Cheers to all the fine folks who volunteered their Sunday afternoon for the fifth annual Rutland Community Fall Clean-up! Many hands make the garbage go away 🚮

Kelowna's transit policy changes have hit people on fixed & limited incomes hard. Doubled fares for multi-bus trips impact vulnerable residents who most depend on transit, and it's not fair to bus drivers facing agitated riders

Kudos to Silver Wadien for organizing this protest!

Spoke at Kelowna's Draw The Line rally where activists for climate justice, public transit in the Okanagan, wealth inequality, an end to Palestinian genocide, and more came together. Strength in numbers 🧡

Gave an oral presentation to the BC Special Committee on Democratic & Electoral Reform, made some sort of a case. Fingers crossed something meaningful comes of the testimonies gathered 🤞

Environmental stewardship was nowhere in this election, so when I got a Q about lumber tariffs at the Kelowna Chamber debate, this is where that answer had to go 🌲

At the rally on Skaha Lake, a moment with the man himself. The most genuine + empathetic guy in politics, a role model in kindness 🧡

Today is Earth Day, so here's a clip from last week's big debate on Canada's emitters and a simple economic argument for a just transition away from the fossil fuel economy: job stability

Burgers & Ballots up at UBCO was a great success, both burger and ballot shared the spotlight as promised on the tin. University students know what's up, and to everyone in the midst of final examining, you got this 🧡

A new challenger has entered the race here in Kelowna, Elections Canada will surely make an exception to allow Vida in as a late entry to the ballot 🐾☑️
