Ontario Green Party Leader Mike Schreiner said he'll be having conversations with all the parties at Queen's Park in the coming weeks with a goal of being able to collaborate and work together.

Rumours the Green Party leader was considering joining forces with the Liberals were sparked on Sunday by reports Schreiner was open to talks with the Liberals and about joining forces to attempt to gain official party status.

Schreiner said his comments to a local reporter were misinterpreted.

"The people of Guelph elected a Green MPP, and I will serve as a Green MPP," he said.

"Co-operation does not equal 'joining forces' or changes to party status."

In a statement, Schreiner said he's open to co-operation with any party.

"I believe hyper-partisanship is one reason so many people are disillusioned by politics as usual. I want to work hard to change that," he said.

"I am reaching out to the PC, NDP and Liberal leaders this week to explore ways to work together."
