Green Party of New Brunswick // Parti Vert du Nouveau-Brunswick

Shadow Cabinet Announced

Green Party Shadow Cabinet

Interim Green Party Leader Greta Doucet retains the role of Seniors advocate in the shadow cabinet.  «We have a team of passionate New Brunswick advocates who will bring forward ideas that will provide real solutions to the problems that New Brunswick faces.

In its very first election, the New Brunswick Green Party received 5% of the vote in the 49 ridings in which it ran – the best showing for any provincial Green party in their first election.

Members of the shadow cabinet are ‘advocates’ rather than critics, because that will be their role – to advocate ideas to solve problems and to advocate ideas for change.

• Health  – Jim Wolstenholme
• Sustainable Finance – Janice Harvey  & Jack MacDougall
