Breaking News: Harper Campaigning in Elizabeth May's Riding

Despite his claims that he doesn't want a spring election, Stephen Harper made a campaign-style spending announcement in Elizabeth May's riding of Saanich--Gulf Islands yesterday morning.

With Conservative incumbent Gary Lunn in tow, Harper announced $155 million worth of funding for a new helicopter base in the riding.

He's clearly pulling out all the stops to keep Elizabeth May from becoming Canada's first Green MP.

Why? Because she'll be such a powerful advocate for all Canadians--not just for the environment, but on a broad range of economic and social issues.

I need your help to make sure she gets elected, despite Harper's vote-buying tactics.

Obviously the Green Party doesn't have $155 million to spend. Fortunately our positive message of hope is much easier to sell.

Your gift of $155, or whatever you can afford, will allow us to reach out to voters who are tired of being bribed with their own tax dollars. Voters who are fed up with the cynical opportunism of politics-as-usual. Voters who are ready for a change.

Polls show that she's neck-and-neck with Lunn. It's going to come down to the wire. Your donation could be the deciding factor.

Together, we can elect Elizabeth May and really change the climate in parliament.

Thank you so much for your support.
