta has the best potential of any province for solar energy. It has enormous potential for wind power. And so replacing coal in Alberta with wind and solar is totally doable, and good for their economy.

Andrew Scheer talks about an energy corridor. So do I, but his corridor is for pipelines and mine is an electricity grid that's running 100 per cent on renewable energy.

I've been working with every single government since June 1992 to try to get climate action.

There's a lot of propaganda that contaminates a discussion around what we should do about pipelines, how our economy may or may not be dependent on exports of raw bitumen.

Justin Trudeau certainly understands climate science, as do his ministers. But they're refusing to take action on it because of short-term political concerns.

I certainly know that the NDP and the Liberals talk about understanding climate science; they just haven't put forward anything that suggests they actually understand it.

Whether we make it a condition or just through persuasion or just through popular support, whatever it takes, we really do need to shift through a system of voting where the way the Canadian public votes is the way the Canadian Parliament is formed after the election.

It's clear that the Green party loves Quebecers deeply. At the same time, we are Canadians!

I don't use the word 'lying' easily.

I was part of Environment Canada's work to stop acid rain, create national parks, clean up the Great Lakes, develop new environmental legislation and negotiate the treaty that saved the ozone layer.

We cannot ever accept a government that thinks they can get away with tiny targets on climate which they then don't achieve.
