Change happens when committed individuals decide to make a difference. Then, they take action, inspiring and supporting those around them to believe a better future is possible and achievable. True leaders understand that change is difficult—it takes time, dedication, and a clear sense of purpose, especially in moments of conflict, uncertainty, and challenge.
Islanders are looking for leadership that faces these challenges head on, with bold solutions, and creative, people-centred actions that foster healthy and prosperous communities.
I have worked to make positive change in my community all of my life, through advocacy, elected position, and decisive action. I have never been afraid to speak truth to power, or take positions that are not easy but are necessary to make positive change. I am also not afraid of the hard work required to build momentum through networks, membership, media, and community engagement.
There is a growing hunger for political leadership that is prepared to take clear and bold positions on the challenges of the day, and that will make commitments to policy and action that deliver hope. I am seeking the leadership of the Green Party of PEI as I believe that my life experience and proven leadership skills can provide the guidance and vision to make the changes we need for the Island we love.
