Friends and members of Saanich Gulf Island Greens - it is time to celebrate! This year, the month of May marks TEN amazing years since Elizabeth May was elected as Canada’s first Green MP!

Join the SGI Greens at 7 pm on Friday May 14 to reminisce with speakers and artists from across Canada to honour our unique and revered Member of Parliament.

In recognition of this special occasion, a gathering of exceptional Canadians will be joining us for songs, stories and poetry. Come and join these amazing people for the party:
