While I’m in #VictoriaBC, my Constituency Advisors, along with staff from MLAs @georgechow.bsky.social, @joanphillipndp.bsky.social, @nikisharma.bsky.social, @terryyungyvr.bsky.social & @adriandix.bsky.social attended tonight’s gathering in remembrance.
May we find comfort in each other's presence.
Today in the house a transphobic question was asked. I was extremely disappointed by the question and the disregard for the harm and danger this languages causes
To the 2sLGBTQIA+ community, our government sees you and stands with you
Hate should have no place in the Leg and it has no place in BC.
When you’re sick, the last thing you should have to do is go to your doctor to get a piece of paper saying you’re sick. That's why we're amending the Employment Standards Act to remove the need for sick notes for short-term illnesses. #bcpoli #bchealthcare
***CW: Residential Schools
Today I rose to speak about the Residential Schools and the misinformation that is being spread by members of this House.

I'm glad to see @ubcic.bsky.social calling our BC MLA Dallas Brodie's residential school denialism for what it is: anti-Indigenous racism and hate: www.ubcic.bc.ca/ubcic_reject...
I support Premier Eby's statement
I hope to see more people speak up for survivors and ask John Rustad to take action.
Our families, friends, and loved ones deserve better.
After all the trauma residential school survivors have been through, they are being revictimized by the BC Conservatives mocking their stories. I know that not every BC Conservative MLA agrees, and am thankful of those who have voiced their concerns already.
And more action needs to be taken.
