The BC Wrongful Death Law Society to NDP MLA Mitzi Dean:
“I’m writing to you today to formally introduce our organization to you, and secondly to inform you of a massive inequity in both our current and upcoming proposed legislation that we felt pertinent to bring to your attention.”
By the NDP government introducing no-fault motor vehicle insurance legislation that does not provide compensation for damages related to pain & suffering, or access to justice, it forces the victim to remain in a state of distress associated with their injury and trauma.
No-fault motor vehicle insurance legislation will be disastrous for ensuring victim rights and access to justice for the citizens of the province. We have sent a letter to the Attorney General’s office advising both on the history of ICBC and alternative measures that would allow us to solely focus on root cause prevention of accidents in the first place.
A B.C. coroner’s report on the 2016 death of a young woman who fell out the door of a moving party bus recommends the creation of a tracking system to ensure commercial vehicles comply with safety inspection orders.
Join us on Wednesday November 20, 2019 to help commemorate the National Day of Remembrance for Road Crash Victims.
RoadPeace, the instigators of this day of remembrance, had a lofty goal: “A day of respect by and towards all road users; a day on which exceptional care is taken by motorists; a day of courtesy at the wheel and a day when all road laws are respected so that a world day without any crashes resulting in injury or death will become a reality.”
2024 Election – David Eby & the BC NDP have failed to keep their promise to modernize BC’s wrongful death laws within their 2020-2024 mandate of government.
John Rustad and the Conservative Party of BC have committed to modernize if elected.
