Dogwood's campaigns channel the power of organized people to create lasting change.

As the West Coast reels from unprecedented wildfires, and more than 100 Canadian economists sound the alarm about Trans Mountain’s broken business case, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland has a choice: keep pouring fuel on the fire, or free up billions of dollars for post-pandemic recovery.

The Site C dam is a disaster. This is our last chance to stop it – and save billions of taxpayer dollars.

Oil prices are at historic lows and demand may never return to pre-COVID levels. But Justin Trudeau wants taxpayers to borrow billions of dollars to build a pipeline that no longer makes any economic sense.

Youth have the most at stake in political decisions being made right now. And they have the most to lose.

Threatened by climate change. Forced back into crowded classrooms during a pandemic. Laid off with almost no job prospects. Faced with an uncertain future.

Sixteen and seventeen year olds are impacted every day by government decisions. And just like other citizens, they deserve a say in what lies ahead.

We are at an extraordinary point in time — youth around the world are raising their voices and standing up for change. It makes sense. We are facing a pretty bleak fate. And, under our current democratic system, we have limited recourse and access to power. We need bold political action to solve the big problems that the world is facing today.

It’s time to shift decision-making power. It’s time to lower the voting age to 16 in B.C.

Almost 70,000 young workers in B.C. have no say in the decisions that affect their lives.

Fair pay. Sick days. Paid leave. Workplace safety. Equitable treatment without discrimination. Benefits. Affordability. Education. Planning for their future.

These issues affect all workers in B.C. Yet those under the age of 18 have no voice in our democracy.

It’s time to lower the voting age in B.C.
