Second Annual Legislature Day - 2019

CHBA BC held its second annual Legislature Day in Victoria this week! We had 32 CHBA BC members and staff from all eight local associations participate.

On Sunday, Nov. 24, we held a training day to learn more about the legislature and CHBA BC’s policy work. On Monday, our members held 21 different meetings with Cabinet Ministers and MLAs, meeting with almost 75% of the provincial legislature – to achieve affordable, available and professionally built homes. The evening reception on Monday evening was packed with MLAs and staff. The evening featured speeches by Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing Selina Robinson, and Liberal Opposition Leader Andrew Wilkinson.

CHBA BC CEO Neil Moody, CHBA BC President Brian Charlton and Government Relations Committee Chair Matt McCurrach had the honour of meeting with Premier Horgan and Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing Selina Robinson to discuss collaborative efforts to achieve greater housing affordability and see to more homes being built across the province.

Thank you to all members that took the time to participate in this successful second Legislature Day. An additional thank you to the CHBA BC government relations committee and chair Matt McCurrach for their hard work that helped to make this event a big success!
