Another great night at the Harmony Arts Festival @harmonyartswv . Great band March Hare had everyone up on their feet. My daughter enjoyed trying on clothes from our fabulous local designers. All topped off by a harvest moon. Festival continues to August 10!

We had a productive—and surprisingly well-organized—strategic planning session today. Big ideas, bold goals, & even legible handwriting (a rare feat!).
Grateful for the energy, insights, and commitment in the room as we shape CentreBC’s path forward. @centrebc.bsky.social

Happy 4th of July! Just because our parents are fighting doesn't mean that we can't still appreciate all of our American friends and family.🥳

Had a wonderful night celebrating the amazing volunteers, donors, endorsers and all those who supported me on my election campaign. I am so unbelievably proud of the campaign we ran and grateful to everyone who was a part of it.

Today, I’m calling on Kevin Falcon to formally step down as BC United leader so that the party can fully pay off its debts and start the process of rebuilding British Columbia’s centrist party.

Heeding the advice of others not to eat the entire can of the US Betty Crocker icing with a spoon, I baked a bunch of things for it to go on! Not sure there are less calories with this approach. 🤔

In support of ‘buy Canadian’, I am ridding our kitchen of US products. I am eating this entire can of Betty Crocker vanilla icing in support of Canada!
