“It’s not that easy be’n Green.” Kermit T Frog, You Tube
“With all their faults, trade unions have done more for humanity than any other organization of men that ever existed. They have done more for decency, for honesty, for education, for the betterment of the race, for the developing of character in man, than any other association of men.” Clarence Darrow
“I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area, and you multiply, and multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet, you are a plague, and we are the cure.” Agent Smith
“I have no Politics. I am for the Party that is out of Power, no matter which one it is.” Will Rogers
“The most practical kind of politics is the politics of decency.” Theodore Roosevelt

Larry Waldinger says: “Saskatchewan has been good to me, and I would like to give back through the Green Party of Saskatchewan (GPS).” He is proud to say he was born in “Pile of Bones” (Regina). He grew up in Saskatchewan and credits the prairie culture for his: “solid work ethic, appreciation for nature, respect for others, healthy whole, and stick-to-it-iveness”. The politics of Saskatchewan have been an inspiration to him: “Saskatchewan has a rich history of strong independence, standing up against outside forces, and a drive to do what is correct.” Larry wishes to harness these home grown qualities to help continue Saskatchewan’s legacy in Saskatoon-Sutherland.
Larry’s education and career path have prepared him well to represent the people in the Saskatoon Sutherland constituency. He first experienced small business success at the age of eighteen when he bought a taxi. The “School of Hard Knocks” experience as a taxi driver was an education in itself and also financed a return to more formal education. Larry majored in psychology. He graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a BA and later received a teaching credential from one of the four universities and colleges he attended. He was on the dean’s honor list. Larry has studied, travelled, and worked internationally, and those experiences can all be leveraged locally. For years he dedicated his life to teaching junior high school math to metropolitan, inner-city students. While teaching, Larry established a small service business on the side and built it up to a “best in class operation” in a competitive, major market. The experience would make him a shrewd negotiator for the people in his constituency. He is also a published author in the field of corporate law. Larry has honed his decision making, consensus building, and communication skills to be the effective leader he is today.
The management style Larry Waldinger favors is to lead by example, and nowhere has this been more effective than his work with GPS. Regarding the personal, life style choices he has made in his commitment to environmental and social causes he says: “There are big things we can do, and there are little things we can do.” Larry has consistently done both and he will continue to do more. He would be glad to tell you about it directly.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns Larry invites you to contact him or any other of the fine people listed on this site. If you would like to help advance environmental and social causes please get actively involved. Your donations to the Green Party of Saskatchewan or the Green Party of Canada can make a huge difference too.
