Honoured to attend the Zonta Club of Nanaimo’s International Women’s Day Luncheon and present a certificate of acknowledgement for their work uplifting women and girls in our community.

Thank you for helping build a stronger, more equitable future.

It’s past time for change in Ontario. And we need your help now to deliver that change.

It starts in our east end, with a provincial Liberal nomination in Scarborough Southwest.

Here’s how it will work and how you can help:

PM Mark Carney video calling Team Canada's women's speed skating team to congratulate them on their gold medal win.

He’s such a nice man with a great sense of humor. He shows them his trophy he won for lawn bowling! 🀣🀣🀣

Tumbler Ridge is a small planned resource community, a winding 90 minute drive from the nearest city of at least 10,000 people.

A massive number of people are going to descend there tomorrow.

May those that arrive have respect and grace for the unimaginable grief.

Screenshot of a Discord conversation in dark mode.

In the first message, a woman from the Chicago suburbs introduces herself as a social services supervisor and children’s book author. She says she is travelling solo, enjoys history, art, food, bookstores, and thrifting, and prefers gentle walking over strenuous hikes. She asks to be β€œadopted” during her visit to BC.

In the reply below, a couple from Nanaimo offers to host her. They describe themselves as artists, with backgrounds in tech and education, share her interest in thrifting and lighter activities, and suggest visiting a local bookstore, having lunch, and exploring vintage shops together.

Should any Federal party leader opt out of a critical national security screening that all others have undergone?

The BC Prosperity Project and the Politics of Grievance Every few years in Canadian politics, a familiar cycle returns.

Like children, if the game is not going the way they want it have a tantrum - take the toys and go home.

If you want all the Alberta separatist sh*t to stop you have to sign & promote the UCP MLA recalls
It could make this nightmare stop
The UCP have 47 seats
44 seats make a majority
If we can recall 3 seats we take away Smith's majority
That takes away the rubber stamp on all this madness
