I'd like to thank our many project partners for coming together on such a diverse new building. I look forward to seeing the doors open on these new homes so Indigenous families, elders & individuals can stay close to their community where their families & friends surround them.

Our hearts are with the people, communities and First Nations adversely affected by #BCWildfire. It was a devastating evening fighting fires and working to protect people and homes, with extremely difficult and rapidly evolving conditions continuing today.   (1/6)

If you don’t need to travel to any wildfire affected area - please don’t. With thousands of people evacuated in the Okanagan, this travel order will help make sure we have accommodation for evacuees and emergency personnel who need it.

I was honoured to announce the launch of Vancouver Coastal Health’s first ever DTES Youth Outreach Centre alongside Ravi Kahlon & Joan Phillip. We toured this new space & met the staff on the DTES Youth Outreach team who are set to make a big difference in the lives of youth in the community.

With the language being used to slam our BC Government on the lack of housing, it's extremely disappointing that some MLAs are more committed to leaving work at 6:30pm than they are to working to solve this issue. People are counting on us, we need to do better.

The Transit-Oriented Development Area changes will not overrule heritage status in places like Chinatown. Heritage designation can be provided under the Heritage Conservation Act, as a National Historic Site federally, or through the Local Government Act and zoning bylaw

So glad to attend with my friend and colleague Brenda Bailey! Keeping affordable homes available in the communities that need them is so important. I'm glad to work with so many passionate and committed folks to creating more affordable housing.

Nearly 2,000 affordable homes are coming for people in Metro Vancouver! 🙌🏾 An expansion to our Community Housing Fund means we’re building even more homes that folks can actually afford. 🏡 Stay tuned, there’s more to come across BC later this week.   👉🏾 news.gov.bc.ca/30507

Everyone has a right to freedom of speech but scaring or intimidating kids while they’re learning at schools should be, and soon will be, illegal. (1/4)

Kids deserve to feel safe and supported, but especially at school. This legislation will help to ensure that kids remain safe from harassment, intimidation, and are able to focus on learning. A round of applause to Niki Sharma, Rachna Singh, and David Eby!

GC Phillip “Dallas Brodie is a complete disgrace to traditional Parliamentary values of respect for democracy, human dignity and equality. Shame on Rustad and the BCCP for not sanctioning Brodie's hateful crusade against Residential School victims, survivors and families"#bcpoli

***CW: Residential Schools Today I rose to speak about the Residential Schools and the misinformation that is being spread by members of this House. Racism should never be a partisan issue. Full Video: youtube.com/watch?v=t1lQYJ…

Shocked & heartbroken to hear of the lives lost & those injured at the Lapu Lapu festival. Police are investigating & a suspect is in custody. We are in contact with the City of Vancouver and will provide any support needed. My thoughts are with the victims and their loved ones.

This is just wrong. The Infrastructure Projects Act is about reducing redundancies (not standards) on critical infrastructure projects like schools and hospitals — projects Rustad failed to invest in when he was in government — so that they can be built faster for communities.

Tara Armstrong and Jordan Kealy have fully backed Dallas Brodie's anti-Indigenous racism. They've spread hate against trans people. They've aggressively attacked BC Conservative MLAs. After all that, John Rustad just said he'd consider welcoming them back. Watch:

Today’s verdict will be difficult for many, especially survivors of sexual violence. Our message to survivors remains unchanged – you deserve to be supported and believed. Seeking support, sharing your story, and asking for justice takes immense courage.../
