Oct 1, 2024 | 2:01 AM

VICTORIA — The B.C. Green Party is expected to be the first to roll out its complete election platform today.

Leader Sonia Furstenau is scheduled to hold a news conference in Victoria this morning.

The Greens have already laid out a number of their commitments, including promises to establish a network of 93 community health centres, cover six visits per year with a mental health professional under the provincial medical services plan, and maintain a carbon tax while increasing the size of the rebate.

As part of the second week of the election campaign, all three major party leaders are expected to come face-to-face for multiple events on Wednesday.
