“VYP and BCYP have been great learning experiences for me regarding the Parliamentary process and traditions.”
— Leo Xu | Leader of the Opposition, 33rd VYP
Youth Parliament is the intersection of diplomatic debate and selfless service. Just as much as Youth Parliament is service-oriented debate, my experience at the 33rd Vancouver Youth Parliament was filled with laughter and meeting new people!
— Skyler Chan | Premier, 34th VYP
Joining the VYP was a very valuable experience for me because I not only broadened my knowledge about parliamentary procedures and strengthened public speaking skills but also made many new friends with diverse backgrounds and passions. My interest in politics, something I initially imagined to be dull and uninteresting, grew after attending the 33rd VYP and now I’m serving as the Leader of the Opposition. I strongly recommend applying to VYP to anyone who’s interested in politics or simple wants to try something new and exciting.
