From improving supports for survivors of sexual violence, strengthening protections against non‑consensual image sharing, securing federal bail reforms to address repeat offending, and modernizing family law, our government is building a justice system that serves everyone in BC.

BC is taking action to promote economic growth while bolstering sovereignty and sustainability with a new competitive process for clean power in high demand sectors. Responsible AI and data centre development means protecting affordability for all British Columbians.

For #DataPrivacyWeek, I encourage all British Columbians to review rules and guidelines that protect their personal information here in B.C. In this digital day and age, it is more important than ever to remember that privacy isn’t abstract, it’s personal.

What’s happening on the streets of Surrey is a terror attack in slow motion.

Extortion was a top priority for our work with the Prime Minister and Premiers across Canada.

We must do everything possible to keep our streets safe and get violent extortionists out of our communities.

9 years ago, worshippers gathered at the Islamic Cultural Centre of Québec when their evening prayers were violently interrupted by a horrific act of Islamophobia. 6 men were killed and several more were injured when a gunman shattered their sense of safety and sanctuary.

There is a lot of misinformation around DRIPA being spread by others for their own political gain. Instead of stoking fears & dividing people, our government is focused on unlocking new opportunities by working with First Nations communities & industry partners through the framework of DRIPA.

The Holocaust stands as one of humanity’s most profound moral failures. On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we confront that truth with humility, sorrow and resolve. ‘Never again’ cannot be a passive promise; it must be an active commitment to confront hatred.

Today, we remember the more than six million Jews murdered during the Holocaust, and the millions of others murdered by the Nazi regime. As survivors grow fewer, our responsibility to remember and our resolve to act grows stronger. (1/3)

Mental health and substance-use crises are health issues, but they can quickly become public safety emergencies.

That’s why we’re working in partnership with police, health-care providers, and community partners to expand HealthIM on South Vancouver Island.

Glad to support PSSG Minister @ninakrieger.bsky.social and local MLA colleagues in the launch of HealthIM on the South Island, a tool used in collaboration with law enforcement and clinicians to share information in real time about someone in crisis.

Had the chance to join CKNW this morning to talk about B.C.’s top public safety priority: combatting extortion.

We’re investing $600,000 to expand the Provincial Forensic Firearms Lab so police can move evidence faster and hold violent offenders accountable.
