This document lays out a comprehensive blueprint for the kind of Canada we want in 2020 and how we get there from here. Developed by the Green Party's 31-member Shadow Cabinet with input from experts, activists and citizens who participated in cross-Canada policy workshops, it presents leading-edge thinking and realistic solutions for all the issues facing Canadians – from foreign policy to forestry, from taxation to toxic chemicals.

Ecological Wisdom
We acknowledge that human beings are part of the natural world and we respect the specific values of all forms of life, including non-human species.

Non-Violence
We declare our commitment to non-violence and strive for a culture of peace and cooperation between states.

Social Justice
We assert that the key to social justice is the equitable distribution of resources to ensure that all have full opportunities for personal and social development.

Sustainability
We recognize the scope for the material expansion of society within the biosphere, and the need to maintain biodiversity through the use of renewable resources.

Participatory Democracy
We strive for a democracy in which all citizens have the right to express their views, and are able to directly participate in decisions which affect their lives.

Respect for Diversity
We honour and value equally the Earth's biological and ecological diversity together with the context of individual responsibility toward all beings.
