BC has the highest poverty rate in Canada and no plan to tackle it directly. A poverty reduction plan is a comprehensive and effective strategy that addresses the root causes of poverty. BC is one of the last provinces left without a poverty reduction plan. Help join the coalition to bring poverty in B.C to an end! For more information please visit http://bcpovertyreduction.ca/

The way the poor in B.C. are treated is disgusting. Im am on permanent disability due to a brain injury caused by surgery. My month disability pension is $906 which is impossible to survive on. Alberta recipients receive nearly twice that amount and the cost of living is cheaper there than it is here would be better off in prison than I am on disablity.
