April 5
~ meet with Hydrogen and Fuel Cell mover and shaker in Vancouver,
~ meet with one of many political allies, The Green Party believes in the state regulation off marijuana and the state taxation on production and distribution ... the BC Liquor Board is one model to consider for marijuana public management
~now let me make this clear ... I'm running to promote renewable energy, tax shifting, the Genuine Progress Indicator and sustainability within a generation ... The Green Party believes in long term social change and change in our attitudes to marijuana is one aspect of that ... we believe the feds are moving in the right direction ...

April 6 ~ David Suzuki confirms that he will introduce Senator Bob Brown, video shoot for website, Royal Roads U re-union "nothing like being around high achieving friends" ...

The highlight of my year ... meeting David Suzuki ... Inspirational speaking ... Suzuki never stops ... we have some work to do yet before he ever supports us ... too bad Suzuki will NEVER endorse a political party ...
