I am adding a link to a @globalnews from 2017 where the BCNDP promised $10 per day child care if they were elected. Well, they were elected. First to sign on to the child care funding agreement with the Federal Government. and can't seem to manage the program.

Happy 4th of July! Just because our parents are fighting doesn't mean that we can't still appreciate all of our American friends and family.

I have spoken to non-profit housing providers who say their staff are often not safe, yet are expected to manage some difficult and dangerous situations. These housing providers and their staff are people and organizations that want to help and do good work - but there is a.

What a brilliant idea. If only someone had thought of this earlier. Politics needs to move to the centre. @VoteCentreBC There are a few people who were around a certain table on August 28th, 2024 now having buyer's remorse.

I echo @IanPatonDelta's concerns. The BC Energy Regulator is now granted the power to authorize non-farm use of Crown land within Agricultural Land Reserves for renewable energy projects, effectively bypassing the Agricultural Land Commission's usual oversight. This will reduce.

The NDP pushed through Bill 14 this week, impacting farmland, farmers, and ranchers. 🆘 Farmland can be used for infrastructure projects without having to go through the ALC! .🌾 The Energy Regulator can make decisions over the Agricultural Land Commission .🥬 NDP can bypass ALC

I am glad to see the Premier taking a broader approach to trade. BUT I'd like to remind us that, in 2019, it was the NDP that shut down 13 BC trade offices across Asia—including 4 in China—cutting our direct ties to key markets. Now the @bcndp claim they want to strengthen Asian.

Today marks the last day of the spring session in the BC Legislature—a session defined more by division and dysfunction than by progress or accountability. Both the NDP and the BC Conservatives seem more focused on scoring political points than solving real problems. British.

My heart goes out to the families affected by the tragic accident in West Vancouver this afternoon. The loss of a child is unimaginable, and my deepest condolences are with them. Praying for the recovery of the mother who was seriously injured. 💔.
