Green Lantern

The Green Party candidates are a hardy bunch. They shine on in spite of limited (so far) electoral acceptance. They keep coming back for more (reuse, reduce, recycle?). This is the case for veteran Green candidate Ian Gregson who is running in Burnaby-Douglas.

Gregson, an employee at Simon Fraser University, has sought elected office as a Green candidate for MLA in 2001 and 2005. He is currently tracking his experience of not using a car.

At this point, Gregson is the only new addition to the Douglas race. MP Bill Siksay of the NDP, Billy Cunningham of the Liberals, and George Drazenovic of the Conservatives also contested the June 2004 race.

That may be incorrect. According to the Green Party website Ray Power is running. I remeber hearing Ian Gregson say he's not running.

Did he loose a nomination race? Can any of the Greens in Burnaby confirm or deny this?
