Connecting Greens on the North Shore
Welcome to the web site of the North Vancouver Green Party of Canada Electoral District Association (EDA).
Our riding of ==> North Vancouver stretches from the Capilano River on the west to the Seymour River on the east. Founded in 2004, we have grown from a handful of volunteers to an enthusiastic team of over 200 members today.
