After nine years of NDP government, British Columbians are still facing growing pressure on our health-care system and too many people are waiting too long for care. ❌ 323,000 people are registered on the Health Connect Registry ❌ Emergency departments continue to face temporary closures and disruptions ❌ Specialist waitlists have reached unprecedented levels, with waits increasing by 10% in just one year ( British Columbians deserve timely access to the care they need when they need it. It’s time for a serious change in how we deliver health care in B.C.

Today in Langley, alongside our Leader Lorne Doekerson and my colleagues Misty and Harman, we announced our plan to support BC’s wineries, breweries and distilleries. Removing the PST on BC wine, beer and spirits will help lower costs for British Columbians, strengthen our local economy, and support the thousands of good jobs that depend on this industry. Our wineries, breweries and distilleries support more than 20,000 jobs in communities across BC. At a time when our local producers are facing serious challenges, we need to stand up for them not let international trade pressures and tariffs put these businesses and jobs at risk. This is also about affordability. After years of rising costs, British Columbians deserve some relief at the till. When you choose BC made wine, beer or spirits, you’re supporting local jobs, local businesses and keeping more of your hard-earned money here at home. These are serious times, and they call for strong leadership. Lower prices for British Columbians. More support for BC businesses. More jobs in our communities. That’s what backing BC looks like

I’m asking for your support to continue serving as your MLA for Langley–Willowbrook. I’m ready to keep working hard for our community and fighting for what matters most affordability for families, a strong economy, safer communities, and better health care. If you believe in our community and the work ahead, please consider chipping in today. Every contribution helps us reach more people and keep this campaign moving forward. Let’s get to work. Together, we can take back B.C. conservativebc.ca/candidate/…

25 years ago today, I was 17 years old, alone in an airport in London, England. I will never forget the feeling of that day. I was thousands of miles away from home, surrounded by people who were just as frightened and confused. Flights were grounded. The world had suddenly changed. I didn’t know when I would be able to get home to Canada. I had no money. No credit card. No phone. I remember making a collect call home just to hear my family’s voices and tell them, “I’m safe, but I don’t know when I’ll be home.” I was only 17. I remember feeling scared, helpless and completely alone. I didn’t fully understand the magnitude of what was happening, but I understood that something had changed forever. That fear has stayed with me for 25 years. Last month, 25 years later, I returned to New York and stood on the grounds of the 9/11 Memorial & Museum but this time, I wasn’t alone. I was there with my husband, my two daughters and other members of our family. As we stood together, each of us remembered where we were that morning, what we were doing, and how we first heard the news. We shared those memories with one another, remembering a day that changed the world forever. Seeing the names. Walking through the memorial. Being surrounded by reminders of the lives that were taken and the families that were changed forever. It made me think about that 17-year-old girl sitting alone in an airport, desperately wanting to get home to her family. And it reminded me how quickly life can change. Today, we remember the nearly 3,000 innocent people who never made it home. We remember the first responders who ran toward danger while others were running away. We remember the families who waited for loved ones who never came home. And we remember everyone whose lives were forever changed that day. 25 years later, I still remember how it felt to be far from home, afraid and uncertain of what tomorrow would bring. Some memories never fade. Some moments become part of who you are. September 11, 2001. We remember the lives lost. We honour the heroes. We hold their families in our hearts. And we will never forget. 🕊️🇨🇦🇺🇸
