Episode Details

Saanich council just approved youth-driven transit and E&N rail priorities — a major win for young residents — but the formal youth advisory council is on hold until after the October 17th civic election. Frustrated teens like 18-year-old Gus Kirby, part of an unofficial but active youth group, argue their voices should be heard now, especially on issues like affordable transit and reconciliation. Despite the delay, this grassroots group has already surveyed hundreds of students and pushed for fare-free transit under 18 and support for the Reconciliation Corridor. Officials recognize the value of youth input on shaping the future — even if the formal seat at the table isn’t guaranteed yet.
