Disability Alliance BC was saddened to hear of the passing of former B.C. Premier John Horgan from cancer earlier this week. Mr. Horgan was a strong supporter of the disability community and DABC during his time as both Leader of the Official Opposition and Premier. Many of our organization’s advocacy initiatives, programs and services benefited as a result of his leadership in government. He was a true friend of DABC, as well as the community we serve!

We send our deepest condolences to his wife Ellie, their two sons and everyone in the province who has been touched by this remarkable individual during his decades of public service.

Sincerely,

The DABC Board of Directors:
Julia Lamb, Jake Anthony, Liss Cairns, Pam Horton, Sarah Cheung, Odette
Dempsey-Caputo, Alyssa Vincent, Elizabeth Lalonde and Sarina Mawji.
