Green Party Leader David Coon Sworn in to NB Legislative Assembly
Our Principles
>Living within Our Ecological Means
A culture of cooperation, caring and understanding is essential to ending violence in our society. Rehabilitation rather than vengeance must be the goal of our justice system.
> Local Self-Reliance
We must have the opportunity and the responsibility as citizens to contribute to the common good, which requires that all have the capacity to participate in community life.
> Real Democracy
Everyone must have equal access to the necessities of life and be treated with dignity and respect. Treaties with First Nations must be honoured.
> Social Justice and Equality
We must be able to participate in decisions that affect our lives and be guaranteed that our votes are reflected in the make-up of the Legislative Assembly.
> Active Citizenship
Our communities should be in control of their own destinies, supported by strong local economies, and sustained by local sources of food and renewable energy.
> A Culture of Peace and Respect
We must live within the ecological limits of the Earth, while meeting our needs without threatening our children's future or the survival of other species.
