BC's largest nonpartisan people-powered network that helps people organize to reclaim power over our environment and democracy. three main campaigns: No Tankers, Beyond Coal and Ban Big Money.
We build a grassroots base of engaged citizens ready to take action outside of the existing political party system by building local teams made up of local people committed to each other and the place they live. Then they mobilize by channeling large-scale citizen action both online and offline. This might be an election, a leadership race, court case, regulatory review, etc. We look for tipping points: places where enough citizen pressure can rewrite a law, reverse a bad decision or convince a politician to take a stronger position.
