B.C. Green Leader to Outline Health and Climate Plans Ahead of Leaders’ Debate

B.C. Green Party Leader Sonia Furstenau is set to hold a news conference in Victoria this morning as the second week of the provincial election campaign continues.

The Greens have already detailed several key commitments, including a plan to create a network of 93 community health centres across the province and to provide coverage for six annual mental health visits under the Medical Services Plan. The party has also pledged to maintain the carbon tax while expanding the size of the climate rebate for residents.

All three major party leaders are expected to meet face-to-face on Wednesday for multiple campaign events. The day will begin with a live radio debate on Vancouver’s CKNW, followed by a Greater Vancouver Board of Trade forum in the afternoon.

The campaign’s only televised leaders’ debate is scheduled for October 8, marking a key moment for voters ahead of the provincial election.
