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

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.

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.

Petrina was born in Wells, British Columbia, and spent her early years living in various communities across Canada. Settling in South Langley on a 5-acre hobby farm with her family, she developed a deep appreciation for rural life before eventually moving to Vancouver.

Petrina’s dedication to public service and community engagement is evident through her tenure on Langley Township Council. First elected in 2014 and re-elected in 2018, she served until November 2022.

Additionally, she served on the Canadian Pacific Community Advisory Panel, Fraser Health Municipal Regional Panel, and the Township of Langley’s Tree Protection Advisory Committee.
