Wow!
“$12.89 million raised. Zero seats won. The PPC isn’t a party, it’s a grift
Maxime Bernier’s PPC spends big, but mostly on itself. The numbers don’t lie.”

Behind the scenes footage of billionaire #RubyLiu signing an agreement to purchase up to 28 Hudson’s Bay and Saks store leases. The deal could reshape Canada’s retail landscape as Liu steps in just as Hudson’s Bay winds down amid mounting debt. #HudsonsBay #bcpoli #vanpoli
Liu, who already owns B.C. malls like Tsawwassen Mills, Mayfair, and Woodgrove Centre, plans to launch “a new modern department store.” Hudson’s Bay says she’s poised to acquire key leases in B.C., Alberta, and Ontario’s busiest shopping districts. #bcpoli #cdnpoli #hudsonsbay

Toronto may be worse, but don’t think there aren’t challenges for the real estate sector in Vancouver. Pre-sale requirements have to be met of course, but wow. I hope municipal and provincial leaders know how challenging it is out there for the sector. #bcpoli #vanpoli #vanre

If Randeep Sarai joins cabinet, expect him to help re-engage South Asian voters. Immigrant families have felt the sting of affordability and crime. The Conservatives tapped into that. Liberals didn’t lose their base—but they took a hit. Sarai could help rebuild. #cdnpoli 3/3
Jonathan Wilkinson — smart, capable, and someone I dealt with in the LNG sector — is still tied to the Trudeau era. The energy industry wants a new face. He could make cabinet, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t.

Kamloops.
Unlike the Stanley Park train which isn’t operating, the Burnaby Central Railway launched their 32nd season today. Also, congrats to the volunteers who keep the train running at Kamloops Wildlife Park. A busy day for them too! #bcpoli #vanpoli
The Stanley Park train isn’t running, but in Kamloops, the sun’s out, the BC Wildlife Park is packed with families — and guess what? The train’s chugging along just fine. #bcpoli #vanpoli
