While we recognize and support the government’s goal of accelerating the approval and development of large-scale projects to increase economic output given the ongoing tariffs with the U.S. Administration, we are unable to support the legislation in its current form. Our concerns lie primarily in three areas: 1. Vague Language and Broad Discretion The current draft of Bill 15 contains unclear definitions and open-ended powers, particularly in the criteria used to designate a project as “provincially significant.” This lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent application and erodes public trust in land-use decision-making processes. More detail and accountability are needed to ensure the act is used for its intended purpose and not as a blanket override tool. 2. Erosion of Indigenous and Local Government Authority The Chamber is particularly concerned about provisions that would allow the provincial government to circumvent the rights of Indigenous communities and the authority of local governments in land-use planning. Reconciliation and strong local governance are cornerstones of sustainable and inclusive economic development. This bill, as currently written, undermines both. 3. Need for Parallel Red Tape Reduction While we agree that infrastructure projects must move forward more efficiently, we urge the province to tackle the root causes of permitting delays by reviewing and removing unnecessary red tape and administrative bottlenecks. Streamlining existing processes—not bypassing consultation and oversight—is a more balanced and sustainable approach. Considering these concerns, we recommend that Bill 15 be revised to include: • Clear definitions and constraints on when and how the Act may be invoked. • Strong protections for Indigenous rights and meaningful consultation requirements. • A collaborative framework that respects local land-use authority. • Parallel commitments to reduce regulatory and permitting inefficiencies. The business community in Penticton is aligned with the provincial vision of building stronger, more connected communities. However, this vision must be pursued in a way that maintains the integrity of democratic institutions, respects Indigenous sovereignty, and builds confidence through transparency and accountability.", "office_holders_on_report": "11", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Adrian Dix", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Scott Harris", "title_as_recorded": "Chief of Staff", "agency_as_recorded": "Energy and Climate Solutions", "lar_id": "LAR-43337", "lar_number": "3391-43337", "meeting_date": "2025-05-20", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-13", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=43337", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3391", "client_org_name": "Parkland Corporation", "client_business_description": "Parkland is an independent supplier and marketer of fuel and petroleum products and a leading convenience store operator.

When the relief program was initially announced, the public understanding was that wineries would be permitted to temporarily utilize replacement grapes and grape juice to maintain production and market presence during an extraordinary agricultural crisis. Government communications emphasized the importance of helping wineries survive the crop failure, preserve employment, and continue supporting the provincial economy and tourism sector. Subsequent guidance issued by the BCLDB, however, appears to materially expand the scope of the cap beyond replacement wine volumes alone. Specifically, current interpretations indicate that the annual support cap may now apply to the combined total sales or production volumes of Replacement Wine, BC VQA wine, and 100% British Columbia wine. As a result, wineries that exceeded their historical Olympic average due to legitimate business growth, prior vintage releases, increased consumer demand for BC wine, tourism recovery, or successful sales of BC-grown wines may now be facing significant financial penalties or increased taxation. If BC-grown wines are now being included within the same support cap calculations as replacement wine utilizing imported inputs, then the program is no longer simply limiting temporary relief measures — it is effectively penalizing wineries for successfully selling legitimate British Columbia wine during a recovery period. The wine industry is a foundational component of the South Okanagan economy. Beyond agriculture itself, wineries support tourism, hospitality, restaurants, transportation providers, manufacturing, retail businesses, trades, and countless local jobs. Policies that unintentionally penalize growth or recovery within this sector risk broader economic consequences for communities throughout the region. Accordingly, the Penticton & Wine Country Chamber of Commerce respectfully requests that the Province and the BCLDB: 1. Exclude BC VQA and 100% BC-grown wines from the replacement wine support-cap calculations where those wines were produced from BC grapes and are unrelated to replacement wine production. 2.

Immediate Funding for the Invasive Mussel Defence Program – $5.5 Million Investment The IMDP has been underfunded for years, and its effectiveness has been compromised by budget reductions and staffing shortages. The number of watercraft inspections has declined by 60% since 2019, despite an increasing threat from neighboring jurisdictions like Idaho. We urge the provincial government to allocate at least $5.5 million to the IMDP in 2025 to restore and expand inspections. 2. Mandatory Inspections for All Watercraft Entering B.C. Unlike Alberta, which is introducing mandatory watercraft inspections in 2026, B.C. currently only inspects boats that pass an open station, leaving significant gaps in coverage. We recommend amending the Wildlife Act and Water Sustainability Act to require mandatory inspections for all incoming watercraft. 3. Federal Support for Prevention, Not Just Detection Federal funding has been largely focused on mussel detection rather than prevention. As we have seen in Lake Winnipeg and are witnessing in Idaho’s Snake River, once mussels are detected, the infestation and damage is irreversible. We urge you to advocate for federal funding that prioritizes early prevention and border screening programs, as well as a moratorium on out-of-country watercraft given that the copper-based chemical treatments in Idaho’s Snake River were unsuccessful in eliminating quagga mussels but did kill between 6 and 7 tons of fish, including 48 white sturgeon. 4. A Western Canada Invasive Mussel-Free Zone The province should collaborate with Alberta and Saskatchewan to establish a regional invasive mussel prevention strategy, including shared policies, inspection stations, and penalties. Aligning with Alberta’s AIS Task Force recommendations will create a more effective defense against mussel contamination across Western Canada. 5. Aligning Penalties to Deter Non-Compliance Currently, B.C.’s fines for non-compliance with inspection programs are far lower than Alberta’s. We recommend increasing penalties to at least match Alberta’s $4,200 fine for failing to stop at an inspection station and implementing higher fines for larger, high-risk watercraft. 6. Clear Policy to Limit Chemical Use in “Rapid Response” Strategies While some jurisdictions propose chemical treatments as a last resort for invasive mussels like in the Snake River, history shows that these measures are often ineffective, costly, and harmful to other aquatic species, including salmon populations. The best strategy remains prevention through mandatory inspections and proactive funding. Public and Business Community Support This issue is not just an environmental concern—it is an economic imperative. In March 2024, the Okanagan Basin Water Board (OBWB) convened a multi-stakeholder working group of over 100 representatives, including local governments, First Nations, marinas, tourism associations, and chambers of commerce. The overwhelming consensus was that B.C. must take stronger action now to protect our waters, economy, and way of life.", "office_holders_on_report": "6", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Bowinn Ma", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Bowinn Ma", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for North Vancouver-Lonsdale", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-40096", "lar_number": "1447-40096", "meeting_date": "2025-02-19", "month": "2025-02", "posted_date": "2025-03-15", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40096", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "1447", "client_org_name": "First Call Child and Youth Advocacy Society", "client_business_description": "Not-for-profit society putting children and youth first in BC through public education, community mobilization and public policy advocacy.", "lobbyists": "Adrienne Montani", "lobbyist_count": "1", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "North Vancouver-Lonsdale", "designated_filer": "Adrienne Montani", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Children and Families; Education; Finances and Budgets; Health; Housing; Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation; Labour/Labour Relations; Mental Health and Addictions; Taxation and Finance", "intended_outcomes": "BC-01; BC-02; BC-03; BC-04", "topic_of_lobbying": "Advocacy to reduce child and family poverty through better policy and programs.", "office_holders_on_report": "93", "sector": "Health & social services", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Bowinn Ma", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Thomas Jin", "title_as_recorded": "Ministerial Advisor", "agency_as_recorded": "Infrastructure", "lar_id": "LAR-40441", "lar_number": "5241-40441", "meeting_date": "2025-02-19", "month": "2025-02", "posted_date": "2025-03-15", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40441", "registration_type": "Consultant", "client_org_num": "5241", "client_org_name": "Concrete Association of BC", "client_business_description": "Formed in 1962, Concrete BC’s objectives are to: Present industry view to government, both proactively and in response to government proposals.

These experts would work together with federal, provincial, municipal/regional, and Indigenous governments to implement and monitor the efficacy of new housing policies introduced by the provincial government. The roundtable should consist of individuals representing the various housing sub-sector groups. Subgroups could work in partnership with the provincial government on different issues such as non-market housing and strata issues, for example. The purpose would be to review potential housing legislation early, ensuring that the draft policy is holistic, pressure tested for unanticipated consequences, and likely to achieve stated goals. Where expertise on particular topics is required, roundtable members could be temporarily swapped out to ensure due diligence is conducted on consequential issues while maintaining a manageable roundtable size. Roundtable members could also represent specialized subcommittees, so that relevant expertise is available to support policy development in specific areas. The full roundtable could meet quarterly to evaluate the overall impact of new policies and advise the government on the viability of incoming policies and regulations. The roundtable model has already been successfully employed by the provincial government (Energy Step Code Council and Development Finance Review Committee), and the federal government (National Advisory Council on Early Learning and Child Care). These examples can be reviewed for guidance on the creation of a permanent provincial housing roundtable, ensuring effective structure and processes for new housing policy directions. || Housing Taxation Review Conduct a thorough housing taxation review: 1. Property Transfer Tax as it was originally intended as a Luxury Tax. Properties sold below the current average BC home price (reviewed annually) should be exempt. Resale properties and new builds should be treated the same for the purposes of the tax. There should be no distinction made between them. Simplify the tax by reducing the number of thresholds and taxation rates. Periodically review special categories (First Time Home Buyers, for example) for effectiveness. 2. Review the efficacy of the Speculation and Vacancy Tax (SVT), Foreign Buyer Tax, and BC Home Flipping Tax: Eliminate the duplication of an existing federal tax (the Underused Housing Tax) by repealing the SVT. Examine Foreign Buyer Tax exemptions with an eye upon unique markets such as ski resorts, where the impact on the local housing market is minimal, but the effects on the local tourism economy are significant. Repeal the BC Home Flipping Tax, as analysis from BC Real Estate Association's Economics Department has shown that the tax will have minimal impact on affordability (see https://www.bcrea.bc.ca/economics/more-trouble-than-it-is-worth-analyzing-the-impacts-and-consequences-of-the-provincial-flipping-tax/).", "office_holders_on_report": "4", "sector": "Real estate, development & construction", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Bowinn Ma", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Bowinn Ma", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for North Vancouver-Lonsdale", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-40876", "lar_number": "744-40876", "meeting_date": "2025-03-12", "month": "2025-03", "posted_date": "2025-04-08", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40876", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "744", "client_org_name": "Canadian Federation of Independent Business", "client_business_description": "Founded in 1971, CFIB is a non-profit, non-partisan business organization which exists to promote and protect a system of free competitive enterprise, to strengthen the entrepreneurial culture in Canada and to give independent business a greater voice in determining the laws that govern business and the nation.

