For years, some B.C.families who’ve lost loved ones in wrongful deaths have been calling for change — demanding the provincial government alter the laws that prevent them from seeking accountability.
As Paul Johnson reports, they’re still keeping up the pressure — despite no sign that their pleas will be answered anytime soon.
Our upcoming 2ND ANNUAL MOTHERS FOR JUSTICEÂ MEMORIAL WALKÂ will be held on Saturday, May 13th at 1PM.
We will have the surviving families of the wrongfully killed speak and then be led by bagpiper, Rich Nichol, to Premier Eby’s constituency office, where we will place upon his office window the photos of our wrongfully killed loved ones with roses laid beneath them.
Emilie Negahban lost her baby after a difficult delivery on February 4, in Vancouver. As former attorney general David Eby prepares to become premier of British Columbia, she calls for the modernization of the law called the Family Compensation Act.
Emilie Negahban’s son Nathaniel was alive for only eight hours before he died in his mother’s arms this past February.
But the first-time mother and her husband have been re-traumatized after learning their son’s body has been ready to be brought back home for eight weeks — and no one told them.

John Rustad and the Conservative Party of BC have committed to modernize if elected.
