We are pleased to announce that Jed Wiebe of Salmon Arm has been accepted as our BC Green Party candidate for the riding of Salmon Arm-Shuswap. To kick off his candidacy we plan to hold several “Meet Your Candidate” events throughout the riding.
Our first candidate meet and greet event will be held on Saturday September 7, at 5:00 pm on the patio at the Marionette Winery, located at 2540 40th Street NE in Salmon Arm. The evening will start with Jed introducing himself to attendees and then the evening will continue with Marionette’s regular Sangria Saturday, with live local music and mouth-watering Portuguese BBQ being served up by Chefe Daniel. All this on the patio at the Marionette Winery where you can enjoy a glass of local wine surrounded by the picturesque backdrop of the vineyard.
We look forward to seeing you there!
If you wish to hold a candidate meet and greet in your neighbourhood, please contact us and we will be happy to help you set it up. You can reach us at [Jed’s Green Party email address].

Protecting your health
BC Greens recognize that airborne illnesses and pollutants pose a significant health risk to everyone, especially the young, elderly, and immunocompromised, while caregivers, healthcare professionals, and support staff come into regular contact with vulnerable persons. When choosing venues, BC Greens prioritize outdoor spaces, and indoor spaces with good ventilation. In closed indoor spaces, we encourage attendees to wear well-fitting masks (N95, KN95, or KF94), especially during the respiratory-illness season.
Creating safe spaces
The BC Green Party is committed to providing an environment free of discrimination and harassment, where all individuals are treated with respect and dignity, can contribute fully and have equal speaking opportunities. To support this commitment, all event attendees will be expected to follow the standards of our Safe Spaces Participant's Guide.
