Green Party supporters won’t be able to hear their leader at the Provincial Leaders’ Debate on Sept 20, so Frank de Jong is giving them an alternative.

The Green Party of Ontario is throwing a party for all Green Party supporters where he will respond in real time to the questions being posed during the debate.  Results will be broadcast over the Internet.