While we recognize and support the government’s goal of accelerating the approval and development of large-scale projects to increase economic output given the ongoing tariffs with the U.S. Administration, we are unable to support the legislation in its current form. Our concerns lie primarily in three areas: 1. Vague Language and Broad Discretion The current draft of Bill 15 contains unclear definitions and open-ended powers, particularly in the criteria used to designate a project as “provincially significant.” This lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent application and erodes public trust in land-use decision-making processes. More detail and accountability are needed to ensure the act is used for its intended purpose and not as a blanket override tool. 2. Erosion of Indigenous and Local Government Authority The Chamber is particularly concerned about provisions that would allow the provincial government to circumvent the rights of Indigenous communities and the authority of local governments in land-use planning. Reconciliation and strong local governance are cornerstones of sustainable and inclusive economic development. This bill, as currently written, undermines both. 3. Need for Parallel Red Tape Reduction While we agree that infrastructure projects must move forward more efficiently, we urge the province to tackle the root causes of permitting delays by reviewing and removing unnecessary red tape and administrative bottlenecks. Streamlining existing processes—not bypassing consultation and oversight—is a more balanced and sustainable approach. Considering these concerns, we recommend that Bill 15 be revised to include: • Clear definitions and constraints on when and how the Act may be invoked. • Strong protections for Indigenous rights and meaningful consultation requirements. • A collaborative framework that respects local land-use authority. • Parallel commitments to reduce regulatory and permitting inefficiencies. The business community in Penticton is aligned with the provincial vision of building stronger, more connected communities. However, this vision must be pursued in a way that maintains the integrity of democratic institutions, respects Indigenous sovereignty, and builds confidence through transparency and accountability.", "office_holders_on_report": "11", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Bowinn Ma", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Bowinn Ma", "title_as_recorded": "Minister", "agency_as_recorded": "Infrastructure", "lar_id": "LAR-42987", "lar_number": "3775-42987", "meeting_date": "2025-05-20", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-16", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=42987", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3775", "client_org_name": "Mechanical Contractors Association of British Columbia", "client_business_description": "MCABC represents the interests of mechanical contractors, their sub and affiliated trades, suppliers, distributors and wholesalers, delivering programs and services that enable high standards of business practice and growth for the mechanical contracting industry.", "lobbyists": "Kim Barbero", "lobbyist_count": "1", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "North Vancouver-Lonsdale", "designated_filer": "Kim Barbero", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Advanced Education;

While we recognize and support the government’s goal of accelerating the approval and development of large-scale projects to increase economic output given the ongoing tariffs with the U.S. Administration, we are unable to support the legislation in its current form. Our concerns lie primarily in three areas: 1. Vague Language and Broad Discretion The current draft of Bill 15 contains unclear definitions and open-ended powers, particularly in the criteria used to designate a project as “provincially significant.” This lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent application and erodes public trust in land-use decision-making processes. More detail and accountability are needed to ensure the act is used for its intended purpose and not as a blanket override tool. 2. Erosion of Indigenous and Local Government Authority The Chamber is particularly concerned about provisions that would allow the provincial government to circumvent the rights of Indigenous communities and the authority of local governments in land-use planning. Reconciliation and strong local governance are cornerstones of sustainable and inclusive economic development. This bill, as currently written, undermines both. 3. Need for Parallel Red Tape Reduction While we agree that infrastructure projects must move forward more efficiently, we urge the province to tackle the root causes of permitting delays by reviewing and removing unnecessary red tape and administrative bottlenecks. Streamlining existing processes—not bypassing consultation and oversight—is a more balanced and sustainable approach. Considering these concerns, we recommend that Bill 15 be revised to include: • Clear definitions and constraints on when and how the Act may be invoked. • Strong protections for Indigenous rights and meaningful consultation requirements. • A collaborative framework that respects local land-use authority. • Parallel commitments to reduce regulatory and permitting inefficiencies. The business community in Penticton is aligned with the provincial vision of building stronger, more connected communities. However, this vision must be pursued in a way that maintains the integrity of democratic institutions, respects Indigenous sovereignty, and builds confidence through transparency and accountability.", "office_holders_on_report": "11", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Brenda Bailey", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Tyler Norman", "title_as_recorded": "Chief of Staff", "agency_as_recorded": "Finance", "lar_id": "LAR-43110", "lar_number": "1627-43110", "meeting_date": "2025-05-20", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-11", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=43110", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "1627", "client_org_name": "Greater Vancouver Board of Trade", "client_business_description": "OUR PURPOSE is to lead, unite and champion business to ensure Greater Vancouver is thriving and our region is the best place to live and work.

When the relief program was initially announced, the public understanding was that wineries would be permitted to temporarily utilize replacement grapes and grape juice to maintain production and market presence during an extraordinary agricultural crisis. Government communications emphasized the importance of helping wineries survive the crop failure, preserve employment, and continue supporting the provincial economy and tourism sector. Subsequent guidance issued by the BCLDB, however, appears to materially expand the scope of the cap beyond replacement wine volumes alone. Specifically, current interpretations indicate that the annual support cap may now apply to the combined total sales or production volumes of Replacement Wine, BC VQA wine, and 100% British Columbia wine. As a result, wineries that exceeded their historical Olympic average due to legitimate business growth, prior vintage releases, increased consumer demand for BC wine, tourism recovery, or successful sales of BC-grown wines may now be facing significant financial penalties or increased taxation. If BC-grown wines are now being included within the same support cap calculations as replacement wine utilizing imported inputs, then the program is no longer simply limiting temporary relief measures — it is effectively penalizing wineries for successfully selling legitimate British Columbia wine during a recovery period. The wine industry is a foundational component of the South Okanagan economy. Beyond agriculture itself, wineries support tourism, hospitality, restaurants, transportation providers, manufacturing, retail businesses, trades, and countless local jobs. Policies that unintentionally penalize growth or recovery within this sector risk broader economic consequences for communities throughout the region. Accordingly, the Penticton & Wine Country Chamber of Commerce respectfully requests that the Province and the BCLDB: 1. Exclude BC VQA and 100% BC-grown wines from the replacement wine support-cap calculations where those wines were produced from BC grapes and are unrelated to replacement wine production. 2. Establish a transparent appeal or variance process for wineries that exceeded their Olympic average due to legitimate market demand, tourism recovery, release of prior vintages, or growth in sales unrelated to imported grapes or grape juice. 3. Honour the original intent and publicly communicated purpose of the program by ensuring wineries that acted in good faith based on the initial framework are not subjected to unexpected financial penalties or retroactive disadvantage. 4. Apply support-cap restrictions only to the portion of production directly attributable to imported grapes, grape juice, or replacement wine production. 5. Extend the replacement wine sales and support window beyond the current March 31, 2028 expiry date to at least March 31, 2030.", "office_holders_on_report": "5", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Brenda Bailey", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Tyler Norman", "title_as_recorded": "Chief of Staff", "agency_as_recorded": "Finance", "lar_id": "LAR-52026", "lar_number": "5870-52026", "meeting_date": "2026-05-21", "month": "2026-05", "posted_date": "2026-06-15", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=52026", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "5870", "client_org_name": "Enterprise Rent-A-Car Canada Company", "client_business_description": "Car and Truck Rental provider with 50+ rental locations across British Columbia", "lobbyists": "Kristin Ali; Carolyn Anderberg; Troy Klemo", "lobbyist_count": "3", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Vancouver-South Granville", "designated_filer": "Troy Klemo", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Consumer Issues; Taxation and Finance", "intended_outcomes": "BC-01; BC-03; BC-04", "topic_of_lobbying": "Advocacy for clarification, modernization and/or changes related to PST bulletin 116, specifically with regard to its application on Canada's vehicle rental/short-term leasing sector", "office_holders_on_report": "2", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "default (no rule matched)", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Brenda Bailey", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Tyler Norman", "title_as_recorded": "Chief of Staff", "agency_as_recorded": "Finance", "lar_id": "LAR-52169", "lar_number": "3004-52169", "meeting_date": "2026-05-21", "month": "2026-05", "posted_date": "2026-06-15", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=52169", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3004", "client_org_name": "Urban Development Institute", "client_business_description": "The Urban Development Institute is a non-profit association of the development industry and its related professions that is non-partisan in its activities.

While we recognize and support the government’s goal of accelerating the approval and development of large-scale projects to increase economic output given the ongoing tariffs with the U.S. Administration, we are unable to support the legislation in its current form. Our concerns lie primarily in three areas: 1. Vague Language and Broad Discretion The current draft of Bill 15 contains unclear definitions and open-ended powers, particularly in the criteria used to designate a project as “provincially significant.” This lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent application and erodes public trust in land-use decision-making processes. More detail and accountability are needed to ensure the act is used for its intended purpose and not as a blanket override tool. 2. Erosion of Indigenous and Local Government Authority The Chamber is particularly concerned about provisions that would allow the provincial government to circumvent the rights of Indigenous communities and the authority of local governments in land-use planning. Reconciliation and strong local governance are cornerstones of sustainable and inclusive economic development. This bill, as currently written, undermines both. 3. Need for Parallel Red Tape Reduction While we agree that infrastructure projects must move forward more efficiently, we urge the province to tackle the root causes of permitting delays by reviewing and removing unnecessary red tape and administrative bottlenecks. Streamlining existing processes—not bypassing consultation and oversight—is a more balanced and sustainable approach. Considering these concerns, we recommend that Bill 15 be revised to include: • Clear definitions and constraints on when and how the Act may be invoked. • Strong protections for Indigenous rights and meaningful consultation requirements. • A collaborative framework that respects local land-use authority. • Parallel commitments to reduce regulatory and permitting inefficiencies. The business community in Penticton is aligned with the provincial vision of building stronger, more connected communities. However, this vision must be pursued in a way that maintains the integrity of democratic institutions, respects Indigenous sovereignty, and builds confidence through transparency and accountability.", "office_holders_on_report": "11", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Brittny Anderson", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Brittany Anderson", "title_as_recorded": "Minister", "agency_as_recorded": "Minister of State for Local Governments and Rural Communities", "lar_id": "LAR-43243", "lar_number": "3284-43243", "meeting_date": "2025-05-28", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-12", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=43243", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3284", "client_org_name": "Wildsight", "client_business_description": "Wildsight works locally, regionally and globally to protect biodiversity and encourage sustainable communities in Canada’s Columbia and Rocky Mountain regions.", "lobbyists": "John Bergenske", "lobbyist_count": "1", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Kootenay Central", "designated_filer": "Robyn Duncan", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Conservation; Environment; Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation; Agriculture; Fisheries; Forestry; Mining", "intended_outcomes": "BC-04; BC-01; BC-02; BC-03", "topic_of_lobbying": "Meeting to create, letter to comment, PR to highlight new protected areas including Parks and Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas, Wildlife Management Areas (Purcells, Southern Rockies) || Action on habitat restoration and landscape level connectivity including range and forest management, highway crossings, road rehabilitation", "office_holders_on_report": "1", "sector": "Environment & conservation", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Brittny Anderson", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Brittny Anderson", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Kootenay Central", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-43371", "lar_number": "529-43371", "meeting_date": "2025-05-28", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-16", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=43371", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "529", "client_org_name": "British Columbia Real Estate Association", "client_business_description": "BCREA is the professional association for more than 26,000 REALTORS® in BC, focusing on provincial issues that impact real estate.

Our local business community also continues to report significant operational and financial hardship due to these repeated transportation disruptions. The inability to reliably move goods, employees, or customers across the region has real economic consequences, deterring investment, threatening job stability, and undermining commercial confidence.

Our families travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to ensure their sick child has access to necessary and often urgent, life-saving pediatric care only available in Vancouver at BC Children's and BC Women's Hospitals. Today, RMH BC & Y is at a tipping point where the need to serve more families is higher than the space and resources we have to offer them. The situation is resulting in us turning away over 500 families each year who urgently need our support. Despite our expansion in 2014 from a 13-bedroom home to a brand new 73-bedroom facility, 575 steps away from BC Children's and BC Women's Hospital, care teams at the hospital campus routinely have to advise families that RMH BC & Y is full. With few alternatives available, these stressed-out families are plunged into finding a home away from home close to their sick child in a large city they don't know well. Recent provincial projections show we're going to need more spaces in the next few years to even come close to meeting the need. We are looking for community leaders to help support our dream of building a new House adjacent to our current House, to serve more families. In order to do that, we need to fundraise $96M with the goal of breaking ground in early 2026 and welcoming more families by the spring of 2028. together, let us help our families solve the challenge of accommodation close to the hospital where their sick child is being treated.", "lobbyists": "Richard Pass; Sarah Catliff", "lobbyist_count": "2", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Kootenay Central", "designated_filer": "Richard Pass", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Children and Families; Health; Housing; Non-Profit Organization", "intended_outcomes": "BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Seeking awareness, support, and funding for the second Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver.", "office_holders_on_report": "5", "sector": "Health & social services", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Christine Boyle", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Christine Boyle", "title_as_recorded": "Minister", "agency_as_recorded": "Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation", "lar_id": "LAR-38278", "lar_number": "2810-38278", "meeting_date": "2024-11-19", "month": "2024-11", "posted_date": "2024-12-13", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=38278", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "2810", "client_org_name": "Surrey Board of Trade", "client_business_description": "The Surrey Board of Trade represents 6000 member contacts, and over 60,000 employees, representing 3000 businesses.

