Green Party of BC
Affordability
Public transit
I support fast, frequent and free bus service; this reduces traffic, greenhouse gas emissions, and reduces the cost of living.
Climate Change & the Environment
Forests and forestry
We must end logging of old-growth forests and support forestry-revenue-dependant communities to create environmentally sustainable jobs.
Power generation
I commit to bringing forward a private members bill to end fossil fuel subsidies.
BC Greens will end permitting for new fracking, phase out gas production, and reject any new LNG projects.
Public transit
I support fast, frequent and free bus service; this reduces traffic, greenhouse gas emissions, and reduces the cost of living.
Water Sustainability
We must update B.C.'s Water Sustainability Act to prioritize ecosystems and food security over industrial usage.
Education
K-12 funding
Equity in education means that every student receives a school issues laptop, for students in grade 6-12.
K-12 learning needs
We must equip teachers and students with the knowledge to keep pace with our rapidly changing digital world through digital literacy.
School nutrition
I support a universal school program to ensure equal access, high nutritional standards and strong collaboration with communities.
Student mental health
We must expand access to school psychologists and increase the number of guidance counsellors.
Healthcare
Drugs and addiction
I support regulated alternatives to toxic supply, cutting profit for organized crime and increased connection to health and social services
Family doctors and primary care
I will ensure that everyone has access to a Primary Health Care centre, offering timely and comprehensive care in once place.
Health staffing
The province must support physicians with leases and administration so that physicians can focus on patient care.
Hospitals
Our hospitals have been underfunded for too long; they are falling into disrepair. I will ensure they have the resources to re-open 24/7.
Housing & Homelessness
Drugs and addiction
I support regulated alternatives to toxic supply, cutting profit for organized crime and increased connection to health and social services
Jobs, Businesses, & Labour
Forests and forestry
We must end logging of old-growth forests and support forestry-revenue-dependant communities to create environmentally sustainable jobs.
