Today the Premier revealed his environmental platform: re-announcing a marine plan signed two years ago, a land target from 2023 and a data centre power cap that’s already in force. What he didn’t say, is that his own government admits B.C. will miss its climate targets.

If progressives want actual progressive party vs a #Corporatist #bcndpLiberal party? Vote #bcGreens Timid David Eby does a timid 2% tax on millionaires 1 billion for healthcare BC Greens 1 Time Tax on $50 mil + = $22.2B for childcare, transit housing bcgreens.ca/fair-share-a... #bcpoli
The BC Greens will: 
Introduce a one-time Fair Share tax on extreme wealth, beginning at 5% on net wealth above $50 million, 10% above $100 million, and 20% above $1 billion. This is estimated to raise approximately $22.2 billion after accounting for administrative costs and behavioural responses.
Establish an ongoing annual tax on extreme wealth, beginning 2% on net wealth above $50 million, 3% above $100 million, and 5% above $1 billion. This is estimated to generate approximately $5.4 billion each year.
Work with the federal government to close tax loopholes and strengthen enforcement against tax avoidance, so that very wealthy individuals cannot use complex financial arrangements to avoid paying their fair share.
With this proposal raising $22.2 billion in the first year, and $5.4 billion in subsequent years, British Columbians can benefit from universal childcare, free public transit and properly funded affordable housing, while also reducing provincial debt and the interest costs that come with it.
Please find the Fair Share Act policy brief below.

The fact that Geoff Meggs just told Gloria Macarenko on CBC that Emily Lowan of the BC Greens appeals to “upper class environmentalists” is a big indication of how worried the NDP are about the Greens. Nothing more. Lowan taking on billionaires doesn't seduce the fancy, Geoff. #bcpoli

BC is in climate hell. 🇨🇦 has surpassed 2.0°C w/ another 1.0°C added on before 2040. My community burned down in a firestorm in 2023. Lytton burned down in 2020 & 2021. Eby isn't a friend to the environment, nor the people. The subsidies he's given to foreign entities is staggering Vote Green.

Hot take #bcpoli edition If the Cons win this election it is not my fault for voting #BCGreens. It's the NDP's fault for calling a crazy early election and providing the extremists Cons with a shot at government. Eby could have taken two years to prove himself and allow the Cons to deradicalize.

While the Cons bring anti-gay advisors on board, the BC NDP are quick to condemn them. The same BC NDP that refused to ban conversion therapy, defunded the org that created SOGI, and ended pathways for trans healthcare. The queer community deserves material support, not just when it’s convenient.

We need to ban foreign ownership of BC farmland immediately. The super-billionaire heir to the Walmart fortune, Stan Kroenke, now controls over 13% of BC’s farmland - this is a threat to BC’s sovereignty, food security and farmers. Read the Tyee’s in-depth coverage on this issue.
A Tiny BC Farming Town's Fight Against Billionaire Speculators
A US company's pursuit of land near Dunster has reignited calls for stiffer foreign ownership rules.The purchase of dozens of farm properties by two U.S. billionaires has prompted a small B.C. community to call for restrictions on foreign ownership of agricultural land.
Since 2008, a company co-owned by American billionaires Bobby Patton Jr. and Mark Walter has bought 25 properties in Dunster, an unincorporated community of approximately 240 people located 40 minutes north of Valemount.Patton Jr. and Walter are co-owners of the Los Angeles Dodgers through their company
Guggenheim Baseball Management, and were estimated to have a combined net worth of more than $5 billion in 2020. By contrast, the average household income for those living in the Dunster area is about $60,000 per year.Unlike many other provinces, British Columbia has no restrictions on foreign ownership of agricultural land.

In 2024, BC Greens called on the BC NDP to ban the silencing of gender-based violence survivors. They said no. We tried passing a bill to ban conversion therapy. They said no — twice. We welcome this new pressure and hope the BC NDP will choose to protect vulnerable British Columbians this time.