CAPP is a solution-oriented partner and works with all levels of government to ensure a thriving Canadian oil and natural gas industry.

It is the largest organization exclusively representing the small- and medium-sized business community across Canada. The Federation is unique as a political organization because it is the membership that sets the organization's policies and priorities by referendum and census.

While we recognize and support the government’s goal of accelerating the approval and development of large-scale projects to increase economic output given the ongoing tariffs with the U.S. Administration, we are unable to support the legislation in its current form. Our concerns lie primarily in three areas: 1. Vague Language and Broad Discretion The current draft of Bill 15 contains unclear definitions and open-ended powers, particularly in the criteria used to designate a project as “provincially significant.” This lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent application and erodes public trust in land-use decision-making processes. More detail and accountability are needed to ensure the act is used for its intended purpose and not as a blanket override tool. 2. Erosion of Indigenous and Local Government Authority The Chamber is particularly concerned about provisions that would allow the provincial government to circumvent the rights of Indigenous communities and the authority of local governments in land-use planning. Reconciliation and strong local governance are cornerstones of sustainable and inclusive economic development. This bill, as currently written, undermines both. 3. Need for Parallel Red Tape Reduction While we agree that infrastructure projects must move forward more efficiently, we urge the province to tackle the root causes of permitting delays by reviewing and removing unnecessary red tape and administrative bottlenecks. Streamlining existing processes—not bypassing consultation and oversight—is a more balanced and sustainable approach. Considering these concerns, we recommend that Bill 15 be revised to include: • Clear definitions and constraints on when and how the Act may be invoked. • Strong protections for Indigenous rights and meaningful consultation requirements. • A collaborative framework that respects local land-use authority. • Parallel commitments to reduce regulatory and permitting inefficiencies. The business community in Penticton is aligned with the provincial vision of building stronger, more connected communities.

Our families travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to ensure their sick child has access to necessary and often urgent, life-saving pediatric care only available in Vancouver at BC Children's and BC Women's Hospitals. Today, RMH BC & Y is at a tipping point where the need to serve more families is higher than the space and resources we have to offer them. The situation is resulting in us turning away over 500 families each year who urgently need our support. Despite our expansion in 2014 from a 13-bedroom home to a brand new 73-bedroom facility, 575 steps away from BC Children's and BC Women's Hospital, care teams at the hospital campus routinely have to advise families that RMH BC & Y is full. With few alternatives available, these stressed-out families are plunged into finding a home away from home close to their sick child in a large city they don't know well. Recent provincial projections show we're going to need more spaces in the next few years to even come close to meeting the need. We are looking for community leaders to help support our dream of building a new House adjacent to our current House, to serve more families. In order to do that, we need to fundraise $96M with the goal of breaking ground in early 2026 and welcoming more families by the spring of 2028. together, let us help our families solve the challenge of accommodation close to the hospital where their sick child is being treated.", "lobbyists": "Sarah Catliff; Richard Pass", "lobbyist_count": "2", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Vancouver-Little Mountain", "designated_filer": "Richard Pass", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Children and Families; Health; Housing; Non-Profit Organization", "intended_outcomes": "BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Seeking awareness, support, and funding for the second Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver.", "office_holders_on_report": "1", "sector": "Health & social services", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Christine Boyle", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Christine Boyle", "title_as_recorded": "Minister of Housing and Municipal Affairs", "agency_as_recorded": "Housing and Municipal Affairs", "lar_id": "LAR-50711", "lar_number": "752-50711", "meeting_date": "2026-04-14", "month": "2026-04", "posted_date": "2026-04-15", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=50711", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "752", "client_org_name": "Canadian Home Builders' Association of BC", "client_business_description": "The Canadian Home Builders' Association of British Columbia is the leading advocate of the residential construction industry across the province.

Our families travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to ensure their sick child has access to necessary and often urgent, life-saving pediatric care only available in Vancouver at BC Children's and BC Women's Hospitals. Today, RMH BC & Y is at a tipping point where the need to serve more families is higher than the space and resources we have to offer them. The situation is resulting in us turning away over 500 families each year who urgently need our support. Despite our expansion in 2014 from a 13-bedroom home to a brand new 73-bedroom facility, 575 steps away from BC Children's and BC Women's Hospital, care teams at the hospital campus routinely have to advise families that RMH BC & Y is full. With few alternatives available, these stressed-out families are plunged into finding a home away from home close to their sick child in a large city they don't know well. Recent provincial projections show we're going to need more spaces in the next few years to even come close to meeting the need. We are looking for community leaders to help support our dream of building a new House adjacent to our current House, to serve more families. In order to do that, we need to fundraise $96M with the goal of breaking ground in early 2026 and welcoming more families by the spring of 2028. together, let us help our families solve the challenge of accommodation close to the hospital where their sick child is being treated.", "lobbyists": "Richard Pass; Sarah Catliff", "lobbyist_count": "2", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Vancouver-Little Mountain", "designated_filer": "Richard Pass", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Children and Families; Health; Housing; Non-Profit Organization", "intended_outcomes": "BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Seeking awareness, support, and funding for the second Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver.", "office_holders_on_report": "5", "sector": "Health & social services", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Christine Boyle", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Christine Boyle", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Vancouver - Little Mountain", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-54404", "lar_number": "3507-54404", "meeting_date": "2026-09-21", "month": "2026-09", "posted_date": "2026-09-29", "record_source": "public report page posted after export", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=54404", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3507", "client_org_name": "Inclusion BC Society", "client_business_description": "Inclusion BC is a non-profit provincial organization that advocates for the rights and opportunities of people with intellectual disabilities and their families.

Our families travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to ensure their sick child has access to necessary and often urgent, life-saving pediatric care only available in Vancouver at BC Children's and BC Women's Hospitals. Today, RMH BC & Y is at a tipping point where the need to serve more families is higher than the space and resources we have to offer them. The situation is resulting in us turning away over 500 families each year who urgently need our support. Despite our expansion in 2014 from a 13-bedroom home to a brand new 73-bedroom facility, 575 steps away from BC Children's and BC Women's Hospital, care teams at the hospital campus routinely have to advise families that RMH BC & Y is full. With few alternatives available, these stressed-out families are plunged into finding a home away from home close to their sick child in a large city they don't know well.

While we recognize and support the government’s goal of accelerating the approval and development of large-scale projects to increase economic output given the ongoing tariffs with the U.S. Administration, we are unable to support the legislation in its current form. Our concerns lie primarily in three areas: 1. Vague Language and Broad Discretion The current draft of Bill 15 contains unclear definitions and open-ended powers, particularly in the criteria used to designate a project as “provincially significant.” This lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent application and erodes public trust in land-use decision-making processes. More detail and accountability are needed to ensure the act is used for its intended purpose and not as a blanket override tool. 2. Erosion of Indigenous and Local Government Authority The Chamber is particularly concerned about provisions that would allow the provincial government to circumvent the rights of Indigenous communities and the authority of local governments in land-use planning. Reconciliation and strong local governance are cornerstones of sustainable and inclusive economic development. This bill, as currently written, undermines both. 3. Need for Parallel Red Tape Reduction While we agree that infrastructure projects must move forward more efficiently, we urge the province to tackle the root causes of permitting delays by reviewing and removing unnecessary red tape and administrative bottlenecks. Streamlining existing processes—not bypassing consultation and oversight—is a more balanced and sustainable approach. Considering these concerns, we recommend that Bill 15 be revised to include: • Clear definitions and constraints on when and how the Act may be invoked. • Strong protections for Indigenous rights and meaningful consultation requirements. • A collaborative framework that respects local land-use authority. • Parallel commitments to reduce regulatory and permitting inefficiencies. The business community in Penticton is aligned with the provincial vision of building stronger, more connected communities. However, this vision must be pursued in a way that maintains the integrity of democratic institutions, respects Indigenous sovereignty, and builds confidence through transparency and accountability.", "office_holders_on_report": "11", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "David Eby", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Aileen Machell", "title_as_recorded": "Deputy Chief of Staff", "agency_as_recorded": "Office of the Premier", "lar_id": "LAR-42784", "lar_number": "5585-42784", "meeting_date": "2025-05-20", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-05-29", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=42784", "registration_type": "Consultant", "client_org_num": "5585", "client_org_name": "Canadian News Media Association", "client_business_description": "Canadian News Media Association is the voice of the print and digital media industry in Canada.

Immediate Funding for the Invasive Mussel Defence Program – $5.5 Million Investment The IMDP has been underfunded for years, and its effectiveness has been compromised by budget reductions and staffing shortages. The number of watercraft inspections has declined by 60% since 2019, despite an increasing threat from neighboring jurisdictions like Idaho. We urge the provincial government to allocate at least $5.5 million to the IMDP in 2025 to restore and expand inspections. 2. Mandatory Inspections for All Watercraft Entering B.C. Unlike Alberta, which is introducing mandatory watercraft inspections in 2026, B.C. currently only inspects boats that pass an open station, leaving significant gaps in coverage. We recommend amending the Wildlife Act and Water Sustainability Act to require mandatory inspections for all incoming watercraft. 3. Federal Support for Prevention, Not Just Detection Federal funding has been largely focused on mussel detection rather than prevention. As we have seen in Lake Winnipeg and are witnessing in Idaho’s Snake River, once mussels are detected, the infestation and damage is irreversible. We urge you to advocate for federal funding that prioritizes early prevention and border screening programs, as well as a moratorium on out-of-country watercraft given that the copper-based chemical treatments in Idaho’s Snake River were unsuccessful in eliminating quagga mussels but did kill between 6 and 7 tons of fish, including 48 white sturgeon. 4. A Western Canada Invasive Mussel-Free Zone The province should collaborate with Alberta and Saskatchewan to establish a regional invasive mussel prevention strategy, including shared policies, inspection stations, and penalties. Aligning with Alberta’s AIS Task Force recommendations will create a more effective defense against mussel contamination across Western Canada. 5. Aligning Penalties to Deter Non-Compliance Currently, B.C.’s fines for non-compliance with inspection programs are far lower than Alberta’s. We recommend increasing penalties to at least match Alberta’s $4,200 fine for failing to stop at an inspection station and implementing higher fines for larger, high-risk watercraft. 6. Clear Policy to Limit Chemical Use in “Rapid Response” Strategies While some jurisdictions propose chemical treatments as a last resort for invasive mussels like in the Snake River, history shows that these measures are often ineffective, costly, and harmful to other aquatic species, including salmon populations. The best strategy remains prevention through mandatory inspections and proactive funding. Public and Business Community Support This issue is not just an environmental concern—it is an economic imperative. In March 2024, the Okanagan Basin Water Board (OBWB) convened a multi-stakeholder working group of over 100 representatives, including local governments, First Nations, marinas, tourism associations, and chambers of commerce. The overwhelming consensus was that B.C. must take stronger action now to protect our waters, economy, and way of life.", "office_holders_on_report": "6", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Diana Gibson", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Diana Gibson", "title_as_recorded": "Minister of Jobs, Economic Development and Innovation", "agency_as_recorded": "Jobs, Economic Development and Innovation", "lar_id": "LAR-40482", "lar_number": "3961-40482", "meeting_date": "2025-02-18", "month": "2025-02", "posted_date": "2025-03-15", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40482", "registration_type": "Consultant", "client_org_num": "3961", "client_org_name": "Trigon Pacific Terminals Limited (Trigon)", "client_business_description": "Marine terminal handling Canadian bulk commodities for global export.", "lobbyists": "Kevin Hanson", "lobbyist_count": "1", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Oak Bay-Gordon Head", "designated_filer": "Kevin Hanson", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Economic Development and Trade; Employment and Training; Energy; Environment; Finances and Budgets; Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation; Industry; Infrastructure; Internal Trade; International Trade; Regional Development; Science and Technology; Transportation", "intended_outcomes": "BC-04; BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Seek provincial support for development of new supply-chain partnerships and infrastructure that will enable Trigon to transition towards handling more diverse and lower-carbon commodities. || Identify alignment between the development of partnerships and infrastructure (on the part of Trigon and as identified in the topic below) and provincial energy and economic-development policies, in the interests of maximizing socio-economic benefits within BC.", "office_holders_on_report": "13", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Diana Gibson", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Diana Gibson", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Oak Bay-Gordon Head", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-40520", "lar_number": "3290-40520", "meeting_date": "2025-02-18", "month": "2025-02", "posted_date": "2025-03-15", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40520", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3290", "client_org_name": "British Columbia Dairy Association", "client_business_description": "The BC Dairy Association (BCDA) is the voice of dairy farmers in British Columbia.

