Budget 2025 is out — and includes investments in housing, clean energy, and community infrastructure. Plus, a milestone we've been working toward: support for a Youth Climate Corps.

Proud to see this work reflected in the federal budget.

A strong subtext from my conversation with MP Will Greaves was just how much financial strain the system is under. And like it or not, nothing pays the bills (health care, education, etc) like fossil fuel revenue.

Mark Carney's "Climate Competitiveness Strategy" didn't get much love at first sight.
But there are good things in it.
Spoke to a few supporters, including MP @wgreaves.bsky.social, who pushed hard to make sure a youth climate corps is part of the strategy.

A #Budget2025 update. The budget was tabled yesterday in the House of Commons — and includes important things like funding for Royal Athletic Park and a Youth Climate Corps, among many other good things. What are your thoughts on the budget?

Six months on the job and still no teleportation between Ottawa and Victoria — but we’re working on it.

From Mayor Alto on the Hill to smart justice reform at home, and big equality investments ahead of Budget 2025 — it’s been a week!

When everyone thrives, Canada grows stronger.
 
Budget 2025 delivers over $660 million to advance gender equality, support 2SLGBTQI+ communities, and fight against gender-based violence.
 
Today’s announcement is really exciting for Victoria, BC, and the whole country.

Six months ago, the people of Victoria put their trust in me to be their voice in Ottawa.

I'll never forget the honour of rising in the House of Commons to deliver my inaugural speech — a reminder of why I ran, and who I serve. Thank you, Victoria. We're just getting started.

We began the Weekly Wrap in Ottawa — then, Thursday night, Donald Trump ended trade talks with Canada (again).

Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"

From global security to local solutions in The Weekly Wrap.

This week I spoke about B.C.‘s role in Canada’s Arctic and Indo-Pacific strategies — and met with groups to protect the coast and support sustainable jobs.

Plus, funding for local arts and health orgs. 🙌

We remember with sorrow and compassion the victims of the October 7 attacks, including the eight Canadians murdered.

We remember their lives and stand with Jewish Canadians against hate.

May we find a path forward rooted in humanity and peace.
