Also, David Eby lived in a three-bedroom rental apartment subsidized by the University of British Columbia around 2019, while serving as Attorney General.
A September 2019 Vancouver Sun profile describes his home as a three-bedroom rental apartment on the UBC campus, where he lived with his wife Cailey Lynch, a 2018 UBC medical graduate.
Imagine campaigning on “taxing the rich” only for ppl to discover Eby’s household income is north of $500k & he’s taking up a spot in the $10/day daycare program. Punt him out of office. #ChampagneSocialist

It seems Premier David Eby cannot stop thinking about me.
Since our party chose me as leader, he has wasted no time taking shots, as he labels me extreme. The truth is clear: it is his NDP that has governed with dangerous extremism, driving British Columbia deep into debt, letting crime spiral out of control, and undermining the property rights that families rely upon.
I stand for lower taxes, safer communities, respect for families, and economic opportunity through our resources. Those are not radical ideas. They are the responsible path forward.
British Columbians are tired of failure. Together, we will restore hope and prosperity to our beautiful province.

Outrageous BBC bias too! @BBCNews have NEVER reported ASA decision against Stove Industry Alliance. They are complicit in creating this outrageous pollution with their endless promotion of wood burning.

How can we make plans @MetroVancouver when you’re not actively and consistently enforcing the #airquality bylaws where the #wildfire #smoke meets the restaurant #woodsmoke, plumes of #chemically-laden emissions, all in a heat island of #urban concrete? @LisaDominato, #JulieSaxton
WTF🤬😡😡😡😡
BREAKING: Mark Carney’s Liberals just voted to stop federal lawyers from defending private property rights in B.C.
They refused to put the property rights of people first.

A poll done by Defra found that when questioned, over two thirds of log burner owners had no concerns that their pollution was harming their neighbours' health. Personally with my experience I would put this ratio significantly higher. Almost all of them couldn't care less.

Step 1: Remove David Eby and the NDP from office.
Step 2: Repeal DRIPA and UNDRIP
Until that happens, BC is uninvestable.

"Literature review" written by Amanda Lea-Langton, director of Clear Skies Mark, a stove industry lobby group, conveniently forgetting to mention the health impacts on neighbours & the wider community, who get the brunt of the pollution. Only the selfish polluters are considered

Ancestry test to see if you can go into a public park.

Access to public lands should never be determined based on ancestry, ethnicity, race or any other immutable characteristic.
We are all Canadians.
Policies like this divide rather than unite us together as one.

More importantly...
Is YOUR wood burner damaging your neighbours' health?
The answer without any doubt is YES.
Consider this...
The huge amount of carcinogenic gases and particulates leaving your chimney will be breathed in by those downwind of your house. Don't they matter?

A growing body of evidence suggests that wood burners could be bad for our health.