Our families travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to ensure their sick child has access to necessary and often urgent, life-saving pediatric care only available in Vancouver at BC Children's and BC Women's Hospitals. Today, RMH BC & Y is at a tipping point where the need to serve more families is higher than the space and resources we have to offer them. The situation is resulting in us turning away over 500 families each year who urgently need our support. Despite our expansion in 2014 from a 13-bedroom home to a brand new 73-bedroom facility, 575 steps away from BC Children's and BC Women's Hospital, care teams at the hospital campus routinely have to advise families that RMH BC & Y is full. With few alternatives available, these stressed-out families are plunged into finding a home away from home close to their sick child in a large city they don't know well. Recent provincial projections show we're going to need more spaces in the next few years to even come close to meeting the need. We are looking for community leaders to help support our dream of building a new House adjacent to our current House, to serve more families. In order to do that, we need to fundraise $96M with the goal of breaking ground in early 2026 and welcoming more families by the spring of 2028. together, let us help our families solve the challenge of accommodation close to the hospital where their sick child is being treated.", "lobbyists": "Richard Pass; Sarah Catliff", "lobbyist_count": "2", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Vernon-Lumby", "designated_filer": "Richard Pass", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Children and Families; Health; Housing; Non-Profit Organization", "intended_outcomes": "BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Seeking awareness, support, and funding for the second Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver.", "office_holders_on_report": "5", "sector": "Health & social services", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Jagrup Brar", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Honourable Jagrup Brar", "title_as_recorded": "Minister of Mining and Critical Minerals", "agency_as_recorded": "Mining and Critical Minerals", "lar_id": "LAR-38035", "lar_number": "4283-38035", "meeting_date": "2024-11-19", "month": "2024-11", "posted_date": "2024-12-04", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=38035", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "4283", "client_org_name": "Giga Metals Corporation", "client_business_description": "Mine development company focused on developing the Turnagain nickel deposit in NW BC.", "lobbyists": "Mark Jarvis", "lobbyist_count": "1", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Surrey-Fleetwood", "designated_filer": "Mark Jarvis", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "Y", "subject_matters": "Economic Development and Trade; Energy; Environment; Forestry; Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation; Infrastructure; Mining; Regional Development", "intended_outcomes": "BC-03; BC-04", "topic_of_lobbying": "Advocacy regarding support for the development of the Turnagain nickel deposit.", "office_holders_on_report": "2", "sector": "Mining", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "Y", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Jagrup Brar", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Jagrup Brar", "title_as_recorded": "Minister", "agency_as_recorded": "Mining and Critical Minerals", "lar_id": "LAR-38278", "lar_number": "2810-38278", "meeting_date": "2024-11-19", "month": "2024-11", "posted_date": "2024-12-13", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=38278", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "2810", "client_org_name": "Surrey Board of Trade", "client_business_description": "The Surrey Board of Trade represents 6000 member contacts, and over 60,000 employees, representing 3000 businesses.

Our families travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to ensure their sick child has access to necessary and often urgent, life-saving pediatric care only available in Vancouver at BC Children's and BC Women's Hospitals. Today, RMH BC & Y is at a tipping point where the need to serve more families is higher than the space and resources we have to offer them. The situation is resulting in us turning away over 500 families each year who urgently need our support. Despite our expansion in 2014 from a 13-bedroom home to a brand new 73-bedroom facility, 575 steps away from BC Children's and BC Women's Hospital, care teams at the hospital campus routinely have to advise families that RMH BC & Y is full. With few alternatives available, these stressed-out families are plunged into finding a home away from home close to their sick child in a large city they don't know well. Recent provincial projections show we're going to need more spaces in the next few years to even come close to meeting the need. We are looking for community leaders to help support our dream of building a new House adjacent to our current House, to serve more families. In order to do that, we need to fundraise $96M with the goal of breaking ground in early 2026 and welcoming more families by the spring of 2028. together, let us help our families solve the challenge of accommodation close to the hospital where their sick child is being treated.", "lobbyists": "Sarah Catliff; Richard Pass", "lobbyist_count": "2", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Mid Island-Pacific Rim", "designated_filer": "Richard Pass", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Children and Families; Health; Housing; Non-Profit Organization", "intended_outcomes": "BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Seeking awareness, support, and funding for the second Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver.", "office_holders_on_report": "1", "sector": "Health & social services", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Josie Osborne", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Josie Osborne", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Mid Island-Pacific Rim", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-46341", "lar_number": "3844-46341", "meeting_date": "2025-10-30", "month": "2025-10", "posted_date": "2025-11-04", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=46341", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3844", "client_org_name": "BC Association of Community Health Centres", "client_business_description": "BCACHC represents its member Community Health Centres and works with government and communities to support the development and operation of CHCs across the province.

Our families travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to ensure their sick child has access to necessary and often urgent, life-saving pediatric care only available in Vancouver at BC Children's and BC Women's Hospitals. Today, RMH BC & Y is at a tipping point where the need to serve more families is higher than the space and resources we have to offer them. The situation is resulting in us turning away over 500 families each year who urgently need our support. Despite our expansion in 2014 from a 13-bedroom home to a brand new 73-bedroom facility, 575 steps away from BC Children's and BC Women's Hospital, care teams at the hospital campus routinely have to advise families that RMH BC & Y is full. With few alternatives available, these stressed-out families are plunged into finding a home away from home close to their sick child in a large city they don't know well. Recent provincial projections show we're going to need more spaces in the next few years to even come close to meeting the need. We are looking for community leaders to help support our dream of building a new House adjacent to our current House, to serve more families.

Our families travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to ensure their sick child has access to necessary and often urgent, life-saving pediatric care only available in Vancouver at BC Children's and BC Women's Hospitals. Today, RMH BC & Y is at a tipping point where the need to serve more families is higher than the space and resources we have to offer them. The situation is resulting in us turning away over 500 families each year who urgently need our support. Despite our expansion in 2014 from a 13-bedroom home to a brand new 73-bedroom facility, 575 steps away from BC Children's and BC Women's Hospital, care teams at the hospital campus routinely have to advise families that RMH BC & Y is full. With few alternatives available, these stressed-out families are plunged into finding a home away from home close to their sick child in a large city they don't know well. Recent provincial projections show we're going to need more spaces in the next few years to even come close to meeting the need. We are looking for community leaders to help support our dream of building a new House adjacent to our current House, to serve more families. In order to do that, we need to fundraise $96M with the goal of breaking ground in early 2026 and welcoming more families by the spring of 2028. together, let us help our families solve the challenge of accommodation close to the hospital where their sick child is being treated.", "lobbyists": "Sarah Catliff; Richard Pass", "lobbyist_count": "2", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Mid Island-Pacific Rim", "designated_filer": "Richard Pass", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Children and Families; Health; Housing; Non-Profit Organization", "intended_outcomes": "BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Seeking awareness, support, and funding for the second Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver.", "office_holders_on_report": "3", "sector": "Health & social services", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Josie Osborne", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Seamus Wolfe", "title_as_recorded": "Chief of Staff", "agency_as_recorded": "Health", "lar_id": "LAR-52296", "lar_number": "514-52296", "meeting_date": "2026-05-27", "month": "2026-05", "posted_date": "2026-06-14", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=52296", "registration_type": "Consultant", "client_org_num": "514", "client_org_name": "British Columbia Pharmacy Association", "client_business_description": "The British Columbia Pharmacy Association (BCPhA) is an organization that supports and advances the professional and economic interests of community pharmacists and pharmacies in the province.

Our families travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to ensure their sick child has access to necessary and often urgent, life-saving pediatric care only available in Vancouver at BC Children's and BC Women's Hospitals. Today, RMH BC & Y is at a tipping point where the need to serve more families is higher than the space and resources we have to offer them. The situation is resulting in us turning away over 500 families each year who urgently need our support. Despite our expansion in 2014 from a 13-bedroom home to a brand new 73-bedroom facility, 575 steps away from BC Children's and BC Women's Hospital, care teams at the hospital campus routinely have to advise families that RMH BC & Y is full. With few alternatives available, these stressed-out families are plunged into finding a home away from home close to their sick child in a large city they don't know well. Recent provincial projections show we're going to need more spaces in the next few years to even come close to meeting the need. We are looking for community leaders to help support our dream of building a new House adjacent to our current House, to serve more families. In order to do that, we need to fundraise $96M with the goal of breaking ground in early 2026 and welcoming more families by the spring of 2028. together, let us help our families solve the challenge of accommodation close to the hospital where their sick child is being treated.", "lobbyists": "Richard Pass; Sarah Catliff", "lobbyist_count": "2", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Mid Island-Pacific Rim", "designated_filer": "Richard Pass", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Children and Families; Health; Housing; Non-Profit Organization", "intended_outcomes": "BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Seeking awareness, support, and funding for the second Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver.", "office_holders_on_report": "5", "sector": "Health & social services", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Josie Osborne", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "James McNish", "title_as_recorded": "Chief of Staff", "agency_as_recorded": "Health", "lar_id": "LAR-54384", "lar_number": "1717-54384", "meeting_date": "2026-09-21", "month": "2026-09", "posted_date": "2026-09-25", "record_source": "public report page posted after export", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=54384", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "1717", "client_org_name": "Hospital Employees' Union", "client_business_description": "The Hospital Employees' Union (HEU) is a British Columbia trade union representing more than 50,000 health care and community social service workers in matters related to collective bargaining, workplace health and safety, contract enforcement, and other advocacy.", "lobbyists": "Barb Nederpel; Caelie Frampton; Lynn Bueckert", "lobbyist_count": "3", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Mid Island-Pacific Rim", "designated_filer": "Lynn Bueckert", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Finances and Budgets; Health; Labour/Labour Relations; Privatization and Outsourcing", "intended_outcomes": "BC-03; BC-04; BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Promote the public and non-profit delivery of publicly funded health services and the public financing of health care infrastructure including acute care, long-term care, assisted living and community health. || Supporting health care workers in rural and remote communities", "office_holders_on_report": "4", "sector": "Labour unions", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Kelly Greene", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Kelly Greene", "title_as_recorded": "MINISTER", "agency_as_recorded": "Emergency Management and Climate Readiness", "lar_id": "LAR-38278", "lar_number": "2810-38278", "meeting_date": "2024-11-19", "month": "2024-11", "posted_date": "2024-12-13", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=38278", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "2810", "client_org_name": "Surrey Board of Trade", "client_business_description": "The Surrey Board of Trade represents 6000 member contacts, and over 60,000 employees, representing 3000 businesses.

