Biography

from their website

My name is Christine Kinnie, and I am proud to be the Green Party of Canada candidate for South Surrey – White Rock. My roots in this community run deep. My great-grandparents lived on a small farm in Ocean Park, and the house is one of the last original homes still standing on 18th Avenue. My grandparents both lived in White Rock, and my family still lives here, in South Surrey.

My motivation in running for office is a deep commitment to social justice, and building a future where every Canadian can thrive. I believe that politics should be about people and the planet, not profit, and I am driven by the urgency of housing affordability, the cost of living crisis, and the need for bold, compassionate leadership.

Professionally, I am a secretary for the Surrey School District. Every day I witness the great service that public schools provide to our community, in spite of overcrowding and underfunding. I also see more children and families requiring support and struggling with the burden of the rising cost of living. 

I’m an active volunteer with the South Fraser Unitarians. I currently serve as Chair of the Board, and also as a Lay Chaplain, officiating weddings, funerals and other rites of passage. 

If elected, my goals are rooted in the Green Party’s platform, with a strong focus on affordable housing, fair taxation, health care, disability justice, and caring for all Canadians. We need rent-controlled and means-based social housing, not policies that incentivize and subsidize private-sector developers and investors. I’ll advocate for a fair tax system where corporations and the wealthiest pay their share, funding essential services like universal pharmacare and mental health care, while advancing disability justice to create an inclusive society. I am committed to fostering peace and security by promoting diplomacy and increasing Canadian self-reliance. I will fight to strengthen democracy through electoral reform and transparent governance. My vision is a Canada where no one is left behind, and everyone can thrive in a just, equitable, and sustainable future.
