Cultivating the grassroots

It looks like the province's political green-horn-thumbs are thinking about sewing a few seeds in Victoria. Last night, Victoria Green activists gathered at The Beagle Pub to discuss organizing a similarly-coloured local arty that will run candidates in the provincial capital and surrounding municipalities during the upcoming civic elections. According to our spies, those in attendance included ex-Victoria city councillor Al Craighead, provincial party chair Alan Dolan, former Green candidates Ariel Lade and Jane Sterk, gadfly Bernard Schulmann and campaigner Steve Burtch. It is expected Mr. Burtch, a principle of Netscribe Communications Inc., will be the civic party's chief organizer.
