Green Party needs to be in leaders debate!

The Green Party leader's exclusion from the televised political debate is absurd. The networks buckled because Harper, Dion and Duceppe said they wouldn't show up if May was invited. Come on -- we don't allow our kids to behave that way, so why would we let our leaders?

This issue isn't settled. You can help get the Greens inside the tent and involved in the discussion. We need them there because they will help keep climate change front and centre. If you agree, you need to tell that to Harper, Dion, Duceppe and the TV networks. Here's how to contact them:
