Frustrated w/ CBC discussing our #vote, TALK ABOUT THE #GREENS ! In #BCpoli Greens are relevant, they've got things to offer that the people here want! Cons do NOT offering anything to anybody, all they do is naysay. Eby's NDP is not offering much. Except to corporations. youtu.be/z4KVWwSs4Ck?...

No one should have to choose between paying rent and putting food on the table — that’s why the BC Greens are focused on fighting the cost of living crisis. Believe in better. Join the BC Greens: bcgreens.ca

Right now, workers in the federal public service can lose their pension entitlements due to a disability, even if that disability is caused by a recognized work-related injury. If you think those workers deserve fair treatment, sign this petition.

Policymakers aren't keeping up with data. The "Institute and Faculty of Actuaries" publications suggests 2040 we will hit 2c and 2050 be in hot water (Or, hot weather? lolsob) Would love for my PM @mark-carney.bsky.social to be making policy based on scientific reality. youtu.be/e2paRMQ1k6k?...

The report also offers a menu of policy solutions to help counter the wealth concentration trend and steer the course towards a more equitable society. (4/4) Read the report or bookmark for later at: bcpolicy.ca/tax-the-rich And share far and wide! 🔃 thx, all.

We actually do have a lot of options when it comes to green energy expansion and shifting our agricultural methods. I think we ought to do less heel dragging on the matter.

We've been playing chicken with keeping a livable climate. We are gonna get hurt, we waited too long, but if we jump off oil now we might survive the hit. The way forward is in partnership of citizens of many nations with survival as the goal. Corporations must be regulated or they will ruin us.

Perspective check: not all deficits are created equal. In 2009, Harper ran a $17 billion quarterly deficit. In 2025, it’s $3.3 billion, in a tougher global economy. Tell me again how conservatives are better at anything 🙄
Side-by-side comparison showing two men in formal suits. The left side, labeled “Q1 2025,” shows Mark Carney smiling slightly with the text “$3.3 billion deficit.” The right side, labeled “Q1 2009,” shows Stephen Harper looking serious with the text “$17 billion deficit.” The image contrasts the size of Canada’s federal deficits in those periods.

Completely frivolous: Connections used the wrong Four. Sorry, but words that go with 4 the number should not mix with OVEN. The word 'Four' means 'oven' in French. Petit Four is tiny baking or literally small oven. You can make a pun, but that doesn't "connect" to the others, Connections! Ahrg!

As Ontario burns, forest fire pilots are paid the second-lowest wages in Canada—while Doug Ford funds corporate handouts and vacations. CBC tells these stories. That’s why they want it gone. Defend facts. Defend public broadcasting. #SaveTheCBC #CdnPoli #DougFord #MediaMatters

Poilievre declaring war on the CBC would be the modern version of defunding and going to war against Mr. Dressup, The Friendly Giant, The Beachcombers and Hockey Night In Canada. We need MORE Canadian heritage preserved. Not less. #cdnpoli #elxn45 #cdnmedia #elbowsup

Thunder stealing. David Eby said he was 'pondering' this and suddenly its "oh, you're skipping rope? Well, jump cause I said so!" No credit Mr Con, as you aren't the man who sought Daylight from the start. We should do this, but it should be made clear it's a nonpartisan issue.
