Hibma, a former three-term Owen Sound city councillor, comes across as a thoughtful man, offering measured and careful responses to questions. Even when residents tell him he's "head and shoulders above the other candidates," Hibma marks them down only as "weak" Green supporters -- a cautious response to flattering words.
Hibma fields questions about where he stands on Afghanistan (he wants to clarify the mission and set clearer goals), the economy (he says a strong economy is directly linked to sound environmental policies).
Then there's the all-encompassing, "What's the Green party about, anyway?"
