Stories

The families who have shared their stories know that they will not benefit from a new law. Yet, they are campaigning for wrongful death law reform in BC. Hear them explain why.

(Please note: Our volunteer team is currently working through a large backlog of family stories to get them ready for publishing. This page will be updated regularly.)

Each story features a BC family that was denied access to a trial because their loved one was not a breadwinner.

These families did not get the answers they deserved. No compensation was available for their loss—no support for counselling, time off work, or resources to move on. The injustice of the wrongful death continues to cause suffering.

IN THEIR NAME urges the provincial government to adopt a wrongful death act that truly respects the needs of all British Columbians.
