- Chris_Bradshaw abstract "Christopher John (Chris) Bradshaw (born 1944 in Vancouver, British Columbia) is a Canadian politician and business person. He served as interim leader of the Green Party of Canada from 2001 to 2003, and has sought public office as a candidate of the Green Party of Canada and the Green Party of Ontario.Bradshaw has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science, and worked for General Motors of Canada following his graduation. He subsequently moved to Ottawa, Ontario, where he worked as community relations specialist for the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton, retiring in 1995. He then co-founded Vrtucar, a car-sharing service in Ottawa, in May 2000, but has since sold his share in the group.Bradshaw promotes walking as a form of transportation. In 1988, he started Ottawalk, the first pedestrian advocacy group in the continent. He was recognized by America Walks in 2001 as the "father of pedestrian advocacy in North America."[citation needed]In 2001, after Joan Russow resigned the leadership of the federal Green Party, Bradshaw was appointed interim leader. Bradshaw helped organize the 2003 Green Party Leadership Convention in Ottawa, and was responsible for moving the party's central office to Ottawa from Toronto. In 2003, he was succeeded as party leader by Jim Harris.Bradshaw first ran for public office in the Ontario provincial election of 1999, receiving 1,231 votes in Ottawa Centre. In the 2003 election, he finished fourth with 3,821 votes (7.75%) in the same riding, the highest vote percentage of any Green Party candidate in the province.Federally, Bradshaw first ran for office in the general election of 2000. Again campaigning in Ottawa Centre, he received 1529 votes for a fifth-place finish. In 2002, while serving as party leader, he contested a by-election in Bonavista—Trinity—Conception, Newfoundland but received only 139 votes. Bradshaw ran in Newfoundland in an effort to foster a genuinely national party: there has been a history of division between the Terra Nova Green Party, which is the Newfoundland & Labrador Green Party Association, and the federal Green Party.In the 2004 federal election, Bradshaw campaigned in the rural Ottawa Valley riding of Leeds—Grenville, replacing Jerry Heath who unexpectedly declined to run. Despite the last-minute substitution, Bradshaw received 5.5% of the votes cast (2,722), a significant improvement over the Green Party's previous 1.73%.".
