Scores of Green Party activists have responded to a push by 40 veteran Ontario Liberals to convince Mike Schreiner to defect to the Grits and run for their leadership.
“That is why we are taking this unprecedented step — to reachparty — to join the Ontario Liberals and run for our party’s leadership,” it said.
But the current Green leader said he hasn’t “set a date” for coming to a decision about whether to join the Liberals. Asked if he thought the courtship might lead to a merger of the Greens and Liberals, he said he didn’t “want to discuss hypotheticals.”MPPs Mitzie Hunter, and Ted Hsu, and MPs Yasir Naqvi, and Nathaniel Erskine-Smith are considering leadership bids.“At the same time, I know that we are an open party and we welcome people, and we have room in our party,” she said.
