    Let the person who has never done anything they regret in high school cast the first stone. Silence. Enough said. This federal election campaign is in the gutters and I am disgusted.

    Today I voted in advanced polls 4 the only party with a credible, costed, science-based plan to put Canada on the right trajectory to deal with the climate crisis & reclaim international leadership/moral high ground on climate change file. I voted @liberal_party #Elxn44 #cdnpoli

    Today I met with @JustinTrudeau in Richmond to discuss the @liberal_party climate plan. As I told him, “This is a plan that I’ve been dreaming of for most of my life.” It is economy wide, its all encompassing and it's costed and well thought through! #cdnpoli #Elxn44

    I find the views of the intolerant far right as offensive as the views of the intolerant far left. But this sort of commentary has no business coming from a university. I am profoundly troubled that a prof from @uvic , where I have been employed since 1992, posted this.

    Thrilled to see so many of my climate/ocean science colleagues in Canada stepping up to speak out in support of the @liberal_party climate plan. The climate crisis is front & centre in #elxn44. Only @JustinTrudeau has a plan that recognizes the scale of the crisis #cdnpoli

    While I can’t say I have historically been a fan of @fordnation, I have to say he is doing an incredible job on the COVID-19 file. He has shown strong, decisive and compassionate leadership at a critical moment in Ontario’s history. Thank you Premier Ford #onpoli #bcpoli

    We are so exceptionally fortunate in B.C. to have @adriandix and Dr. Bonnie Henry at the helm of our province’s COVID-19 response @bonniehenryfans . You are showing the world what leadership looks like. Thank you. #bcpoli 1/2

    The @liberal_party climate plan's pollution pricing, ban on thermal coal exports, methane reductions, ZEV policy, recognition of synergy between a strong, prosperous economy & a healthy, clean planet etc is the plan that I’ve been dreaming of for most of my life. #Elxn44 #cdnpoli
    Experts, like leading climate scientist @AJWVictoriaBC, have rated the Liberal climate plan as credible, ambitious, and concrete. Let's put that plan into action. #ForwardForEveryone

    Her Majesty might have a few things to say about what is or is not unprofessional attire. Thank you Grace for sending me this picture #bcpoli.

    I am thrilled to be working with John Horgan and the @bcndp so that BC can have a stable minority government for four years. #bcpoli
    A few mins ago, I joined @AJWVictoriaBC to announce an agreement between our parties. Thank you to all the voters who made this possible.

    .@GretaThunberg deserves serious consideration for the Nobel Peace Price. In the history of communication of importance of curbing GHG emissions, there has never been a more articulate & effective spokesperson. The attacks by some "men" are reprehensible
