Join The Movement
The Conservatives will tell you they’ll restore Canada’s promise, the Liberals will tell you that’s an imagined past, then promise to build things on a scale not seen in a generation. Both draw on nostalgia for a better time, when working people could provide for themselves and their families.
-
That wasn’t built by any politician, it was built by working people who had organized enough power that the establishment had no choice but to respond. Over the last four decades, that power was clawed back, the labour movement eroded, the crown corporations that kept the commanding heights of our economy accountable to Canadians were sold off.
-
That power will not be handed back, it has to be demanded. But for the first time in forty years, New Democrats are fighting to reshape the balance of power in this country, to put the power back in the hands of working people.
What We're Fighting For
Family-Supporting Jobs For All
For far too long, working families across Mission—Matsqui have been denied the wages, benefits, and dignity we've earned by elites that squeeze us for every dollar they can: over the last forty years, the cost of living has increased four times faster than wages...
Breaking Up The Monopolies
From seeds to fertilizer, to tractors and tillers, to food processing and the shelves it all ends up on, to your bank account, your medicine, your phone plan, corporations have concentrated control of nearly every stage of production, nearly every aspect of your life...
No More Handouts
To The Elites
While working Canadian families in Mission—Matsqui struggle to afford groceries, keep up with rent and mortgages, and access healthcare, Ottawa has been handing out billions to elites that don't need it, fossil fuel giants that gouge us at the pump...
Make You An Owner, Not A Renter
There was a time when a working Canadian could buy a home on a single income, raise a family in it, and pass it on. That time is gone, not because we lack the land, labour, or lumber to build, but because government after government handed our housing market to elites...
What Do You Need Ottawa to Hear?
Year after year, decade after decade, working families are finding it harder and harder to get by as wages stagnate and the cost of living soars. And while you struggle to put food on the table and keep a roof over your head, your hard-earned tax dollars are being doled out to the very corporations ripping you off.
-
There's a consensus in Ottawa, held by both parties, government after government, that working people ought not have a say over our own lives, our own communities, our own futures. You've been failed by the parties who serve corporations, not you.
-
We can have an MP and a party that answers to us, not them. We're ready to make your voice heard in Ottawa. What do you need them to hear?
Fund The Fight
Every dollar you give goes directly into organizing across Mission—Matsqui: knocking on doors, signing up members, and fighting to put power back in the hands of working people.
-
We're not funded by wealthy donors or corporate lobbyists. We're funded by working people who know things can be different. If you believe that too, then fund the fight!
Mission—Matsqui
Youth Wing
Across Mission—Matsqui, young workers, young farmers, young families are being squeezed by the corporations that've consolidated and concentrated control of our economy.
-
Yet, rather than break them up, government after government, Liberal and Conservative alike, have doled out your hard-earned tax dollars to the very corporations ripping you off. And it is young people who are paying the price. If you're tired of it...
UFV New
Democrats
For decades, public colleges and universities like UFV have been denied the funding they need to keep their doors open, forcing them to find other ways to keep themselves afloat. Last year, cuts to the International Student Program handed the University a $20 million deficit and resulted in the cutting of 45 faculty members.
-
The federal government is refusing to fund public universities, denying you the chance to even pay the already far too high tuition and administrative fees. Do you want to do something about it? Then make your voice heard and...
