We believe that people should vote based on the decision of their local constituents after a process of collective discussion to establish the line forward. Our program for democratic renewal aims to end the domination of the electoral system by the political parties. |
| Nancy MacBain |
Yes |
The NDP is the only party I have ever supported. I am comfortable carrying the NDP banner in this election because my personal beliefs and values mirror those of the NDP.
At the same time, I am a person of integrity and conviction. I would not blindly follow a NDP policy out of loyalty to the party. I also believe that an MP's first responsibility is to his or her constituents. |
| Peter Ormond |

The Greens are not like any of the other three major parties in Canada in that our candidate voices are not censured by the old boys club, and we aren't given censured soundbites to feed to the media. Therefore, no, I would not feel bound to vote along party lines. However, if you review Vision Green, our policy platform available on our website, you'll wonder why Canada, one of the world's wealthiest countries, is not taking steps today by investing in sustainable infrastructure and communities that foster healthy local communities and improve the lives of citizens within in. It will be a great day when elected Green politicians are in a position to vote along party lines. |
