Green Party at Pride Parade

The Green Party's involvement at the Toronto Pride Festival this year was a great success. We managed to have a zero-emission contingent with our leader Elizabeth May in a rickshaw, a Zem Bike that fits a family of four, a tandom bike from the Beaches-East York candidate Dave McMillan, and the rest of us dress up as the green superheros. We even got great coverage at Maclean Magazine.
