So sorry to hear of the early passing of John Horgan 鈥e was a dedicated British Columbian who wanted to improve life for all of us. He gave many years of his life in public service, right to the end. He will be missed. #bcpoli

Personal news: after working for @BCUnitedCaucus for 6 1/2 years, I鈥檓 leaving to pursue another opportunity. In opposition we often don鈥檛 get to speak positively about why we鈥檙e here so I thought I鈥檇 take some time to write a retrospective 馃У. 1/9 #bcpoli

Frankly sir, you鈥檝e proved over the past year to be an irritating NDP sycophant, a bully and an asshole. #bcpoli

For British Columbian families dealing with fertility issues, IVF can make all the difference. But it can be expensive and out of reach for many. The BC Liberals are committed to providing funding to help make IVF accessible to everyone. #bcpoli

BC Liberal Leader @KevinFalcon arrives at the @BCLegislature with his family ahead of being sworn in as the MLA for Vancouver-Quilchena and Leader of the Official Opposition. #BCpoli

I want to thank the people of Vancouver-Quilchena for placing their trust in me today. We're taking the first step towards restoring leadership and competence back to the province of British Columbia. #BCpoli

Under the NDP BC's doctor shortage is spiraling out of control. 1 in 5 British Columbians can't find a family doctor and clinic wait times are out of control. It's time to tackle the big issues like health care with leadership that gets results - not excuses. #bcpoli

Right. The 5 years the NDP has been in power utterly failing on this file is the fault of a guy who doesn鈥檛 even have a seat in the legislature yet. 馃檮

Sheila Malcolmson & Jeanette Ashe, who is running against @KevinFalcon in Vancouver-Quilchena, holding a presser now to slam BC Liberal leader for cuts made to mental health & addiction services while he was in govt. "To be blunt Kevin Falcon doesn鈥檛 care about people in crisis."

Today, @jjhorgan lied about BC's poor pediatric vaccination rate, was called out on the lie, tried to claim that it didn't matter because BC isn't seeing "a lot of outbreaks" in K-12 (or that if it is, they're "mild"), and then told kids to wear a mask if they're uncomfortable.

I am excited to begin this byelection campaign. I will work hard every day to earn the support of Vancouver-Quilchena residents so that I can hold the @bcndp to account and bring needed leadership and competence back to the province of British Columbia.

The secret ballot is a fundamental right that workers in B.C. have enjoyed for 30 of the past 38 years. To see the NDP table a bill that strips that right from workers when it comes to union certification is unacceptable. Choosing NDP donors over workers' rights is unforgivable.
NEW - The BC Government has introduced legislation to establish one step union certification. This create a card check system and reduces ability for employees to intimidate employees out of joining a union. #bcpoli

I'm calling on the NDP to immediately pull Russian spirits from @bcliquorstores and cease all imports of such products by the BCLDB.
We should do all we can to support the people of Ukraine and not benefit Putin鈥檚 regime while this unprovoked aggression continues. #BCpoli

Happy #IWD to every bossy, loud, quiet, aggressive, shy, exhausted, entrepreneurial, entry-level, serious, absent-minded & everything-in-between woman out there. This day is for all of us. Hire us, pay us, acknowledge us & make room when we pull our chairs up to the table.

New Democrats say unfair to ask them for relief from gas prices when Putin's fault. My guess people paying $2 plus per litre don't care about blame. They can't get at Putin so pressuring Horgan, who has repeatedly promised action on high gasoline prices.

So it鈥檚 been 250 days since @Lytton burned to the ground @jjhorgan You promised to have their back. Residents still have no access, no debris removal, no clear building process. It is appalling! Shame on you! #bcpoli @BradleyVis

Ukraine needs our province to step up and actively demonstrate to Mr. Putin that we will help reduce dependency on Russian energy and replace it with alternatives including BC鈥檚 own ethical, clean LNG. It鈥檚 time for the government of BC to act!!!

Alberta is consulting global experts including the czar of the Portugal Model. It鈥檚 not a bad idea to expose ourselves to new ideas - what we are doing in BC is quite obviously failing. We could actually learn a lot from a province that gives a f*ck about this file. #bcpoli
