GreenPAC, a non-partisan non-profit organization with goals of building environmental leadership and government action in Canada, is endorsing two candidates in Okanagan ridings.
GreenPAC has officially endorsed Dan Albas, the Conservative candidate for the Central Okanagan – Similkameen – Nicola riding, and Richard Cannings, the NDP candidate for South Okanagan – West Kootenay.
GreenPAC’s website said they chose to endorse Albas as he had served as Vice-Chair of the House of Commons’ Environment Standing Committee from 2020-21. During that time he worked collaboratively with members of other parties to produce all-party reports on a variety of topics, while also enforcing the Canadians Environmental Protection Act.
Albas also served as Shadow Minister for Environment and Climate Change, and GreenPAC said while serving in that role Albas shared information about environmental challenges and solutions within his caucus, and is recognized as a key driver for the party’s climate policies.