The Federation is unique as a political organization because it is the membership that sets the organization's policies and priorities by referendum and census. It is founded on the principle of one member - one vote. Analysis of the vote results and the implications lead to a formal CFIB position on an issue. Each member of CFIB is a Canadian based owner operator of an independent (i.e. non-publicly traded) business.

The Federation is unique as a political organization because it is the membership that sets the organization's policies and priorities by referendum and census.

Immediate Funding for the Invasive Mussel Defence Program – $5.5 Million Investment The IMDP has been underfunded for years, and its effectiveness has been compromised by budget reductions and staffing shortages. The number of watercraft inspections has declined by 60% since 2019, despite an increasing threat from neighboring jurisdictions like Idaho. We urge the provincial government to allocate at least $5.5 million to the IMDP in 2025 to restore and expand inspections. 2. Mandatory Inspections for All Watercraft Entering B.C. Unlike Alberta, which is introducing mandatory watercraft inspections in 2026, B.C. currently only inspects boats that pass an open station, leaving significant gaps in coverage. We recommend amending the Wildlife Act and Water Sustainability Act to require mandatory inspections for all incoming watercraft. 3. Federal Support for Prevention, Not Just Detection Federal funding has been largely focused on mussel detection rather than prevention. As we have seen in Lake Winnipeg and are witnessing in Idaho’s Snake River, once mussels are detected, the infestation and damage is irreversible. We urge you to advocate for federal funding that prioritizes early prevention and border screening programs, as well as a moratorium on out-of-country watercraft given that the copper-based chemical treatments in Idaho’s Snake River were unsuccessful in eliminating quagga mussels but did kill between 6 and 7 tons of fish, including 48 white sturgeon. 4. A Western Canada Invasive Mussel-Free Zone The province should collaborate with Alberta and Saskatchewan to establish a regional invasive mussel prevention strategy, including shared policies, inspection stations, and penalties. Aligning with Alberta’s AIS Task Force recommendations will create a more effective defense against mussel contamination across Western Canada. 5. Aligning Penalties to Deter Non-Compliance Currently, B.C.’s fines for non-compliance with inspection programs are far lower than Alberta’s. We recommend increasing penalties to at least match Alberta’s $4,200 fine for failing to stop at an inspection station and implementing higher fines for larger, high-risk watercraft. 6. Clear Policy to Limit Chemical Use in “Rapid Response” Strategies While some jurisdictions propose chemical treatments as a last resort for invasive mussels like in the Snake River, history shows that these measures are often ineffective, costly, and harmful to other aquatic species, including salmon populations. The best strategy remains prevention through mandatory inspections and proactive funding.

When the relief program was initially announced, the public understanding was that wineries would be permitted to temporarily utilize replacement grapes and grape juice to maintain production and market presence during an extraordinary agricultural crisis. Government communications emphasized the importance of helping wineries survive the crop failure, preserve employment, and continue supporting the provincial economy and tourism sector. Subsequent guidance issued by the BCLDB, however, appears to materially expand the scope of the cap beyond replacement wine volumes alone. Specifically, current interpretations indicate that the annual support cap may now apply to the combined total sales or production volumes of Replacement Wine, BC VQA wine, and 100% British Columbia wine. As a result, wineries that exceeded their historical Olympic average due to legitimate business growth, prior vintage releases, increased consumer demand for BC wine, tourism recovery, or successful sales of BC-grown wines may now be facing significant financial penalties or increased taxation. If BC-grown wines are now being included within the same support cap calculations as replacement wine utilizing imported inputs, then the program is no longer simply limiting temporary relief measures — it is effectively penalizing wineries for successfully selling legitimate British Columbia wine during a recovery period. The wine industry is a foundational component of the South Okanagan economy. Beyond agriculture itself, wineries support tourism, hospitality, restaurants, transportation providers, manufacturing, retail businesses, trades, and countless local jobs. Policies that unintentionally penalize growth or recovery within this sector risk broader economic consequences for communities throughout the region. Accordingly, the Penticton & Wine Country Chamber of Commerce respectfully requests that the Province and the BCLDB: 1. Exclude BC VQA and 100% BC-grown wines from the replacement wine support-cap calculations where those wines were produced from BC grapes and are unrelated to replacement wine production. 2. Establish a transparent appeal or variance process for wineries that exceeded their Olympic average due to legitimate market demand, tourism recovery, release of prior vintages, or growth in sales unrelated to imported grapes or grape juice. 3. Honour the original intent and publicly communicated purpose of the program by ensuring wineries that acted in good faith based on the initial framework are not subjected to unexpected financial penalties or retroactive disadvantage. 4. Apply support-cap restrictions only to the portion of production directly attributable to imported grapes, grape juice, or replacement wine production. 5. Extend the replacement wine sales and support window beyond the current March 31, 2028 expiry date to at least March 31, 2030.", "office_holders_on_report": "5", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Lana Popham", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Lana Popham", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Saanich South", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-51900", "lar_number": "2389-51900", "meeting_date": "2026-05-25", "month": "2026-05", "posted_date": "2026-06-15", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=51900", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "2389", "client_org_name": "Pembina Pipeline Corporation", "client_business_description": "Pembina is a leading energy transportation and midstream service provider that has served North America’s energy industry for more than 70 years.

While we recognize and support the government’s goal of accelerating the approval and development of large-scale projects to increase economic output given the ongoing tariffs with the U.S. Administration, we are unable to support the legislation in its current form. Our concerns lie primarily in three areas: 1. Vague Language and Broad Discretion The current draft of Bill 15 contains unclear definitions and open-ended powers, particularly in the criteria used to designate a project as “provincially significant.” This lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent application and erodes public trust in land-use decision-making processes. More detail and accountability are needed to ensure the act is used for its intended purpose and not as a blanket override tool. 2. Erosion of Indigenous and Local Government Authority The Chamber is particularly concerned about provisions that would allow the provincial government to circumvent the rights of Indigenous communities and the authority of local governments in land-use planning. Reconciliation and strong local governance are cornerstones of sustainable and inclusive economic development. This bill, as currently written, undermines both. 3. Need for Parallel Red Tape Reduction While we agree that infrastructure projects must move forward more efficiently, we urge the province to tackle the root causes of permitting delays by reviewing and removing unnecessary red tape and administrative bottlenecks. Streamlining existing processes—not bypassing consultation and oversight—is a more balanced and sustainable approach. Considering these concerns, we recommend that Bill 15 be revised to include: • Clear definitions and constraints on when and how the Act may be invoked. • Strong protections for Indigenous rights and meaningful consultation requirements. • A collaborative framework that respects local land-use authority. • Parallel commitments to reduce regulatory and permitting inefficiencies. The business community in Penticton is aligned with the provincial vision of building stronger, more connected communities. However, this vision must be pursued in a way that maintains the integrity of democratic institutions, respects Indigenous sovereignty, and builds confidence through transparency and accountability.", "office_holders_on_report": "11", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Mike Farnworth", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Mike Farnworth", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Port Coquitlam", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-42815", "lar_number": "3514-42815", "meeting_date": "2025-05-20", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-10", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=42815", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3514", "client_org_name": "Alzheimer Society of BC and Yukon", "client_business_description": "The Alzheimer Society of BC and Yukon is a charity health organization active in communities across the province providing dementia supports and services to people affected by dementia.

These experts would work together with federal, provincial, municipal/regional, and Indigenous governments to implement and monitor the efficacy of new housing policies introduced by the provincial government. The roundtable should consist of individuals representing the various housing sub-sector groups. Subgroups could work in partnership with the provincial government on different issues such as non-market housing and strata issues, for example. The purpose would be to review potential housing legislation early, ensuring that the draft policy is holistic, pressure tested for unanticipated consequences, and likely to achieve stated goals. Where expertise on particular topics is required, roundtable members could be temporarily swapped out to ensure due diligence is conducted on consequential issues while maintaining a manageable roundtable size. Roundtable members could also represent specialized subcommittees, so that relevant expertise is available to support policy development in specific areas. The full roundtable could meet quarterly to evaluate the overall impact of new policies and advise the government on the viability of incoming policies and regulations. The roundtable model has already been successfully employed by the provincial government (Energy Step Code Council and Development Finance Review Committee), and the federal government (National Advisory Council on Early Learning and Child Care). These examples can be reviewed for guidance on the creation of a permanent provincial housing roundtable, ensuring effective structure and processes for new housing policy directions. || Housing Taxation Review Conduct a thorough housing taxation review: 1. Property Transfer Tax as it was originally intended as a Luxury Tax. Properties sold below the current average BC home price (reviewed annually) should be exempt. Resale properties and new builds should be treated the same for the purposes of the tax. There should be no distinction made between them. Simplify the tax by reducing the number of thresholds and taxation rates. Periodically review special categories (First Time Home Buyers, for example) for effectiveness. 2. Review the efficacy of the Speculation and Vacancy Tax (SVT), Foreign Buyer Tax, and BC Home Flipping Tax: Eliminate the duplication of an existing federal tax (the Underused Housing Tax) by repealing the SVT. Examine Foreign Buyer Tax exemptions with an eye upon unique markets such as ski resorts, where the impact on the local housing market is minimal, but the effects on the local tourism economy are significant. Repeal the BC Home Flipping Tax, as analysis from BC Real Estate Association's Economics Department has shown that the tax will have minimal impact on affordability (see https://www.bcrea.bc.ca/economics/more-trouble-than-it-is-worth-analyzing-the-impacts-and-consequences-of-the-provincial-flipping-tax/).", "office_holders_on_report": "4", "sector": "Real estate, development & construction", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Niki Sharma", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Niki Sharma", "title_as_recorded": "Attorney General of British Columbia", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-40293", "lar_number": "1313-40293", "meeting_date": "2025-03-12", "month": "2025-03", "posted_date": "2025-03-12", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40293", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "1313", "client_org_name": "Electrical Contractors Association of British Columbia", "client_business_description": "The Electrical Contractors Association of BC (ECABC) was founded in 1952 and represents approximately 140 members across the province including open shop and union electrical contractors, line utility contractors, and associate members.

