Darcie Lanthier

In the last ten years, I've run twice as a Candidate, acted as the Treasurer, Deputy Leader, Campaign Manager and interim Leader for the GP-PEI, winner of the 2018 Legacy Award.

I have been organizing for the GPC for this decade as well. I've attended every BGM since 2012, served two terms as the PEI Rep on Federal Council, Chairing both the Finance and Convention Committees. Winner of the GPC Community Service Award in 2014.

In the 2019, I ran federally for the first time, I quadrupled the vote and finished second in a Riding that has been Liberal since 1988. Our campaign was data driven. We knocked on over 12,000 doors, placed 300 lawn signs and took the time to ID those voters. Any future Green on the ballot in Charlottetown will have a great head start. 

In 2019, we identified housing as the most important issue in Charlottetown, the vacancy rate had been the lowest in the country at 0.2%. People just had no place to live, rents skyrocketed. I used my volunteer time to address the housing issue and have had considerable success (about $10,000/week) helping tenants take action against illegal rent increases. The project is called My Old Apartment and includes PEI's only rental registry. Find it on Twitter @ApartmentOld and at MyOldApartment.org.

My paid work is in Renewable Energy, I am a Solar PV specialist who also runs a $2,000,000 Fund for Community Solar. I get things done.
