Emma Norton for Dartmouth

I choose Dartmouth-Cole Harbour. I choose you.

The Liberals broke their promise on electoral reform, and are now telling us we have to vote for them out of fear. The last time the Conservatives had a shot in Dartmouth-Cole Harbour was in 1993. They came in second. Ever since, they've been in third place.... But they don't own our votes. We can choose to vote for a party that will fight for us and that will hold other parties to account. The NDP can defeat a Conservative government and stop the Liberals from taking us for granted. We can choose someone who's in it for us. Things have changed. #UpRiSingh

Who says the youth don't care about politics? Heading to Cole Harbour tonight. Look out for us in our orange toques... maybe we will be door-knocking in your neighbourhood! #elxn43 #youth #doorknocking #coleharbour

Things have changed. We can make different choices. #elxn43 #UpRiSingh #dartmouth #coleharbour #choice

Thank you so much, Cathy Jones for this endorsement! On almost every doorstep I'm talking with people about solutions for the climate emergency. In every school I've visited, climate change is on the minds of young and soon-to-be voters. And I do have solutions. I have been working on solutions for 11 of my 29 years on this planet. There is a right and a wrong way to do things. I've organized rallies with activists, I've sat in boardrooms with bureaucrats, I've talked to co...al miners in Cape Breton, and workers at coal units in Trenton--we can tackle this emergency without leaving anyone behind. We can make better choices. We can end subsidies to fossil fuel companies and re-invest it in low-carbon solutions. We can create 300,000 new green jobs. We can retrofit half of our buildings by 2030 and make them more energy efficient. We can lower energy bills. We can have fare-free public transit in communities and between them. We can make our grid net-carbon free by 2030. We can invest in the restoration and rehabilitation of our natural ecosystems. I'm 29 years old and I'm worried. I worry about our lakes, when they close due to algae blooms and e. coli. I worry when smoke from forest fires in Alberta clouds the sky over Nova Scotia. I worry for our future. But I also have hope. Hope that we can mitigate this crisis and hold each other up while we're doing it. And I have hope from the thousands of students who organized the climate strike in Halifax. And I have hope from the people in Dartmouth-Cole Harbour, who I speak with every day, and tell me they are want to see real action in Ottawa. This campaign has been the most hopeful thing I have done in a very long time. We can choose a better future. Let's choose that on Oct. 21st.
