Timeline

1549

Carr ran in the two-member electoral district (called a riding in Canada) of Vancouver-Point Grey, and finished last in a field of eight candidates with 1549 votes.

1952

Adriane Carr (born 1952) is a Canadian academic, activist and green politician.

1980

She earned a master's degree in urban geography from the University of British Columbia in 1980 and taught at Langara College.

1983

She was a founding member of the Green Party of British Columbia (BC Green Party) and was the party's first leader, then known as "spokesperson", from 1983 to 1985.

Carr was a co-founder of the Green Party of British Columbia, the first Green Party in North America, and served as its unpaid spokesperson (leader) from 1983 to 1985.

She was the party's leader in the 1983 provincial election, held shortly after the party's founding.

1984

She also ran as a Green candidate for the Vancouver School Board in 1984, but after this, besides maintaining her membership, she had little further involvement with the provincial Green Party until the late 1990s.

1989

She left teaching at Langara College in 1989 to work full-time for the Western Canada Wilderness Committee, having been a volunteer for WCWC from shortly after it was co-founded by her later-to-be husband, Paul George and Richard Krieger.

During her time working for WCWC, among other things, Carr led the organization's international campaigns and played a lead role in bringing together First Nations, environmental groups, logging companies and all levels of government in the successful campaign to establish a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in Clayoquot Sound.

1991

The party's largest number of votes was received in Saanich-Gulf Islands, one of only 17 constituencies that had been voting Liberal since 1991.

1992

From 1992 until 2000, WCWC (now called the Wilderness Committee) was led by a four-person committee of paid employees comprising Carr, Paul George, activist Joe Foy, and the organization's chief financial officer.

1993

The BC Green Party was led from 1993 to 2000 by Stuart Parker (whom Carr endorsed during both of his runs for the party leadership in 1993 and 1997) and its ideological direction was largely guided by former members of the New Democratic Party during this period.

1996

The Green Party received 12.4 percent of the provincial vote in this election, a significant increase from its 2 percent total in the 1996 BC election.

1999

Carr emerged as a rival to Parker at the party's 1999 policy convention.

2000

In 2000, she became the party's leader again.

Carr left the organization in 2000 to run for the leadership of the Green Party of British Columbia (BC Green Party).

Carr has been the BC Green Party leader on two separate occasions.

Parker was defeated in a non-confidence motion at an annual general meeting held in Squamish in March 2000.

Tom Hetherington was selected as interim leader by the new directors elected at that March meeting.

A leadership contest was held, and on 23 September 2000, Carr defeated Andy Shadrack and Wally du Temple to become party leader for a second time.

2001

Carr ran in the 2001 election in the riding of Powell River-Sunshine Coast, against former Liberal leader and then-NDP cabinet minister Gordon Wilson.

She was included in the televised leaders' debate along with Liberal leader Gordon Campbell and NDP premier Ujjal Dosanjh.

The Greens hoped to be viewed as a progressive alternative for voters.

Carr finished third in her riding with 6316 votes (27%), against 6349 for Wilson (28%) and 9904 for victorious Liberal Harold Long.

2002

In 2002 she became the proponent of an initiative under the Recall and Initiative Act to hold a referendum on whether or not to adopt MMP in BC, dubbed the Free Your Vote campaign.

Having obtained nearly 100,000 signatures in support of the initiative, Free Your Vote became the largest voting reform organization in the province and increased awareness and support amongst Greens and non-Greens alike for electoral reform.

When the Citizens' Assembly on Electoral Reform recommended a single-transferable vote system, Carr expressed strong opposition, favouring MMP.

However, she supported a resolution at the subsequent BC Green convention that her party officially take a neutral stance letting candidates decide for themselves whether or not to support the Citizens' Assembly proposal.

2004

In 2004, Carr ran for the Greens in a by-election in Surrey-Panorama Ridge, held following the resignation of Liberal Gulzar Singh Cheema.

She finished a distant third with 8.4 percent of the vote as the NDP recovered to win the riding.

2005

In the 2005 provincial election, she received over 25 percent of the vote in her home riding of Powell River-Sunshine Coast.

This result was a harbinger of the party's decline in popularity in the 2005 general election, where its share of the vote fell to 9 percent.

Carr was a vocal supporter of a mixed-member proportional (MMP) electoral system.

2006

In September 2006, she was appointed by federal Green Party leader Elizabeth May, to be one of her two deputy leaders.

2008

After two losses as a federal candidate in the Vancouver Centre electoral district (2008 and 2011), Carr was elected to Vancouver City Council in November 2011.

2011

She has served on Vancouver City Council since its 2011 municipal election.

She was the sole candidate of the Green Party of Vancouver for one of 10 seats in the at-large election held in the 2011 municipal election.

This was her first electoral success in eight attempts, and she was the first person elected under the Green Party banner to the council of a major Canadian city.

2014

She was re-elected in 2014, 2018, and 2022.

Carr was born in Vancouver and raised in the Lower Mainland and the Kootenays.
