The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
3rd Session
42nd Parliament
A
Remember
her
Peace
River
North
thanks
honorable
speaker
today
on
the
International
Day
for
the
eradication
of
poverty.
We
reflect
on
the
progress
that
we
have
made
as
a
total
entire
Community
to
end
poverty.
We
must
also
acknowledge
the
significant
amount
of
work
that
remains
to
be
done
to
improve
the
well-being
of
all
people
in
British
Columbia.
This
year's
theme
is
dignity
for
all.
A
The
silent
and
sustained
violence
of
poverty
is
a
result
of
decisions
and
inaction
that
disempower
the
poorest
and
most
marginalized
in
our
societies,
and
and
violate
their
fundamental
rights.
Such
harms
increase
social
exclusion
and
structural
discrimination,
which
are
just
a
few
ways
that
make
it
harder
for
people
to
escape
poverty.
