Gender-based violence platforms

Here's what the 2020 BC election parties are promising.

BC NDP
  • Develop an action plan to end gender-based violence, including minimum standards for sexual assault response.
  • More training for police, crown council and justices.
  • Establishing core funding for sexual assault centres.

BC Liberals
  • Extend the Sexual Violence and Misconduct Policy Act beyond public post-secondary institutions to all of government.
  • Adopt Clare's Law, making violent criminal histories open to those at risk, esp. potential partners.
We don't have any BC Greens policies on Gender-based violence.
