Andy Trotter owns an Architectural Design Firm in downtown Toronto, is a hockey dad, and son of former Liberal MPP James Trotter from the previous riding of Parkdale. Andy began canvassing with his father at the age of 4 and although he has been a strong Liberal all his life he now believes the Green Party offers the best solutions for many of the economic, social, energy based, and climate problems we face today.

Andy is a member of the Association of Architectural Technologists of Ontario with a BCIN. Through his firms he has extensive experience with the Toronto Building dpt. City Planning, Transportation, Urban Forestry, and the Toronto Ravine and Conservation Authority.

Small business, child care, affordable housing, and education are four of his main priorities. Andy has been a small business owner for the past 25 yrs and understands the difficulties of raising children in downtown Toronto and trying to keep a roof over their heads. This city can’t become a haven for the most fortunate. We need to do some serious work enforcing affordable units in all new building development and we need to get serious about rent control. Everyone keeps saying they are going to do something about this and nothing happens we need candidates that won’t back down. Education is the best way to help people achieve better incomes and get ahead. We need to help people of all ages get education, which means we need better day care.     Read more »

Ontario election leaders’ debate 2014

Rachel Power and Mike Schreiner see eye-to-eye

Last night’s debate was missing two things. Mike Schreiner, the Leader of the Green Party of Ontario, and a serious discussion about protecting our environment and natural resources.

Think Big. Expect better. Vote Green.

We are at a crossroads in Ontario. Old line parties squabble over little fixes while the rest of the world marches boldly into the 21st century.

Ontario deserves better — a single publicly funded school system, protecting our environment, and a sane way of doing politics.

Greens are making a difference in Canada and around the world. Vote green for for your kids, your community, your Ontario.

Rachel Power, Toronto-Danforth.  Go Green with Power!
