NationBuilder r1 Dear Paov,

B.C. will have a new Health Minister tomorrow, and we’ll be setting up a meeting with them right away.

Can you tell us what your top health care priority is for the new government so that we can raise it directly with the Minister?

During the provincial election, we talked to thousands of voters about the issues that matter most to you.

We took your feedback and evaluated the major BC parties’ platform positions on five areas that would improve public health care for everyone. Now we need to set the agenda for what they tackle first.

What is your top priority for the new BC government? Select your top issue:

You vs Big Oil

Details: Published on Friday, 14 July 2017 14:45; Written by editor

URGENT: Big Oil wants to drill in a conservation area of the east coast — and Minister LeBlanc is caving into the pressure.

Highly endangered right whales that swim in the area are already washing up dead, and if this absurd plan goes through, it could be disastrous for them and thousands of other species.

More than 10,000 Leadnow members have already sent messages urging LeBlanc to ban all oil and gas activity in this critical ocean habitat. Will you add your voice before the deadline for comments in 4 days?

URGENT: Fisheries Minister Dominic LeBlanc — responsible for protecting our oceans — is caving in to pressure from Big Oil. After multiple meetings with the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, LeBlanc and his team want to allow oil and gas exploration in 80% of a proposed Marine Protected Area in the Laurentian Channel.[1-2]
