Ryan Marciniw moved to B.C. 23 years ago, from Winnipeg. He soon met his life partner, Winnie, shortly after moving to Vancouver, and they have been together ever since.
The couple rescued their dog Macy May from the mean streets of Taiwan about five years ago, and plan to rescue more dogs after they find a larger home. Marciniw has a BA in political science from UBC and attended Langara College his first two years. He is currently working for Yellow Pages in the billing and finance department and has volunteered for the BC Green Party since December 2014 as the assistant chair of policy and research committee, conducting online forums, developing member-driven policy and researching and writing about policy.
He has volunteered on his strata corporation as treasurer.
Marciniw has studied the issues that face B.C. and has a good understanding of the policies and positions the government needs to follow to help guide the transition from a resource economy to a sustainable, clean energy economy.
