We acknowledge the urgent need to address climate change, protect our environment, and address inequality in all its forms so that those who live, work, and visit Vancouver can achieve their fullest potential. Greens are committed to leading change through honest, transparent, science-informed, and consensus-guided governance. The Green vision of good governance is guided by the Party’s Core Principles.
In 2019, Council voted unanimously in favour of the concept of 30km per hour speed limits on local roads. On April 10th, Councillor Pete Fry of the Green Party of Vancouver will bring forward a motion titled Revisiting and Refreshing Vancouver’s Commitment to Safer Slower Streets. The refreshed motion aims to limit micromobility (ie. electric scooters) and cars to the same speed limit of 30km per hour on local roads, also used by non-motorized modes of transportation such as bicycles. The motion also throws support behind Sweden's Vision Zero strategy to eliminate all traffic fatalities. Support Councillor Fry's motion by signing the petition and sharing it with your network!
Greens are committed to creating more housing options, including shared housing, cohousing, rental homes, and apartments geared to families that are affordable to Vancouverites.
To protect renters from exploitation and eviction, Greens prioritize enhanced protections and pledge to end renovictions. Greens also seek to develop proactive, comprehensive strategies to prevent, reduce, and ultimately eliminate homelessness. Sign the petition now and join us in our efforts to create a more equitable housing and rental market in Vancouver.
