Two Candidates Running for Green Party Leadership, Winner to Be Announced Nov. 14
Morrice is one of two approved candidates as the Greens begin a five-month contest to replace Elizabeth May, with voting set for Nov. 2-13.
- On Wednesday, former Kitchener Centre MP Mike Morrice announced his candidacy for Green Party leadership, joining Ottawa's Nira Dookeran as one of two approved candidates.
- Green Party Leader Elizabeth May announced in 2025 she would step down after leading the party since 2022, prompting the official launch of the five-month leadership race on June 11, 2026.
- Dookeran brings a 12-year history with the party as an organizer and candidate; both candidates must sign up 200 new members and raise at least $15,000 by Sept. 30 to qualify.
- Party members will cast ballots from Nov. 2 to Nov. 13 using a ranked ballot system, with the Green Party announcing the new leader on Nov. 14, 2026.
- Despite losing his Kitchener Centre seat in April 2025 by 358 votes to Conservative Kelly DeRidder, Morrice has already been declared the Green candidate for the next federal election.
