BC Green

  • Work collaboratively with regional districts and First Nations to make regional transit planning easier

    "Make regional transit planning easier by working collaboratively with regional districts and First Nations on their priorities." — Believe in Better, retrieved 2026-10-13

  • Provide a province-wide, wheelchair accessible, intercity network of buses, with at least hourly service for 80% of BC, and daily service everywhere else

    "Implement a Province-wide, wheelchair accessible, intercity network, with at least hourly service for 80% of British Columbia and at least daily service for every part of BC." — Believe in Better, retrieved 2026-10-13

  • Have regional transit buses on Highway 99 in the Sea-to-Sky within the first year
  • Develop a large-scale passenger rail strategy in partnership with First Nations, focusing on Vancouver Island, metro Vancouver, the Sea-to-Sky, and the Fraser Valley

    "Develop a large-scale passenger rail strategy, in partnership with First Nations. This will focus on Vancouver Island, Metro Vancouver, the Sea-to-Sky and the Fraser Valley." — Believe in Better, retrieved 2026-10-13

  • Provide funding to the BC Rail Alliance for an engineering assessment and economic study of repurposing CN track to provide rail service between Squamish and 100 Mile House

    "For a long time, rail was a key connection network across British Columbia. Being able to cover vast distances, keep trucks off the roads, and move large amounts of freight supports tourism, industry, and cross-community connection. The decision by CN Rail to end its lease of the rail corridor between Squamish and 100 Mile House provides an opportunity for the province to support interior communities by getting trains running again. The BC Rail Corridor Alliance is still waiting for a response from the province for support in an engineering feasibility assessment, economic study and operations funding." — Believe in Better, retrieved 2026-10-13

    "Provide support to the BC Rail Corridor Alliance, including financial support for an engineering assessment, economic study, and operations funding." — Believe in Better, retrieved 2026-10-13

  • Protected the CN track between Squamish and 100 Mile House in the meantime

    "Protect the rail corridor for freight and passenger rail while opportunities for active transportation, recreation and tourism are evaluated." — Believe in Better, retrieved 2026-10-13

  • Work with First Nations and the Island Corridor Foundation to determine next steps for Vancouver Island Rail
