BC Mining Law Reform

As British Columbians, we value nature, fresh water and healthy ecosystems. If our laws are strong enough, they can protect our waters, ensure waste dumps do not pollute our communities and watersheds, and make sure companies pay to clean up their mess.

Founded in 2019, we are a network of over 30 local, provincial and national organizations from a wide range of sectors, including citizen and community groups, experts, academics, First Nations, and social justice and environmental organizations.

The network is not against mining, but it is against mining at any cost, or price. It is a not-for-profit, public interest initiative promoting efforts to manage and develop mineral resources in ways that protect and sustain the environment while enhancing the social, cultural, and economic well-being of affected communities and of all British Columbians. It collaborates with communities, organizations and governments that are committed to address the current regulatory gaps and oversight.
