2009 Provincial Election Campaign
During the 2009 provincial election, BCRPA worked to bring public and political awareness to the pressing need to invest in BC’s rapidly aging community recreation infrastructure.

This work included outreach to politicians and political candidates by BCRPA Chief Executive Officer, Suzanne Allard Strutt and the creation and submission of an editorial piece to news outlets around the province, with coverage received in the Vancouver Sun as well as various community newspapers. BCRPA members supported these efforts by engaging in letter writing campaigns to colleagues and local government.

The BCRPA is continuing its advocacy work around this important issue and encourages you to join us in our efforts to turn a pressing need into a public policy priority. Information on the Infrastructure Renewal Campaign can be found here.
