2007 Jun 20: Green Party of Ontario nomination meeting

The provincial side of Toronto-Danfoth is having its nomination meeting for the upcoming election. Two very enthusiastic candidates, Sharon Howarth and Patrick Kraemer are competing to run in the October 10th election. Frank de Jong, the leader of GPO, will also be there. Please come and support them, and be ready to sign up for a GPO membership if you do not have one yet, in order to help choose the candidate.

Hope to see you there!
