List of Green politicians who have held office in Canada

This is a list of politicians who are Green Party of Canada members and have elected to office in Canada. With the exception of those who sit in the Parliament of Canada, British Columbia Legislature, New Brunswick Legislature, and the Prince Edward Island Legislature most of these politicians have held municipal office in cities where there are no political parties. While these individuals are members of the Green Party in their personal life and may have been supported by Party members, they were not elected as Green party members.
