What’s the answer? Elect your @BCGreens candidate and ensure neither of the other parties gets a blank cheque for four years.

BC Greens will work across party lines where there is common ground, and there is almost no common ground between a Green and Conservative platform. The NDP and Conservative platforms, on the other hand…

This is such a clear and obvious lie. Supporting a budget is supporting a government and as @SoniaFurstenau said yesterday, “The Conservatives are not ready to govern.”
During my 6th and final debate, I asked the Green canditate if her and Sonia Furstneau would support a Conservative budget. She said she is open to working with every party. There will only be one budget. Do you want a Conservative budget or a BCNDP budget? #bcpoli @bcndp

While the Irish @greenparty_ie backtrack on LNG, @SoniaFurstenau & @BCGreens show us what a principled Green Party looks like—committed to ending LNG expansion & fossil fuel subsidies, all while prioritizing people’s health & well-being. @EamonRyan @rodericogorman @RoisinGarvey

I want to thank Mitzi for her years of dedicated service and wish her and her family well. Esquimalt-Colwood voters have seen candidate instability, but I've remained steadfast. I have been running a strong, growing campaign in ESC the last 6 months. @TeamCurrieESC #bcpoli
NEW - Just 11 days after telling me she was running for re-election in Esquimalt-Colwood, NDP cabinet minister @MitziDeanBC has reversed her decision and is retiring for personal reasons. There's no United candidate here anymore, and no Conservative candidate either. Greens

Not *all* politicians. Some of us recognize winner take all systems are anti-democratic, reducing voter turn-out. #fairvote #PRNow @CanadianGreens
Politicians love first-past-the-post because it means they can appeal to a minority of voters and still win a majority.

If you're on Vancouver Island, have a look at @timescolonist today. It's covered in a wraparound ad from the @Bcgreens countering the open disinformation from the LNG industry - and the BC NDP - that LNG (fracked methane) is "green." Enough greenwashing. #bcpoli #bcwildfires
I'm enjoying the front page of the TC this morning... finally someone said something to the gas industry about burning and mining fossil fuels, and how they are trying to mislead the public about "natural" methane being "a part of a sustainable future"

#yyj Why on our blazing Earth has our Victoria MP @Laurel_BC voted with the Conservatives against carbon pricing?
"They’re jumping on the easy bandwagon of false attacks on carbon pricing," remarked Deputy Leader @j_pedneault

The Greens are criticizing the NDP for supporting the Conservative call for a carbon price summit, as @theJagmeetSingh appears to be signalling his party position is getting less keen about the consumer levy than it has been in the past.
