This morning I wrote to 17 Pride groups to say we’ll proceed with their request for a motion to support the Human Rights Code. Every MLA who supports the Code should vote to defend it. We need to stand up for human rights, not give ground to those who would take them away.

BC Gov was the first to announce that we’d appeal the decision of Cowichan Tribes v. AG Canada et al. We strongly disagree with the court’s treatment of private property, but even as this case continues, we know lasting solutions are found through dialogue & collaboration with First Nations partners

What the Cowichan decision really means, and how we move forward together

Niki Sharma and Spencer Chandra-Herbert: The fact is, you can respect Aboriginal title and protect private property.

Holy 💩. So the BC Cons' position on infrastructure projects is that they would cancel projects that are already underway, starting with the Pattullo Bridge replacement (which is almost complete!!). So basically: Cut everything. Cut bridges, transit, schools, hospitals, cancer centres. Ok. Noted.

It’s more important than ever that we stand up for workers in BC. Especially as we look at Trump’s threats of a 25% tariff. We’ve won some major battles to bring fairness to workers, but there’s much more to do. We must ensure every worker in BC can build a good life here.