When the relief program was initially announced, the public understanding was that wineries would be permitted to temporarily utilize replacement grapes and grape juice to maintain production and market presence during an extraordinary agricultural crisis. Government communications emphasized the importance of helping wineries survive the crop failure, preserve employment, and continue supporting the provincial economy and tourism sector. Subsequent guidance issued by the BCLDB, however, appears to materially expand the scope of the cap beyond replacement wine volumes alone. Specifically, current interpretations indicate that the annual support cap may now apply to the combined total sales or production volumes of Replacement Wine, BC VQA wine, and 100% British Columbia wine. As a result, wineries that exceeded their historical Olympic average due to legitimate business growth, prior vintage releases, increased consumer demand for BC wine, tourism recovery, or successful sales of BC-grown wines may now be facing significant financial penalties or increased taxation. If BC-grown wines are now being included within the same support cap calculations as replacement wine utilizing imported inputs, then the program is no longer simply limiting temporary relief measures — it is effectively penalizing wineries for successfully selling legitimate British Columbia wine during a recovery period. The wine industry is a foundational component of the South Okanagan economy. Beyond agriculture itself, wineries support tourism, hospitality, restaurants, transportation providers, manufacturing, retail businesses, trades, and countless local jobs. Policies that unintentionally penalize growth or recovery within this sector risk broader economic consequences for communities throughout the region. Accordingly, the Penticton & Wine Country Chamber of Commerce respectfully requests that the Province and the BCLDB: 1. Exclude BC VQA and 100% BC-grown wines from the replacement wine support-cap calculations where those wines were produced from BC grapes and are unrelated to replacement wine production. 2. Establish a transparent appeal or variance process for wineries that exceeded their Olympic average due to legitimate market demand, tourism recovery, release of prior vintages, or growth in sales unrelated to imported grapes or grape juice. 3. Honour the original intent and publicly communicated purpose of the program by ensuring wineries that acted in good faith based on the initial framework are not subjected to unexpected financial penalties or retroactive disadvantage. 4. Apply support-cap restrictions only to the portion of production directly attributable to imported grapes, grape juice, or replacement wine production. 5. Extend the replacement wine sales and support window beyond the current March 31, 2028 expiry date to at least March 31, 2030.", "office_holders_on_report": "5", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Nina Krieger", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Nina Krieger", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Victoria-Swan Lake", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-51856", "lar_number": "3762-51856", "meeting_date": "2026-05-20", "month": "2026-05", "posted_date": "2026-06-02", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=51856", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3762", "client_org_name": "Imperial Tobacco Canada Limited", "client_business_description": "Importation and distribution of tobacco products, vaping products and accessories.", "lobbyists": "Sarah Tousignant-Larivière", "lobbyist_count": "1", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Victoria-Swan Lake", "designated_filer": "Frank Silva", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "Y", "subject_matters": "Consumer Issues; Environment; Finances and Budgets; Health; Justice and Law Enforcement; Mental Health and Addictions; Small Business; Taxation and Finance", "intended_outcomes": "BC-01; BC-02; BC-03; BC-04", "topic_of_lobbying": "Tobacco and nicotine products regulation.

Immediate Funding for the Invasive Mussel Defence Program – $5.5 Million Investment The IMDP has been underfunded for years, and its effectiveness has been compromised by budget reductions and staffing shortages. The number of watercraft inspections has declined by 60% since 2019, despite an increasing threat from neighboring jurisdictions like Idaho. We urge the provincial government to allocate at least $5.5 million to the IMDP in 2025 to restore and expand inspections. 2. Mandatory Inspections for All Watercraft Entering B.C. Unlike Alberta, which is introducing mandatory watercraft inspections in 2026, B.C. currently only inspects boats that pass an open station, leaving significant gaps in coverage. We recommend amending the Wildlife Act and Water Sustainability Act to require mandatory inspections for all incoming watercraft. 3. Federal Support for Prevention, Not Just Detection Federal funding has been largely focused on mussel detection rather than prevention. As we have seen in Lake Winnipeg and are witnessing in Idaho’s Snake River, once mussels are detected, the infestation and damage is irreversible. We urge you to advocate for federal funding that prioritizes early prevention and border screening programs, as well as a moratorium on out-of-country watercraft given that the copper-based chemical treatments in Idaho’s Snake River were unsuccessful in eliminating quagga mussels but did kill between 6 and 7 tons of fish, including 48 white sturgeon. 4. A Western Canada Invasive Mussel-Free Zone The province should collaborate with Alberta and Saskatchewan to establish a regional invasive mussel prevention strategy, including shared policies, inspection stations, and penalties. Aligning with Alberta’s AIS Task Force recommendations will create a more effective defense against mussel contamination across Western Canada. 5. Aligning Penalties to Deter Non-Compliance Currently, B.C.’s fines for non-compliance with inspection programs are far lower than Alberta’s. We recommend increasing penalties to at least match Alberta’s $4,200 fine for failing to stop at an inspection station and implementing higher fines for larger, high-risk watercraft. 6. Clear Policy to Limit Chemical Use in “Rapid Response” Strategies While some jurisdictions propose chemical treatments as a last resort for invasive mussels like in the Snake River, history shows that these measures are often ineffective, costly, and harmful to other aquatic species, including salmon populations. The best strategy remains prevention through mandatory inspections and proactive funding. Public and Business Community Support This issue is not just an environmental concern—it is an economic imperative. In March 2024, the Okanagan Basin Water Board (OBWB) convened a multi-stakeholder working group of over 100 representatives, including local governments, First Nations, marinas, tourism associations, and chambers of commerce.

These experts would work together with federal, provincial, municipal/regional, and Indigenous governments to implement and monitor the efficacy of new housing policies introduced by the provincial government. The roundtable should consist of individuals representing the various housing sub-sector groups. Subgroups could work in partnership with the provincial government on different issues such as non-market housing and strata issues, for example. The purpose would be to review potential housing legislation early, ensuring that the draft policy is holistic, pressure tested for unanticipated consequences, and likely to achieve stated goals. Where expertise on particular topics is required, roundtable members could be temporarily swapped out to ensure due diligence is conducted on consequential issues while maintaining a manageable roundtable size. Roundtable members could also represent specialized subcommittees, so that relevant expertise is available to support policy development in specific areas. The full roundtable could meet quarterly to evaluate the overall impact of new policies and advise the government on the viability of incoming policies and regulations. The roundtable model has already been successfully employed by the provincial government (Energy Step Code Council and Development Finance Review Committee), and the federal government (National Advisory Council on Early Learning and Child Care). These examples can be reviewed for guidance on the creation of a permanent provincial housing roundtable, ensuring effective structure and processes for new housing policy directions. || Housing Taxation Review Conduct a thorough housing taxation review: 1. Property Transfer Tax as it was originally intended as a Luxury Tax. Properties sold below the current average BC home price (reviewed annually) should be exempt. Resale properties and new builds should be treated the same for the purposes of the tax. There should be no distinction made between them. Simplify the tax by reducing the number of thresholds and taxation rates. Periodically review special categories (First Time Home Buyers, for example) for effectiveness. 2. Review the efficacy of the Speculation and Vacancy Tax (SVT), Foreign Buyer Tax, and BC Home Flipping Tax: Eliminate the duplication of an existing federal tax (the Underused Housing Tax) by repealing the SVT. Examine Foreign Buyer Tax exemptions with an eye upon unique markets such as ski resorts, where the impact on the local housing market is minimal, but the effects on the local tourism economy are significant. Repeal the BC Home Flipping Tax, as analysis from BC Real Estate Association's Economics Department has shown that the tax will have minimal impact on affordability (see https://www.bcrea.bc.ca/economics/more-trouble-than-it-is-worth-analyzing-the-impacts-and-consequences-of-the-provincial-flipping-tax/).", "office_holders_on_report": "4", "sector": "Real estate, development & construction", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Randene Neill", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Randene Neill", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Powell River-Sunshine Coast", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-40876", "lar_number": "744-40876", "meeting_date": "2025-03-12", "month": "2025-03", "posted_date": "2025-04-08", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40876", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "744", "client_org_name": "Canadian Federation of Independent Business", "client_business_description": "Founded in 1971, CFIB is a non-profit, non-partisan business organization which exists to promote and protect a system of free competitive enterprise, to strengthen the entrepreneurial culture in Canada and to give independent business a greater voice in determining the laws that govern business and the nation.

While we recognize and support the government’s goal of accelerating the approval and development of large-scale projects to increase economic output given the ongoing tariffs with the U.S. Administration, we are unable to support the legislation in its current form. Our concerns lie primarily in three areas: 1. Vague Language and Broad Discretion The current draft of Bill 15 contains unclear definitions and open-ended powers, particularly in the criteria used to designate a project as “provincially significant.” This lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent application and erodes public trust in land-use decision-making processes. More detail and accountability are needed to ensure the act is used for its intended purpose and not as a blanket override tool. 2. Erosion of Indigenous and Local Government Authority The Chamber is particularly concerned about provisions that would allow the provincial government to circumvent the rights of Indigenous communities and the authority of local governments in land-use planning. Reconciliation and strong local governance are cornerstones of sustainable and inclusive economic development. This bill, as currently written, undermines both. 3. Need for Parallel Red Tape Reduction While we agree that infrastructure projects must move forward more efficiently, we urge the province to tackle the root causes of permitting delays by reviewing and removing unnecessary red tape and administrative bottlenecks. Streamlining existing processes—not bypassing consultation and oversight—is a more balanced and sustainable approach. Considering these concerns, we recommend that Bill 15 be revised to include: • Clear definitions and constraints on when and how the Act may be invoked. • Strong protections for Indigenous rights and meaningful consultation requirements. • A collaborative framework that respects local land-use authority. • Parallel commitments to reduce regulatory and permitting inefficiencies. The business community in Penticton is aligned with the provincial vision of building stronger, more connected communities. However, this vision must be pursued in a way that maintains the integrity of democratic institutions, respects Indigenous sovereignty, and builds confidence through transparency and accountability.", "office_holders_on_report": "11", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Randene Neill", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Randene Neill", "title_as_recorded": "Minister of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship i", "agency_as_recorded": "Water, Land and Resource Stewardship", "lar_id": "LAR-43210", "lar_number": "3326-43210", "meeting_date": "2025-05-21", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-16", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=43210", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3326", "client_org_name": "Pacific Salmon Foundation", "client_business_description": "The Pacific Salmon Foundation is a not-for-profit, charitable organization incorporated under the Canada Not-For-Profit Corporations Act dedicated to promoting the conservation, restoration and enhancement of wild Pacific salmon for the benefit of present and future generations.", "lobbyists": "Jason Hwang; Kilian Stenfest", "lobbyist_count": "2", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Powell River-Sunshine Coast", "designated_filer": "Michael Meneer", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Conservation; Fisheries", "intended_outcomes": "BC-04", "topic_of_lobbying": "Provincial engagement in the Federal Government’s aquaculture transition plan and ban on open-net pen fish farms by 2029.", "office_holders_on_report": "2", "sector": "Environment & conservation", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Randene Neill", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Randene Neill", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Powell River-Sunshine Coast", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-43545", "lar_number": "2892-43545", "meeting_date": "2025-05-21", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-16", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=43545", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "2892", "client_org_name": "MakeWay Charitable Society", "client_business_description": "MakeWay is a national charity that builds partnerships and solutions to help nature and communities thrive together.

While we recognize and support the government’s goal of accelerating the approval and development of large-scale projects to increase economic output given the ongoing tariffs with the U.S. Administration, we are unable to support the legislation in its current form. Our concerns lie primarily in three areas: 1. Vague Language and Broad Discretion The current draft of Bill 15 contains unclear definitions and open-ended powers, particularly in the criteria used to designate a project as “provincially significant.” This lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent application and erodes public trust in land-use decision-making processes. More detail and accountability are needed to ensure the act is used for its intended purpose and not as a blanket override tool. 2. Erosion of Indigenous and Local Government Authority The Chamber is particularly concerned about provisions that would allow the provincial government to circumvent the rights of Indigenous communities and the authority of local governments in land-use planning. Reconciliation and strong local governance are cornerstones of sustainable and inclusive economic development. This bill, as currently written, undermines both. 3. Need for Parallel Red Tape Reduction While we agree that infrastructure projects must move forward more efficiently, we urge the province to tackle the root causes of permitting delays by reviewing and removing unnecessary red tape and administrative bottlenecks. Streamlining existing processes—not bypassing consultation and oversight—is a more balanced and sustainable approach. Considering these concerns, we recommend that Bill 15 be revised to include: • Clear definitions and constraints on when and how the Act may be invoked. • Strong protections for Indigenous rights and meaningful consultation requirements. • A collaborative framework that respects local land-use authority. • Parallel commitments to reduce regulatory and permitting inefficiencies. The business community in Penticton is aligned with the provincial vision of building stronger, more connected communities. However, this vision must be pursued in a way that maintains the integrity of democratic institutions, respects Indigenous sovereignty, and builds confidence through transparency and accountability.", "office_holders_on_report": "11", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Ravi Kahlon", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Ravi Kahlon", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Delta North", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-43424", "lar_number": "5241-43424", "meeting_date": "2025-05-27", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-16", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=43424", "registration_type": "Consultant", "client_org_num": "5241", "client_org_name": "Concrete Association of BC", "client_business_description": "Formed in 1962, Concrete BC’s objectives are to: Present industry view to government, both proactively and in response to government proposals.

