Reckless and shocking comments from David Eby. It’s no wonder so many are suffering and dying from addiction. We call on David Eby to immediately apologize for these horrific comments. We cannot have another 4 years of radical BC NDP leadership. #bcpoli

I have worked with John since 2013 when we were both ministers. He is very kindhearted, hardworking, committed, capable and passionate. He cares so much about British Columbians that he has devoted 100% to his political mission. It’s my honour to work with our next Premier.

@jjhorgan ⁩ must take immediate steps to ensure that cruise ships will stop over in Vancouver, Victoria and Prince Rupert when Covid-19 is no longer a threat to British Columbians.

David Eby & @henryyaomla are quick to say whatever they need to please whoever they're talking to. Richmondites have been clear with their disappointment. Time & time again, the NDP have shown us that they're not to be trusted on their promise to listen to communities. #bcpoli

While the B.C. gov has taken some steps to help fight the rise of racism in our province, much more needs to be done. I have written a letter to Premier @jjhorgan and Attorney Gen. @Dave_Eby outlining 10 actions for the NDP government to take. #bcpoli

This awful & disgusting act of hatred is unacceptable in British Columbia. It's a reminder of the much work we need to do in the ongoing fight against homophobia, racism and all other forms of hate. #bcpoli @BCLiberalCaucus Love will always win. I stand with this brave couple.

@toddstonebc This sudden change with no advance notice is really unfair to the restaurant industry.

Heartbroken to hear about the horrific attack that took four lives of a Muslim family yesterday in London Ontario. These targeted attacks against racial or religious groups go against everything we stand for as Canadians and must be stopped.

New legislation has been introduced by US Senator @lisamurkowski again that would allow cruise ships >1000 passengers to circumvent BC ports going to Alaska. @jjhorgan , do you still have "bigger issues to deal with" or will you finally take action to protect BC tourism? #bcpoli

I’m proud to introduce new legislation to provide a permanent exemption from the Passenger Vessel Services Act for cruises transporting passengers to Alaska from any U.S. port. This legislation is good news for Alaskans whose livelihood relies on tourism.

🧵 The government's announcement of a racism incident reporting hotline is a positive step toward a more inclusive B.C, but let's not forget the journey to get here. (1/5) #bcpoli

NEW - BC is opening a racist incident helpline, through 2-1-1. The province first promised this two years ago. The government is also offering $10k grants to community organizations to repair damages from hate, for security equipment, graffiti removal, etc.
