We need to be a province that enables young women to take on leadership roles without fear of sexism. British Columbians deserve better from their political leaders.

- I think you misunderstand. Americans got high quality goods, services, and energy for that money. It's called "buying", and it's a common activity between trade partners.Replying to @BowinnMaWhy can't Canadians understand that the WHOLE ISSUE is that we have been giving Canada 200 BILLION dollars a year and getting NOTHING back. Not even free trade. Nothing. Not even border security. Nothing. Canda is a BURDEN on the United States. Canda is a TAX on every U.S.
- With everything that's been going on, I've felt very strongly the need to say something about #AntiAsianRacism during #COVID19 ...so here I am saying it. #bcpoli #BryanAdams #HateIsAVirus
00:00 - Dear [many senders of emails], I get that requiring proof of vaccination isn't ideal, but I frankly really struggle to take your complaint seriously when you equate the horrific treatment of Jewish people during the Holocaust to not being able to drink at a bar with your friends.
- No one is trying to take away your rights. We are asking you to care about someone other than yourself. #StayHomeProtest to end the lockdown happening now in Vancouver #endthelockdown
00:00 - Meet little Azalea, born 7 lbs 3 oz on November 15, 2023 at 09:01 by the amazing team at Lions Gate Hospital. Delivered on time and on budget. ❤️
- Squee!! I met Dr. Bonnie Henry in person for the first time ever this morning! Must have been fate: I ended up in the same elevator as her after the first elevator I tried screamed at me to get off. 😄 P.S. She is as delightful in person as she is on screen. 🥰
- Cyclists do the rest of us a favour when they choose to commute by bike. It's not too much to ask in return that we drive carefully. Always shoulder check, pass safely, look before opening your door. Helmets aren't a force field & the lack thereof doesn't excuse us as drivers.
- I cannot imagine being Dr. Bonnie Henry right now. The weight of our province's response to a global pandemic is on her shoulders and she also has to deal w misogynistic attacks, threats of violence, crowds chanting "lock her up". You can disagree w someone without any of that.
- Wow! You make that all by yourself from your perch in WestVan? 🎨 While you were off getting rich from your global mining escapades, I was here serving people in NorthVan and supporting communities facing climate disasters with a baby strapped to my back. But u do u, Big Man.Under @BowinnMa and the NDP, the housing crisis has worsened, traffic remains a mess, hospital wait times are up, and taxes are rising. North Vancouver-Lonsdale deserves better leadership. The NDP has failed. It’s time for change. #NDPmustGo #NorthVancouver #bcpoli
- Humbled to have been appointed Minister of State for Infrastructure by Premier @jjhorgan today. It continues to be an incredible honour to serve the people of British Columbia.
- I feel like the #BrownFaceTrudeau incident has taught me more about @theJagmeetSingh than @JustinTrudeau. I didn't really learn anything new about Trudeau, but it's really showing me what kind of person Jagmeet is... and my respect for him is growing.Tonight is not about the Prime Minister. It's about every young person mocked for the colour of their skin. The child who had their turban ripped off their head. And those reliving intense feelings of pain & hurt from past experiences of racism. To you, I say you are loved.
- The PPC pulling almost 250% the vote share of the Green Party is the most alarming outcome of #Elxn44 so far.
