We put forth Freedom of Information Act requests to the Ministry of Attorney General, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Finance, and the Office of the Premier in 2023. Finally, after nearly 3 years, and 2 Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner complaints we have now obtained the final set of heavily redacted records as of June 12, 2026. Things are bleak – the BC NDP failed to modernize BC’s wrongful death laws as promised within their last mandate of government – the records speak to these promises that were broken in documented format.
The parents of toddler Ocean have learned that their daughter’s life is worth less than a car. Each parent gets $14,918 for the death of child from ICBC. They cannot sue the insurer in this province.
But other provinces have the different rules and a group that wants to change B.C. laws is hoping high profile cases will help change the law.
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.
You are cordially invited to attend the 2nd Annual Mothers for Justice Memorial Walk on May 13th, 2023, 1PM PST at McBride Park, 3350 West 4th Avenue, Vancouver, British Columbia.
