Affordability, housing, regional transit, climate action, health and well-being.
Affordability
Public transit
BC Greens's promise
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
BC Greens's promise
We must end logging of old-growth forests and support forestry-revenue-dependant communities to create environmentally sustainable jobs.
Power generation
BC Greens's promises
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.

I support fast, frequent and free bus service; this reduces traffic, greenhouse gas emissions, and reduces the cost of living.

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
BC Greens's promise
We must equip teachers and students with the knowledge to keep pace with our rapidly changing digital world through digital literacy.
School nutrition
BC Greens's promise
I support a universal school program to ensure equal access, high nutritional standards and strong collaboration with communities.
Student mental health
BC Greens's promise
We must expand access to school psychologists and increase the number of guidance counsellors.
Healthcare
Drugs and addiction
BC Greens's promise
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
BC Greens's promise
I will ensure that everyone has access to a Primary Health Care centre, offering timely and comprehensive care in once place.
Health staffing
BC Greens's promise
The province must support physicians with leases and administration so that physicians can focus on patient care.

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.
