Christopher will put students first. He will support hiring more counsellors and support staff, restoring and expanding the specialized programs the VSB has cut, strengthening school food programs, and ensuring students with the greatest needs receive the resources they deserve. Public education funding belongs in classrooms, not the bureaucracy.

Christopher will stand unapologetically with the workers who keep our schools running. From education assistants to custodial staff, every worker serving Vancouver’s students deserves a living wage and the dignity of being able to afford to live in the city they support. No one working full-time in our district should struggle to get by.

Christopher believes childcare is essential public infrastructure. He will champion low-cost, accessible childcare by unlocking school land and partnering with communities to expand spaces where families need them most. Every family deserves affordable care, and every child deserves a strong start.
