    Do you know why those sexually assaulted prefer the term "sexual assault survivor" over "sexual assault victim"?Because not only do we have to survive being assaulted, but we have to deal with those who blame us, those who don't believe us, then accept we likely never get justice

    #SurreySouth i am so disappointed in you. This guy? Really? This is the guy you want representing you??? You know what he has said and how racist and vile he is. Why?? Why would you vote for this?? How is this OK with you? #bcpoli

    NO ONE is getting an abortion at 8.5 months because they want to. At 8.5 months, mothers are preparing to welcome their baby into the world. Not ONE person is changing their mind at 8.5 months and having an abortion.

    I'm literally shaking right now. As if victims of SA don't have enough stress going into court, now this guy wants to ensure the victim is retraumatized by recording everything? Get fucked, John. I rewrote a law before and I will do it again if it means stopping you. #bcpoli
    Rustad vows to ensure all court proceedings are recorded and made available online. #bcpoli

    BC Conservative voters! Why are you voting for a party that allows: -blatant racism -anti LGBTQ2SL+ -absurd conspiracy theories -anti science -and more At what point will you draw a line in the sand and say you morally can't vote for a party that supports the above? #bcpoli

    I'm glad Ryan Whitney is being canceled. But please, stop sharing that photo. Stop retweeting that guy. Hockey has a rape culture problem. How can anyone deny this now?

    A healthcare 🧵 I've been at VGH with my 4 year old since Thursday, and I really feel it necessary to address a few things about the state of our healthcare system. #bcpoli

    Raised Catholic here. No one has had the puberty talk with me. It just didn't happen. I vaguely remember cussing when I learned about periods through a health pamphlet. No sex or safety chat. Probably why my daughter was a surprise... when I was 36.

    When govs say they're building new hospitals, or extending maternity wards, or upgrading aging equipment, this is what we need. We don't need more healthcare cuts & we shouldn't be voting in people who have actively voted against spending more on healthcare or expanding services.

    The care my daughter has received since we arrived here has been nothing short of spectacular. From triage to emergency room to pediatrics, we have been shown compassion, understanding, and empathy.

    Our healthcare system is not perfect by any means, but we need to be drastically aware of the impact a BC Conservative government can have on our public system should they (God forbid) make it into power.

    TL;DR - You can't force people to work in healthcare, but those who do work in healthcare are angels. Healthcare cuts hurt us. Pineapple doesn't belong on pizza. #bcpoli

    Can we all just maybe agree that no matter who forms government in 9 days, the Ministry of Education will make mandatory at least one course on what "communism" actually is and what it isn't? I feel like a lotta y'all are super confused. #bcpoli

    The size of the hospitals cannot keep up with the size of our population. You can't force people to work in healthcare either. Healthcare workers get sick, get injured, go on holiday, take a day off, people burn out - all the same things you and I do at our jobs.
