Pedneault – who previously served as the party’s deputy leader from 2022 to 2024 – is proposing bold policies on a range of issues Canadians are facing, from U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff threats to the high cost of living.
The former journalist and human rights investigator, who has spent the better part of the last decade and a half working and living abroad, believes more progressive ideas are needed) in this election. But the Greens are lagging in the polls, and Pedneault is running) in a Liberal stronghold … So how will they be effective if they don’t make it to the House of Commons?
