Elizabeth May will address her political future Monday after publicly musing about stepping down as leader of the Green Party of Canada. In fact, May's best result for her party was her first election as leader in 2008, when the party won 6.8 per cent of the national vote. Green Party Leader Elizabeth May, second from right, stands with then NDP leader Jack Layton, left, then Liberal leader Stéphane Dion, then Conservative leader Stephen Harper and then Bloc leader Gilles Duceppe prior to the English-language federal election debate in October 2008. She became the first elected Green MP in 2011, representing Saanich-Gulf Islands after losing two previous attempts. The question of whether she would do so as a party leader —or even as a Green — remains to be answered.
