About the CA
Guelph Greens Constituency Association (CA)
The Guelph Greens CA exists as a volunteer organization to support local Ontario Greens candidates. Between provincial elections, we work to help build the Ontario we want to see by taking action in our local Guelph community. Anyone can volunteer with the CA!
CA Executives are also volunteers and are elected at our Annual General Meetings (AGM). Execs serve 2-year terms in the position they are elected to. We are often recruiting for new Executive members, so if you are interested in getting involved, you can submit your application here.
