Protecting the things that people value in New Westminster-Coquitlam

Jennifer Whiteside has dedicated her career to fighting for the rights of working people. She has fought for better public healthcare and making sure people are treated fairly -- including leading BC’s first living wage campaign.

A former labour leader and community advocate, Whiteside was elected as the MLA for New Westminster in October 2020, and re-elected in 2024. She is the Minister of Labour and previously served as the Minister of Mental Health and Addictions and Minister of Education and Child Care. She was born and raised in New Westminster.

Where the BC Conservatives would roll over for Trump, Jennifer Whiteside, David Eby and the BC NDP have a plan to stand up for British Columbia, protect the services that families need, and build the homes and good jobs we need for a stronger province.
