Whether you’ve been renting for one, five, or 25 years, the profit-driven rental housing market, outdated residential tenancy policies, and loopholes in current housing legislation place tenants at the mercy of landlords. Tenants in BC deserve safe and reliable housing. #bcpoli

This depth of these #bcpoli resources is possible because we work collectively. Our members (like YWCA Metro Vancouver, @CentreforEquity, West Coast LEAF, @bchealthyliving, and more!) are leading the way on election readiness.

Can you help us get to 1000? We're trying to make transportation an issue that candidates can't ignore this election. We're seeing lines like this not only in Vancouver, but in Kelowna and Abbotsford too. Take 30 secs and sign up here: votebettertransportbc.ca

When MLAs swing by the office, we make sure to get a word in! We presented Sheila Malcolmson Terry Yung Joan Phillip a stack of postcards signed by people in BC, calling for serious investment in public transit. We want to see cross-ministry collab for the good of BC. #bcpoli

We’re disappointed there’s once again no increase for assistance or disability rates in #BCBudget2025. Without at least indexing rates to inflation, the most economically vulnerable people in our province will not be able to meet their needs.
