Hello,
Does anyone have any information about the 1993 GPO leadership campaign? Specifically: what was the final vote total, were there any other candidates besides Jim Harris and Frank de Jong, where did it take place, how many were in attendance? CJCurrie 00:54, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] History
Unlike the other Canadian Green Parties, there is almost no history on the page. Stories of Michael Tetgemeyer's (sp.?) attempted takeover, the restructuring of the party into an electorally focused organization represented by its leader, etc. would sure be helpful. I know that Ontario law required that the party always have a registered leader so they used the federal party's muzzled leader system for their first ten years. Someone with the details on this would sure be a help. Also, although the ecocapitalists were ultimately triumphant, this wasn't a foregone conclusion; how that policy consensus emerged would also be an interesting thing to learn.
Who added the line "Many key members are recruits from the former centrist Progressive Conservative Party of Canada..." when talking about former associations of GPO candidates? Calling the PC part "centrist" is really only doable if one were to only look at the so-called "Red Tories". Otherwise the party was definitely right of centre in Canadian politics. 67.43.141.179 22:08, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
I updated the history to add some important details. I included sources and minded my spelling. There is no reason to delete my edits. 74.14.147.245 (talk) 03:54, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- I can't speak for her, I don't know why she did it, but again you failed to cite sources. J (talk) 03:55, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
J READ THE EDITS I gave atleast 5 sources in my edits. ACTUALLY READ IT PLEASE Political junky (talk) 03:59, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Read the third and fifth paragraphs in the history section where I did the edits. In those TWO paragraphs, I gave three sources...Three Sources J, Is that not enough? Political junky (talk) 04:02, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Greenjoe, once again, your reason isn't valid for deleting my updates on GPO history. I don't think I included even one elections ontario source, except for the 2007 election where I directed you to that page. Please stop deleting article for no good reason. Your standing in the way of progress. 74.14.147.245 (talk) 05:13, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
- I really think most of the recent "History" additions should be moved over to History of the Green Party of Ontario. J (talk) 19:34, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] 2007 AGM
Just got back from the AGM! miss me? I'm updating the page , we elected a new president "Lawson Hunter" Ron Yurick is now Northerm rep (male) and I'm going to do a paragraph in recent history on some of the stuff that happened since nobody else here was there. :) 74.14.147.245 (talk) 02:36, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
- There's a press release on it, so that's fine.
[edit] Edits I made
I added fact tags, they belong until citations are added under our verifiability policy. As well I removed the reference to the general Elections Ontario website because the main page isn't acceptable enough. J (talk) 19:37, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
