A New Future for British Columbia
British Columbia is at a crossroads. For too long, politics has been dominated by the same old voices, the same tired solutions, and the same broken systems that leave everyday people struggling. The BC Renewal Party was founded by real people — workers, parents, small business owners — who are ready to do more than talk about change.
ABOUT US!
Leadership. Experience. Values.
The BC Renewal Party was founded by everyday people who are tired of waiting for the system to fix itself. We believe BC can be bold again — not by clinging to old ideologies, but by investing in real solutions that help people live, work, and thrive.
Our founder, Tristan Tolley, is a 25-year-old entrepreneur and caregiver who stepped up to raise his siblings after losing his father to cancer. He knows what it means to struggle — and to fight for something better.
We’re not politicians. We’re builders. Workers. Parents. Small business owners. And we’re creating a movement to renew British Columbia — for all of us.
Why We’re Running
We didn’t start the BC Renewal Party to win a title or sit in an office. We started it because we love this province — and we’re tired of watching it slip away from the people who built it.
For too long, politics in British Columbia has been about protecting the status quo, not protecting people. Housing costs have pushed families out of their own communities. Healthcare waitlists have left loved ones in pain and uncertainty. Wages haven’t kept up with the cost of living. And young people are being told to lower their expectations instead of being given the tools to succeed.
We’re running because we believe BC can be bold again — and because change will only come when everyday people step forward. Our founder, a 25-year-old entrepreneur and caregiver, knows what it means to face hardship and keep fighting. That’s the spirit we’re bringing to this movement.
We’re not here to play politics. We’re here to build solutions that work. Solutions that make BC a place where you can afford to live, work, raise a family, and dream big again.
This is more than a campaign.
It’s a commitment to renewal — for our economy, our communities, and our future.
Our Vision
What We Stand For
💸
A BC Dividend
A $500 monthly BC Dividend for every resident — because economic freedom starts with financial stability.
🏡
Affordable Housing & Tax Reform
A land value tax on unimproved land value to replace inefficient property taxes, end speculation, and boost housing supply — promoting affordability, rewarding productivity, and building a prosperous BC for all families.
🏞️
BCFundMe: Empowering Communities with Transparent, Participatory Funding
A province-wide digital platform that transforms how we fund local projects, fostering transparency, community participation, and efficient use of public resources.
⚛️
Clean Energy for a New Era
Modern nuclear energy to reduce emissions, lower costs, and ensure BC’s energy independence.
🎓
Opportunity for All
Accessible education, support for trades, and startup funding for the next generation. Early trades/apprenticeships. Real education reform for the 21st century.
🧩
Disability Supplement – Fair Funding for Families with Autism and/or Significant Disabilities
6,000 per year for every child diagnosed with autism or significant disability. Paid directly to parents with no repeated assessments, severity tiers, or bureaucratic hurdles.
🏥
Healthcare That Works
Faster access to doctors, cancer care, and mental health supports — because we’ve seen the system fail and refuse to accept it.
🌲
Smart Sovereignty & Wealth Fund
Responsible resource use, a BC Sovereign Wealth Fund and independence from broken provincial and federal systems that steals from rather than empower the next generation.
👨👩👦
Childcare Policy: Empowering Parents with Real Choice
A monthly Childcare Benefit paid directly to parents in addition to the BC Dividend -- no waitlists, no bureaucracy, and no government deciding where your child goes. Parents can use it for daycare, nannies, family care, co-ops, or staying home.
Meet Our Founder
Why I Stepped Up
I never planned to start a political party. I run a private swim lessons business. I raise my younger brothers. I lost my dad to cancer.
But I looked around and saw a province where young people can’t afford to live, work, or dream. And I realized: if we don’t step up, no one will.
The BC Renewal Party isn’t about power — it’s about possibility. This movement is for every person who’s been overlooked, overtaxed, or underestimated.
It’s for the families, innovators, workers, youth, and future-builders who deserve better. Let’s build a BC that takes care of its people — and gives them the freedom to grow.
— Tristan Tolley,
Founder of the BC Renewal Party
