Federal Green Party Leader Elizabeth May

and NIPR candidate, Jessica Wegg, to Visit the North Island!

August 26th and 27th, 2024

Federal Green Party Leader Elizabeth May is coming to North Vancouver Island. She will be accompanied by the North Island Powell River candidate Jessica Wegg.  As many of you know, Elizabeth has spent her adult life and much of her youth tirelessly promoting social justice, the environment, human rights and fair economic policies. As an author, lawyer, environmentalist and human rights activist she has served Canadians since the 70’s, and has inspired a generation of like-minded people at home and around the globe. https://www.greenparty.ca/en

Jessica Wegg, Green Party candidate for North Island Powell River, is one such inspired woman. A resident of K’omoks, Jessica is a wife, the mother of two young children, human rights lawyer and climate activist. Jessica has worked with sexual abuse victims and been a strong advocate for prisoner’s rights. She is passionate about the outdoors and spends a great deal of time there with her husband Jon and children. With that passion comes her commitment to our children and grandchildren to make our nation, and the earth, a better place for them to grow and thrive. https://jessicawegg.ca/
