2024 Federal and Young Greens Council Elections
Electing the representatives of the Green Party of Canada's members
Lilian Barraclough (she/her/they/them)
I have been a member of the Green Party of Canada since I was first old enough to be in high school and I have since proceeded in academic and professional directions in line with Green values. As climate justice activist, researcher, and organizer, I strongly believe in the value of participatory democracy and true Green values. Having recently moved back to Ontario, where I am from, I am eager to support the continuously increasing Green wave in the province and advocate for better youth inclusion and governance within the party. Ontario is my home, and I have community ties throughout the province including Southern Ontario, where I live; Eastern Ontario, where I spent all of my summers growing up; and Northern Ontario where some of my family is from. I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to advance the Young Greens Council as the Ontario Representative.
Experience and Skills
I have been involved in the Green movement for many years. Previously, I was one of the Youth Representatives on the Executive of the Halifax Electoral District Association, the Policy Convenor for the Green Party of Nova Scotia, and a candidate for office during the 2021 Nova Scotia Provincial election. I have also volunteered on many campaigns including as the Youth Engagement Chair for Jo-Ann Roberts' campaign in Halifax in 2019; as the Volunteer Lead and a Policy Researcher on Amita Kuttner's campaign for leadership in 2020; and as a canvassing volunteer with local municipal candidates in Halifax Regional Municipality. Additionally, I have experience on multiple non-profit boards, as a Secretary, member of Finance committees, and communications. I value listening to others, collaborating, and operative from a consensus-based decision making framework and feel that I would bring empathy, kindness, experience, and an openness to the Young Greens Council.
