Green Party Statement for Christmas 2020

TORONTO  – “On behalf of the Green Party of Canada and our Caucus, I’d like to wish Christians everywhere a peaceful and joyful Christmas celebration,” said Green Party Leader Annamie Paul. “This anticipated time of year is usually marked by gatherings with families and friends to celebrate holiday traditions. However, this year, and perhaps for the first time, many will not be able to gather in person with loved ones. I know that, despite this, people will be able to find innovative ways to celebrate and to come together virtually. 

“The holidays can be a lonely time of year for those living alone, or experiencing difficulty, especially this year. To help spread the warmth this Christmas, we can all find ways to extend a hand to help those in need in our communities. May our generosity of

spirit spread comfort and joy during this holiday season. From all of us at the Green  Party – Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!”
