Every dollar spent on climate preparedness saves $13 in disaster related costs. British Columbians just saw $531M less in LNG royalties than promised from the BC NDP’s budget, and $614M more than expected on wildfires. Why should our tax dollars keep propping up LNG?

For the past 2 days, Premier Eby has been at a fire sale of Canadian assets — YVR is on the menu. YVR belongs to the public. Letting US investors dictate its future is a recipe for high prices, less accountability for passenger safety, and pressure on workers. Will Eby stand up to privatization?

This is what fighting the oligarchs to fund our future looks like in practice.💪 The Tyee spoke with BC Green MLA Rob Botterrell on the "disturbing" lack of clarity on public information surrounding oil & gas royalties. Read excerpts below and check out the full article: shorturl.at/X1pr5
BC Changed a Law to Keep Gas Royalties Secret
'Improved confidentiality' for oil companies leaves the public without previously available payment data.

BC natural gas operators pay royalties to the provincial government. But the public can no longer find out how much each company pays.The provincial government has decided that British Columbians are not entitled to know how much fossil fuel companies pay in royalties for the publicly owned oil and gas they extract from the ground.
The province had previously released the information in response to two formal freedom of information requests. But less than a year after making those disclosures, the NDP government changed the law so that company-specific royalty payments would be shielded from public view.The province says it made the change to
"improve confidentiality" for Shell, ARC, Petronas, Ovintiv and a handful of other companies operating in B.C.'s fossil-fuel-rich
Peace River region.
Those companies have dramatically increased drilling of methane gas and condensate in recent years, with much of the gas destined for a massive liquefaction and export facility in Kitimat and much of the condensate heading to Alberta, where the province's heavy oil producers use it to dilute their product and pipe it to refineries in the southern United States or to the Port of Vancouver for loading onto ocean tankers.But as drilling has ramped up, royalty revenues have plummeted by hundreds of millions of dollars, leading to questions about whether the public is getting a fair return for its resources. It was also recently revealed that the government badly overestimated the royalty revenues the public will receive from the oil and gas industry, leading to further criticism of Premier David Eby and the NDP.

BC Greens hold grief and demand change on
International
Overdose
Awareness DayThis is a day of profound grief.
In 2026 alone, nearly 800 British Columbians have lost their lives because of overdoses.
British Columbians have lost parents, friends, neighbours, siblings, and children.As we grieve, we must continue to challenge the conditions that have led to this preventable harm.
Deaths from toxic drugs are not inevitable, but the results of policy choices.Lives can, and must be saved by those who have the power to change these policies.
How we honour those who have died is measured by how we treat those we can still keep safe.
