I thought the PM did very well in this spotlight meeting in front of cameras. He stood his ground, respectfully, but strongly to take on specific lies. I'm proud of him in his performance today. He was the only one who looked as a head of state. #cdnpoli #uspoli

STORY: Every election, we hear from people confused about who they are voting for and what the candidates can and can't do. Sometimes parties stoke this confusion. So we are breaking out a few stories on what, exactly, is at stake next week. Today: Government 101.

Good question, asked the same thing in X! Is this an allowed use of Legislative letterhead? To campaign for a federal candidate?

Anybody else think it's weird to sign your name on provincial legislature leaderhead if you're not a member? Is the legislature supporting/ endorsing federal candidates now? 🤔 @jasjohal.bsky.social @jmcelroy.bsky.social @keithbaldrey.bsky.social @cbcstephenquinn.bsky.social

Great story from Jason Proctor.

FOI documents reveal BC’s former energy minister was told last September that at least 7 large-scale hydrogen projects were being cancelled or paused because of issues including electricity supply, high cost and transportation. #bcpoli

Should BC MLAs get a pay increase to $119,533 salaries on April 1?
It's supposed to be automatic 'cost of living' increase — but with a gov hiring freeze, internal cost cutting, a record $11b deficit + tariff uncertainty, BC NDP have put MLA pay on agenda for snap meeting Fri.

Watching the federal polls adjusting due to Carney entering the arena, makes me ponder if this had happened last year what would have happened with BCCons, my guess, not much! I predict BC United would have went on to win government‼️
