Richard Willott
Calgary Confederation
I am a retired geophysicist who has lived in Calgary for over 60 years, most of that in the Dalhousie community. In the last decade or so, I have seen the political landscape deteriorate significantly, and my concern has led to action. I am also greatly concerned about the strains being put on our environment and the need to prepare for climate change.
The Six Principles shared by Green parties around the world struck a chord deep within me. These are (in no particular order):
– Sustainability
– Non-violence
– Social Justice
– Respect for Diversity
– Ecological Wisdom
– Participatory Democracy
After working on some very successful sign campaigns (including Alberta Beyond Coal and Defend Alberta Parks, for which I was the sign manager) and attending protests (e.g., against coal development on the eastern slopes of the Rockies), I felt that I had to step up as a candidate.
I believe that without more transparency within the political sphere and more universal representation within government, without political reform, we will never be able to make significant progress with the Six Principles, which I consider key to making this a better world. I am prepared to work hard towards this.
