Advocacy Updates - As at August 2017

The Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce grassroots policy-building process is key to our success as Langleys premier business voice.

Our 975+ members have the opportunity to participate on our committees and thorough our committees, in the policy process.  Why should you participate or engage in the policy process? Well for starters, Policy is Sexy! That’s right, it is sexy and exciting, and anyone who has been through the process of drafting, debating, editing, debating, defending, perhaps debating one more time and then finally passing a policy, understands the meaning. 

We have been very busy with our policy work over the past few months, specifically at the provincial level, authoring or supporting 8 successful policies. (See links below) The Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce’s policy building process, coupled with our advocacy efforts, has provided us with an outstanding track record of policy results. 

This is not work we do alone, we engage members, other business associations, government, other local Chambers of Commerce and we utilize our memberships with both the BC Chamber and the Canadian Chamber, to ensure that our policies have an impact on the Greater Langley Business Community.

If you have any questions regarding these policies or any of our other advocacy work please contact Colleen Clark, Executive Director at 604-371-3770 or colleen@langleychamber.com
