Time For A Diverse Lieutenant-Governor For BC As The Term Comes To An End For Janet Austin
It’s time for British Columbia to have a diverse Lieutenant-Governor as the current BC Janet Austin’s term comes to an end soon. As we all know, the late Iona Campagnolo blazed a trail as the first female lieutenant-governor in B.C., and now, as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is tasked with appointing a successor to Austin, it is crucial that he choose someone who embodies diversity and represents British Columbia. In a time where diversity and inclusivity are of utmost importance, the appointment of a new lieutenant-governor is an opportunity for the government to showcase our commitment to these values. We urge the Prime Minister to make a bold and forward-thinking decision when selecting the new lieutenant-governor. Let us not miss this opportunity to showcase the strength and beauty of our diverse province.

VICTORIA – It’s time for British Columbia to have a diverse Lieutenant-Governor as the current BC Janet Austin’s term comes to an end soon.
As we all know, the late Iona Campagnolo blazed a trail as the first female lieutenant-governor in B.C., and now, as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is tasked with appointing a successor to Austin, it is crucial that he choose someone who embodies diversity and represents British Columbia.
In a time where diversity and inclusivity are of utmost importance, the appointment of a new lieutenant-governor is an opportunity for the government to showcase our commitment to these values. The person chosen for this role must not only have a deep understanding of the complexities and challenges facing our province, but also be a strong advocate for inclusivity and representation.
It is imperative that the Prime Minister considers a wide range of candidates from diverse backgrounds and experiences. Whether it be someone from an underrepresented community, a person with a disability, or an individual who embodies the rich cultural tapestry of British Columbia, the new lieutenant-governor must be a true reflection of our province's diversity.
We urge the Prime Minister to make a bold and forward-thinking decision when selecting the new lieutenant-governor. Let us not miss this opportunity to showcase the strength and beauty of our diverse province.
