		The Green party is firmly on the side of public health care, along with the NDP and in contrast to the Conservatives and (probably) the Liberals.
		There is a note here that you can find more on their website, but since their platform is already 63 pages long In any case, I’m pretty sure we can trust the Green Party to reduce waste — whether we can trust them to do in a way we can afford is another question.

		Like all Green parties we are committed to the four basic pillars of our movement: a sustainable ecology, social and economic equity, grassroots participatory democracy, and peace, non-violence and disarmament.
		As the once progressive New Democratic Party moved steadily to the right and became the chief provincial supporter of big business interests, and continued to ignore mounting ecological problems, it was inevitable that a new popular movement and party would emerge.