When the relief program was initially announced, the public understanding was that wineries would be permitted to temporarily utilize replacement grapes and grape juice to maintain production and market presence during an extraordinary agricultural crisis. Government communications emphasized the importance of helping wineries survive the crop failure, preserve employment, and continue supporting the provincial economy and tourism sector. Subsequent guidance issued by the BCLDB, however, appears to materially expand the scope of the cap beyond replacement wine volumes alone. Specifically, current interpretations indicate that the annual support cap may now apply to the combined total sales or production volumes of Replacement Wine, BC VQA wine, and 100% British Columbia wine. As a result, wineries that exceeded their historical Olympic average due to legitimate business growth, prior vintage releases, increased consumer demand for BC wine, tourism recovery, or successful sales of BC-grown wines may now be facing significant financial penalties or increased taxation. If BC-grown wines are now being included within the same support cap calculations as replacement wine utilizing imported inputs, then the program is no longer simply limiting temporary relief measures — it is effectively penalizing wineries for successfully selling legitimate British Columbia wine during a recovery period. The wine industry is a foundational component of the South Okanagan economy. Beyond agriculture itself, wineries support tourism, hospitality, restaurants, transportation providers, manufacturing, retail businesses, trades, and countless local jobs. Policies that unintentionally penalize growth or recovery within this sector risk broader economic consequences for communities throughout the region. Accordingly, the Penticton & Wine Country Chamber of Commerce respectfully requests that the Province and the BCLDB: 1. Exclude BC VQA and 100% BC-grown wines from the replacement wine support-cap calculations where those wines were produced from BC grapes and are unrelated to replacement wine production. 2. Establish a transparent appeal or variance process for wineries that exceeded their Olympic average due to legitimate market demand, tourism recovery, release of prior vintages, or growth in sales unrelated to imported grapes or grape juice. 3. Honour the original intent and publicly communicated purpose of the program by ensuring wineries that acted in good faith based on the initial framework are not subjected to unexpected financial penalties or retroactive disadvantage. 4. Apply support-cap restrictions only to the portion of production directly attributable to imported grapes, grape juice, or replacement wine production. 5. Extend the replacement wine sales and support window beyond the current March 31, 2028 expiry date to at least March 31, 2030.", "office_holders_on_report": "5", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Ravi Kahlon", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Scott Harris", "title_as_recorded": "Chief of Staff", "agency_as_recorded": "Jobs and Economic Growth", "lar_id": "LAR-51862", "lar_number": "6557-51862", "meeting_date": "2026-05-20", "month": "2026-05", "posted_date": "2026-06-15", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=51862", "registration_type": "Consultant", "client_org_num": "6557", "client_org_name": "Clean Economy Fund", "client_business_description": "Clean Economy Fund is a public foundation with the mission to rally more philanthropy for bold initiatives that support giant leaps towards a prosperous, net zero emission economy.

Our families travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to ensure their sick child has access to necessary and often urgent, life-saving pediatric care only available in Vancouver at BC Children's and BC Women's Hospitals. Today, RMH BC & Y is at a tipping point where the need to serve more families is higher than the space and resources we have to offer them. The situation is resulting in us turning away over 500 families each year who urgently need our support. Despite our expansion in 2014 from a 13-bedroom home to a brand new 73-bedroom facility, 575 steps away from BC Children's and BC Women's Hospital, care teams at the hospital campus routinely have to advise families that RMH BC & Y is full. With few alternatives available, these stressed-out families are plunged into finding a home away from home close to their sick child in a large city they don't know well. Recent provincial projections show we're going to need more spaces in the next few years to even come close to meeting the need. We are looking for community leaders to help support our dream of building a new House adjacent to our current House, to serve more families. In order to do that, we need to fundraise $96M with the goal of breaking ground in early 2026 and welcoming more families by the spring of 2028. together, let us help our families solve the challenge of accommodation close to the hospital where their sick child is being treated.", "lobbyists": "Richard Pass; Sarah Catliff", "lobbyist_count": "2", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Delta North", "designated_filer": "Richard Pass", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Children and Families; Health; Housing; Non-Profit Organization", "intended_outcomes": "BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Seeking awareness, support, and funding for the second Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver.", "office_holders_on_report": "5", "sector": "Health & social services", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Ravi Kahlon", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "James McNish", "title_as_recorded": "Chief of Staff", "agency_as_recorded": "Health", "lar_id": "LAR-54384", "lar_number": "1717-54384", "meeting_date": "2026-09-21", "month": "2026-09", "posted_date": "2026-09-25", "record_source": "public report page posted after export", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=54384", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "1717", "client_org_name": "Hospital Employees' Union", "client_business_description": "The Hospital Employees' Union (HEU) is a British Columbia trade union representing more than 50,000 health care and community social service workers in matters related to collective bargaining, workplace health and safety, contract enforcement, and other advocacy.", "lobbyists": "Barb Nederpel; Caelie Frampton; Lynn Bueckert", "lobbyist_count": "3", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Delta North", "designated_filer": "Lynn Bueckert", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Finances and Budgets; Health; Labour/Labour Relations; Privatization and Outsourcing", "intended_outcomes": "BC-03; BC-04; BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Promote the public and non-profit delivery of publicly funded health services and the public financing of health care infrastructure including acute care, long-term care, assisted living and community health. || Supporting health care workers in rural and remote communities", "office_holders_on_report": "4", "sector": "Labour unions", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Ravi Parmar", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Ravi Parmar", "title_as_recorded": "Minister", "agency_as_recorded": "Forests", "lar_id": "LAR-38149", "lar_number": "1150-38149", "meeting_date": "2024-11-18", "month": "2024-11", "posted_date": "2024-12-10", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=38149", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "1150", "client_org_name": "Council of Forest Industries", "client_business_description": "Organizing and communicating BC forest products industry position on various forest policy matters.

Climate chaos means protecting wilderness and wildlife habitat — with all its natural biodiversity — is absolutely vital to the health of people, communities and the planet. Mobilizing citizens to stand up for our public resources and fight misguided industrial projects with lawful, democratic action is critical.

Hydrogen BC looks forward to continuing its collaboration with the Government of BC, and to advance this collaboration we suggest the following priorities: - Advance the deployment of BC’s hydrogen hubs, and integrate hydrogen corridors that connect key production and end-use regions. - Encourage the adoption of zero-emissions and transitional low-emissions vehicles powered by hydrogen across government fleets and provincial Crown corporations, including public transit. - Provide support for the expansion of fueling station development programs/projects, ensuring they accommodate a broad range of end-uses to help diversify hydrogen market opportunities. - Partner with industry, academic institutions, and community organizations to launch a coordinated awareness raising and public outreach initiative. - Streamlining regulatory and permitting processes for hydrogen projects to ensure timely project development", "office_holders_on_report": "13", "sector": "Oil, gas & energy", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "Y", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Scott McInnis", "party": "Conservative Party of BC", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Scott McInnis", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Columbia River-Revelstoke", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-42735", "lar_number": "2932-42735", "meeting_date": "2025-05-07", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-16", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=42735", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "2932", "client_org_name": "Toyota Canada Inc.", "client_business_description": "Toyota Canada Inc. is the Canadian distributor of Toyota and Lexus automobiles and related parts and services.", "lobbyists": "Leah Michalopulos", "lobbyist_count": "1", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Columbia River-Revelstoke", "designated_filer": "Cyril Dimitris", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Economic Development and Trade; Energy; Environment; Government Procurement; Infrastructure; Transportation", "intended_outcomes": "BC-01; BC-03; BC-04", "topic_of_lobbying": "Provide input and recommendations with respect to BC's climate change policy with specific focus on any zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) policy that may affect the demand, supply, adoption and life cycle management of these vehicles.

Immediate Funding for the Invasive Mussel Defence Program – $5.5 Million Investment The IMDP has been underfunded for years, and its effectiveness has been compromised by budget reductions and staffing shortages. The number of watercraft inspections has declined by 60% since 2019, despite an increasing threat from neighboring jurisdictions like Idaho. We urge the provincial government to allocate at least $5.5 million to the IMDP in 2025 to restore and expand inspections. 2. Mandatory Inspections for All Watercraft Entering B.C. Unlike Alberta, which is introducing mandatory watercraft inspections in 2026, B.C. currently only inspects boats that pass an open station, leaving significant gaps in coverage. We recommend amending the Wildlife Act and Water Sustainability Act to require mandatory inspections for all incoming watercraft. 3. Federal Support for Prevention, Not Just Detection Federal funding has been largely focused on mussel detection rather than prevention. As we have seen in Lake Winnipeg and are witnessing in Idaho’s Snake River, once mussels are detected, the infestation and damage is irreversible. We urge you to advocate for federal funding that prioritizes early prevention and border screening programs, as well as a moratorium on out-of-country watercraft given that the copper-based chemical treatments in Idaho’s Snake River were unsuccessful in eliminating quagga mussels but did kill between 6 and 7 tons of fish, including 48 white sturgeon. 4. A Western Canada Invasive Mussel-Free Zone The province should collaborate with Alberta and Saskatchewan to establish a regional invasive mussel prevention strategy, including shared policies, inspection stations, and penalties. Aligning with Alberta’s AIS Task Force recommendations will create a more effective defense against mussel contamination across Western Canada. 5. Aligning Penalties to Deter Non-Compliance Currently, B.C.’s fines for non-compliance with inspection programs are far lower than Alberta’s. We recommend increasing penalties to at least match Alberta’s $4,200 fine for failing to stop at an inspection station and implementing higher fines for larger, high-risk watercraft. 6. Clear Policy to Limit Chemical Use in “Rapid Response” Strategies While some jurisdictions propose chemical treatments as a last resort for invasive mussels like in the Snake River, history shows that these measures are often ineffective, costly, and harmful to other aquatic species, including salmon populations. The best strategy remains prevention through mandatory inspections and proactive funding. Public and Business Community Support This issue is not just an environmental concern—it is an economic imperative. In March 2024, the Okanagan Basin Water Board (OBWB) convened a multi-stakeholder working group of over 100 representatives, including local governments, First Nations, marinas, tourism associations, and chambers of commerce. The overwhelming consensus was that B.C. must take stronger action now to protect our waters, economy, and way of life.", "office_holders_on_report": "6", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Spencer Chandra Herbert", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Spencer Chandra Herbert", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Vancouver-West End", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-40096", "lar_number": "1447-40096", "meeting_date": "2025-02-19", "month": "2025-02", "posted_date": "2025-03-15", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40096", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "1447", "client_org_name": "First Call Child and Youth Advocacy Society", "client_business_description": "Not-for-profit society putting children and youth first in BC through public education, community mobilization and public policy advocacy.", "lobbyists": "Adrienne Montani", "lobbyist_count": "1", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Vancouver-West End", "designated_filer": "Adrienne Montani", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Children and Families; Education; Finances and Budgets; Health; Housing; Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation; Labour/Labour Relations; Mental Health and Addictions; Taxation and Finance", "intended_outcomes": "BC-01; BC-02; BC-03; BC-04", "topic_of_lobbying": "Advocacy to reduce child and family poverty through better policy and programs.", "office_holders_on_report": "93", "sector": "Health & social services", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Spencer Chandra Herbert", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Spencer Chandra Herbert", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Vancouver-West End", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-40684", "lar_number": "1717-40684", "meeting_date": "2025-02-27", "month": "2025-02", "posted_date": "2025-03-16", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40684", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "1717", "client_org_name": "Hospital Employees' Union", "client_business_description": "The Hospital Employees' Union (HEU) is a British Columbia trade union representing more than 50,000 health care and community social service workers in matters related to collective bargaining, workplace health and safety, contract enforcement, and other advocacy.", "lobbyists": "Lynn Bueckert; Dolie Bulalakaw; Caelie Frampton; Victoria Harper; Barb Nederpel; Jenni Reitan Reitan; Sara Rozell; Joane Safstrom; Maia Sampson", "lobbyist_count": "9", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "Vancouver-West End", "designated_filer": "Lynn Bueckert", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Employment and Training; Finances and Budgets; Health; Labour/Labour Relations", "intended_outcomes": "BC-01; BC-02; BC-03; BC-04; BC-05", "topic_of_lobbying": "Promote safe, stable and high quality residential care, assisted living and home care services through increased staffing levels, enforceable standards of care and secure and standardized labour standards.", "office_holders_on_report": "32", "sector": "Labour unions", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Spencer Chandra Herbert", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Spencer Chandra Herbert", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for Vancouver-West End", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-40543", "lar_number": "4711-40543", "meeting_date": "2025-03-04", "month": "2025-03", "posted_date": "2025-03-14", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40543", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "4711", "client_org_name": "Clayoquot Biosphere Trust", "client_business_description": "The Clayoquot Biosphere Trust Society (CBT), designated under the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve program, is a Society registered under the British Columbia Society Act.

