Yukon Green Party


The Yukon Green Party is a territorial green political party in Yukon, Canada. It was inspired by the Green Party of Canada.
Its first leader was Kristina Calhoun, a stay-at-home mother, who has lived in Yukon since 2006. The party began at a meeting in November 2010, and was registered in February 2011.
Frank de Jong led the party as its interim leader in the 2016 general election. Its platform in that election included electoral reform, legalizing marijuana, ending public funding for Catholic schools, and introducing a carbon tax in Yukon that would be offset by monthly refund payments to Yukoners.
Frank de Jong has moved out of Yukon. The party will elect a new leader at a future annual general meeting.
