Green Party Deputy Leader Jonathan Pedneault is calling for sweeping economic and environmental reforms, including a guaranteed livable income and an end to fossil fuel investments. At a press conference on Thursday at which the party’s formal election platform was unveiled, he said Canadians are being left behind while corporate profits soar, and proposed a national clean energy grid powered by wind, solar, and geothermal sources. Pedneault also rejected nuclear energy as risky and unnecessary, calling instead for immediate investment in proven, renewable technologies.
