Very few British Columbians know that children, the elderly and many disabled people
are considered “worthless” if killed by someone else’s wrongdoing in BC.

Change begins with public awareness.

The BC Wrongful Death Law Reform Society is a BC registered non-profit society
comprised of 100% volunteers. We need your help to make this meaningful legislative reform in our province possible.

Our campaign depends on the voices of British Columbians.
