Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston Greens have chosen Calvin Neufeld as their candidate in the September 20th Federal election.
Neufeld was nominated Sunday (August 15th), the same day the election was announced.
The Greens are planning an environmentally-friendly campaign that also respects COVID protocols.
Election signs will be recycled from past campaigns, and outdoor “meet the candidate” events will take the place of door-knocking.
InsideOttawaValley.com attended the weekend media scrum, where Neufeld said that he hoped this would be a “change” election, where climate change will be top of mind.
Neufeld is well-known in the riding as an author, activist, and public speaker.
If elected, he would become Canada’s first transgender MP.
