BC businesses are the backbone of our growing economy. Our government is working to reduce permit approval times and standing up to defend job-creating BC businesses. Together, we’re building a BC where everyone can build a good life for themselves.

I am deeply saddened by the news that Grace has been diagnosed with cancer. She is an inspiration to me and to people right across BC. I know that her family, Rob, Eve and Asher will be wrapping her with love during this time.

We are all sending her strength and love during this time.

A significant victory in the Supreme Court on BC’s legal fight against opioid manufacturers.

Great part of the judgement:

“The opioid epidemic spanning our country is a stark example of a crisis which attracts this co-operation and comity.

BC deserves the same benefits as other provinces. We will fight for fair treatment and rather than focus on a two-month holiday, we’re gonna deliver a $1,000/household middle-class tax cut, that will benefit families every year on a permanent basis. Because people need significant relief.

Anyone who has lost a loved to the opioid crisis will tell you, no amount of money can bring them back or take away the pain. But we’re going to make big companies and bad actors face the consequences for the harm their products cause.

Trump’s tariffs would hurt Canadians and Americans alike.

Canadians must stand united. Ottawa must respond with strength.

We’ll never stop fighting for British Columbian families.

I have had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with former Premier John Horgan over the years. This profile story about his love of the Victoria Shamrocks was one of my favourites. #bcpoli

It’s an honor to be appointed BC Minister of Housing and Municipal Affairs.

Housing combined with Infrastructure.

We have made some progress on getting more affordable housing online but we have much more work to do🙏🏾

John Rustad’s decision to empower MLAs like Anna Kindy who have extreme and bigoted views shows he’s not focused on the priorities of British Columbians like connecting people with more family doctors.

Rustad’s B.C. Conservatives just aren’t working for everyday British Columbians.
