David Pearce
David R. Pearce BA (UBC:1965) MA (SFU:1969), MBA (Alberta:1974), CFA (1989) was born in Vancouver, raised in Chilliwack and is married with one son. David worked for nine years in investments. He was a faculty member at School of Business, Lakehead University, Thunder Bay, ON from 1976 to 1979; a lecturer at the Alberta School of Business (U of A) from 1991 to 2006; and he has been an instructor at University Canada West and Camosun College in Victoria since 2006. David's interests include languages, economics, history, finance and politics. He speaks Spanish and some German. David joined the Green Party of BC because he is convinced that two of the most harmful policy failures of the postwar period are urban sprawl and the failure to achieve the leisure society. The Green Party’s ideas are in sync with his, particularly the emphasis on the sustainable economy, the taxation of waste and the elimination of subsidies for many counterproductive activities. David also likes the party's commitment to social justice, the use of the market mechanism to achieve change and the fact that it is not beholden to the union movement or to the business sector.