These experts would work together with federal, provincial, municipal/regional, and Indigenous governments to implement and monitor the efficacy of new housing policies introduced by the provincial government. The roundtable should consist of individuals representing the various housing sub-sector groups. Subgroups could work in partnership with the provincial government on different issues such as non-market housing and strata issues, for example. The purpose would be to review potential housing legislation early, ensuring that the draft policy is holistic, pressure tested for unanticipated consequences, and likely to achieve stated goals. Where expertise on particular topics is required, roundtable members could be temporarily swapped out to ensure due diligence is conducted on consequential issues while maintaining a manageable roundtable size. Roundtable members could also represent specialized subcommittees, so that relevant expertise is available to support policy development in specific areas. The full roundtable could meet quarterly to evaluate the overall impact of new policies and advise the government on the viability of incoming policies and regulations. The roundtable model has already been successfully employed by the provincial government (Energy Step Code Council and Development Finance Review Committee), and the federal government (National Advisory Council on Early Learning and Child Care). These examples can be reviewed for guidance on the creation of a permanent provincial housing roundtable, ensuring effective structure and processes for new housing policy directions. || Housing Taxation Review Conduct a thorough housing taxation review: 1. Property Transfer Tax as it was originally intended as a Luxury Tax. Properties sold below the current average BC home price (reviewed annually) should be exempt. Resale properties and new builds should be treated the same for the purposes of the tax. There should be no distinction made between them. Simplify the tax by reducing the number of thresholds and taxation rates. Periodically review special categories (First Time Home Buyers, for example) for effectiveness. 2. Review the efficacy of the Speculation and Vacancy Tax (SVT), Foreign Buyer Tax, and BC Home Flipping Tax: Eliminate the duplication of an existing federal tax (the Underused Housing Tax) by repealing the SVT. Examine Foreign Buyer Tax exemptions with an eye upon unique markets such as ski resorts, where the impact on the local housing market is minimal, but the effects on the local tourism economy are significant. Repeal the BC Home Flipping Tax, as analysis from BC Real Estate Association's Economics Department has shown that the tax will have minimal impact on affordability (see https://www.bcrea.bc.ca/economics/more-trouble-than-it-is-worth-analyzing-the-impacts-and-consequences-of-the-provincial-flipping-tax/).", "office_holders_on_report": "4", "sector": "Real estate, development & construction", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Susie Chant", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Susie Chant", "title_as_recorded": "MLA for North Vancouver-Seymour", "agency_as_recorded": "Member(s) of the BC Legislative Assembly", "lar_id": "LAR-40876", "lar_number": "744-40876", "meeting_date": "2025-03-12", "month": "2025-03", "posted_date": "2025-04-08", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=40876", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "744", "client_org_name": "Canadian Federation of Independent Business", "client_business_description": "Founded in 1971, CFIB is a non-profit, non-partisan business organization which exists to promote and protect a system of free competitive enterprise, to strengthen the entrepreneurial culture in Canada and to give independent business a greater voice in determining the laws that govern business and the nation.

Immediate Funding for the Invasive Mussel Defence Program – $5.5 Million Investment The IMDP has been underfunded for years, and its effectiveness has been compromised by budget reductions and staffing shortages. The number of watercraft inspections has declined by 60% since 2019, despite an increasing threat from neighboring jurisdictions like Idaho. We urge the provincial government to allocate at least $5.5 million to the IMDP in 2025 to restore and expand inspections. 2. Mandatory Inspections for All Watercraft Entering B.C. Unlike Alberta, which is introducing mandatory watercraft inspections in 2026, B.C. currently only inspects boats that pass an open station, leaving significant gaps in coverage. We recommend amending the Wildlife Act and Water Sustainability Act to require mandatory inspections for all incoming watercraft. 3. Federal Support for Prevention, Not Just Detection Federal funding has been largely focused on mussel detection rather than prevention. As we have seen in Lake Winnipeg and are witnessing in Idaho’s Snake River, once mussels are detected, the infestation and damage is irreversible. We urge you to advocate for federal funding that prioritizes early prevention and border screening programs, as well as a moratorium on out-of-country watercraft given that the copper-based chemical treatments in Idaho’s Snake River were unsuccessful in eliminating quagga mussels but did kill between 6 and 7 tons of fish, including 48 white sturgeon. 4. A Western Canada Invasive Mussel-Free Zone The province should collaborate with Alberta and Saskatchewan to establish a regional invasive mussel prevention strategy, including shared policies, inspection stations, and penalties. Aligning with Alberta’s AIS Task Force recommendations will create a more effective defense against mussel contamination across Western Canada. 5. Aligning Penalties to Deter Non-Compliance Currently, B.C.’s fines for non-compliance with inspection programs are far lower than Alberta’s. We recommend increasing penalties to at least match Alberta’s $4,200 fine for failing to stop at an inspection station and implementing higher fines for larger, high-risk watercraft. 6. Clear Policy to Limit Chemical Use in “Rapid Response” Strategies While some jurisdictions propose chemical treatments as a last resort for invasive mussels like in the Snake River, history shows that these measures are often ineffective, costly, and harmful to other aquatic species, including salmon populations. The best strategy remains prevention through mandatory inspections and proactive funding. Public and Business Community Support This issue is not just an environmental concern—it is an economic imperative. In March 2024, the Okanagan Basin Water Board (OBWB) convened a multi-stakeholder working group of over 100 representatives, including local governments, First Nations, marinas, tourism associations, and chambers of commerce.

While we recognize and support the government’s goal of accelerating the approval and development of large-scale projects to increase economic output given the ongoing tariffs with the U.S. Administration, we are unable to support the legislation in its current form. Our concerns lie primarily in three areas: 1. Vague Language and Broad Discretion The current draft of Bill 15 contains unclear definitions and open-ended powers, particularly in the criteria used to designate a project as “provincially significant.” This lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent application and erodes public trust in land-use decision-making processes. More detail and accountability are needed to ensure the act is used for its intended purpose and not as a blanket override tool. 2. Erosion of Indigenous and Local Government Authority The Chamber is particularly concerned about provisions that would allow the provincial government to circumvent the rights of Indigenous communities and the authority of local governments in land-use planning. Reconciliation and strong local governance are cornerstones of sustainable and inclusive economic development. This bill, as currently written, undermines both. 3. Need for Parallel Red Tape Reduction While we agree that infrastructure projects must move forward more efficiently, we urge the province to tackle the root causes of permitting delays by reviewing and removing unnecessary red tape and administrative bottlenecks. Streamlining existing processes—not bypassing consultation and oversight—is a more balanced and sustainable approach. Considering these concerns, we recommend that Bill 15 be revised to include: • Clear definitions and constraints on when and how the Act may be invoked. • Strong protections for Indigenous rights and meaningful consultation requirements. • A collaborative framework that respects local land-use authority. • Parallel commitments to reduce regulatory and permitting inefficiencies. The business community in Penticton is aligned with the provincial vision of building stronger, more connected communities. However, this vision must be pursued in a way that maintains the integrity of democratic institutions, respects Indigenous sovereignty, and builds confidence through transparency and accountability.", "office_holders_on_report": "11", "sector": "Business & commerce", "sector_basis": "manual: chamber of commerce", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Tamara Davidson", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "personal", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Tamara Davidson", "title_as_recorded": "Minister of Environment and Parks", "agency_as_recorded": "Environment and Parks", "lar_id": "LAR-43248", "lar_number": "3284-43248", "meeting_date": "2025-05-26", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-12", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=43248", "registration_type": "In-house organization", "client_org_num": "3284", "client_org_name": "Wildsight", "client_business_description": "Wildsight works locally, regionally and globally to protect biodiversity and encourage sustainable communities in Canada’s Columbia and Rocky Mountain regions.", "lobbyists": "John Bergenske; Robyn Duncan; Simon Wiebe", "lobbyist_count": "3", "consulting_firm": "", "riding": "North Coast-Haida Gwaii", "designated_filer": "Robyn Duncan", "coalition_members": "", "arranged_meeting": "N", "subject_matters": "Conservation; Environment; Mining; Fisheries; Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation; Agriculture; Forestry; Tourism", "intended_outcomes": "BC-01; BC-02; BC-03; BC-04; BC-07", "topic_of_lobbying": "Reform of BC mining legislation and policy to increase environmental protections and public influence in decisions || Limit water pollution and enforce regulation (particularly focus on selenium in the Elk River, Lake Koocanusa) || Improve legislation and policies to recover and maintain healthy wildlife population", "office_holders_on_report": "3", "sector": "Environment & conservation", "sector_basis": "name keyword", "resource_industry": "N", "recreation_access_group": "N", "recreation_access_topic": "N", "recreation_access_terms": "", "sports_and_recreation_subject": "N", "access_reading": ""}, {"official": "Tamara Davidson", "party": "BC NDP", "attribution": "office_staff", "office_holder_as_recorded": "Taylor Snider", "title_as_recorded": "Senior Executive Assistant to the Deputy Minister", "agency_as_recorded": "Environment and Parks", "lar_id": "LAR-42936", "lar_number": "5961-42936", "meeting_date": "2025-05-27", "month": "2025-05", "posted_date": "2025-06-06", "record_source": "ORL open data export 2026-09-20", "registry_url": "https://www.lobbyistsregistrar.bc.ca/app/secure/orl/lrs/do/cmmLgPblcVw?comlogId=42936", "registration_type": "Consultant", "client_org_num": "5961", "client_org_name": "The Co-operators Group Limited", "client_business_description": "The Co-operators Group Limited (“Co-operators”) is a leading Canadian multi-line insurance and financial services co-operative.
