Support Stephen Leahy in Durham
Stephen is committed to the Green Party's vision of a prosperous and healthy future for Durham and all of Canada. As an environmental journalist, he has covered topics such as climate change, agriculture and the economics behind environmental issues for over 15 years. His 10 years before that in business and marketing lets him easily dispel the "tree hugger" cliche.
In short, he gets it. The established parties don't. It's that simple.
Please take a few moments to learn more about Stephen and his appeal for support in the current federal election campaign. A few dollars, a few hours, it all makes a difference and gets the message out: a Green vote is a vote for tomorrow.
Spread the word – please send this letter from Stephen to everyone you know living in Durham riding.
Your donation is leveraged
When you donate to the Green Party, you get a tax receipt that entitles you to a refund of up to 75% at tax time. For example, a $400 donation gets a refund of $300 in your tax return (see the schedule below).
Another way to look at it is, figure out how much you can afford to give, then multiply it by 4.
How to contribute
Election financing laws require cheques for amounts above $20. Make cheques payable to "Durham Federal Green Party Associaton".
