🚹We need an urgent reset to end the crisis at Kelowna General Hospital. I was on Global Okanagan again last night, calling for new leadership to get Interior Health back on track. 🚹We’re all sounding the alarm, but Health Minister Josie Osborne 🇹🇩 isn’t listening. #bcpoli

Let me get this straight— NDP & Eby have billions to waste on Clean BC, but won’t invest in thousands of BC jobs and billions of dollars of investment here in BC!? BC’s own Seaspan makes it clear that if they had cooperation from the NDP, they would proudly build our BC ferries!

BC unions gut punch BC NDP govt on BC Ferries decision to build ships in China. BC Federation of Labour calls it “short-sighted choice [that] will send hundreds of millions of dollars out of our province, profiting a brutal authoritarian regime instead of enriching local communities.”

The NDP talks a big game about supporting workers but when it comes time to act, they send our jobs to China. Let’s build BC with BC workers!

David Eby and Mike Farnworth pretend that the BC Ferries contract with the PRC was an independent decision made by B.C. Ferries alone. Does anyone believe that a Board made up of former NDP cabinet Minister Joy MacPhail, former NDP transportation Minister Claire Travena and NDP

Big trouble in NDP ranks over their B.C. Ferries oversight and decisions: “The B.C. New Democratic Party rebuked its own leader and government over the weekend for allowing the taxpayer-owned BC Ferries corporation to contract out construction of its ships to the Chinese

Youth unemployment nearing 17%..This isn’t a canary in the coal mine for our economic future - It’s an albatross. 👇 “If we want to grow the economy and if we want to keep young people in the province, we need a more deliberate focus on private sector job creation.”

Private sector union workers have already been migrating to Conservative Party of BC in droves. Will this shakeup finally realign the traditional relationship between the NDP and the BC Federation of Labour? #bcpoli

Keanin Loomis slams BC’s reliance on Chinese steel. Local firms are shut out, transparency is gone, and jobs vanished—like Supreme Steel after the Pattullo bid. Delays prove the lowest bid isn’t the best. TEMU steel’s poor quality forces costly inspections. Have a listen:

Busy day in #CityofPG starting with the PG Chamber of Commerce Leadership Breakfast. As a former Prince George Chamber President, I have to admit it was pretty cool speaking to an audience of friends in a new capacity as a local MLA. Thanks to the Chamber for championing our small

We crashed Premier Eby’s press conference today and he came by to say hello to our executive. We appreciated the visit but we’re deeply disappointed in his decision to allow our ferries to be built overseas. B.C. workers deserve better. Unions deserve a seat at the table. #bcpoli

Glad you met with the BCFMWU Premier but workers still deserve answers on your Government’s choices. As the union has already stated: “British Columbians have been clear: they want ferries built here, by Canadian workers, not by authoritarian regimes with records of human

I believe the “Party Crashers” over “Drop-in Dave” in this story. đŸ§đŸ€·â€â™‚ïž Workers are right to be ticked off with the NDP
 British Columbians don’t want political spin, they want results.

Can we trust the BC NDP’s procurement decisions when it comes to our bridges, our ferries, and our critical infrastructure? When I worked in the Transmission Pipeline sector, there were expressed decisions NOT to purchase Chinese manufactured pipe. Their steel-making process

This is shocking.. surely this little girl and her family deserve better? 😱 With all of the wasteful spending in our healthcare system and across government, there should be funding that can be found for a case like this one.

I’ve been in regular contact with Charleigh’s mother, Jori, through this ordeal. As a father, I cannot imagine what it’s like to receive life-altering news with less than 24 hours’ notice—after weeks of silence. Healthcare defines morality - but the treatment of this family is
