Good. Whoever approved the first question should be a bit embarrassed.

B.C. Conservatives call for review of 2024 election, claiming 'irregularities' in voting | CBC News The B.C. Conservative Party is calling for an independent review of the 2024 election after it says it found a number of "irregularities" in voting last fall.

This just shows how little the @bcconservatives.bsky.social know about the #CommunityLiving sector. Sorry it was a close election @johnrustad4bc.bsky.social, but your job is to oppose government, not its institutions.

BC Liberal MLA: LGBTQ Anti-Bullying Program Could Cause ‘Mental Health Issues’ for School Children BC Liberal MLA Laurie Throness warns SOGI 123 anti-bullying initiative encourages ‘self-harm’, compares gender to a plant

The guy who doesn’t understand SOGI (or does, and doesn’t care), doesn’t believe in publicly funded child care, and who wants a huge sculpture of hands built out of a mountain (for tour buses to park in.)

Congratulations to the Ginga Ninja, Matt Campbell, North American Champion and into the second round in the #PDC Darts World Championships.

I’m very sad to hear that my friend and former MLA colleague Dan Coulter has passed away. He was loved by those who knew him. Condolences to his family and loved ones.

They deserve each other.

Rustad’s leadership skills in evidence already.

BC NDP director Dan Coulter suffers 'serious' medical emergency Dan Coulter, newly appointed provincial director for the BC NDP, has suffered from a "serious medical emergency" and is in hospital.

The whole NDP family is thinking of him and his loved ones at this challenging time.

35 years ago a man killed 14 women at l’école polytechnique in #Montreal including Geneviève, a former schoolmate. Their loss is immeasurable, and the grief of their families and friends, including my sister, remains. The work to end violence against women belongs to all of us.

I was sad to hear that former #Gibsons mayor Barry Janyk passed away. He was friendly and well-loved. Condolences to Jane, his family and friends.

Wishing the wonderful @gracealore.bsky.social all the strength she needs for this fight against cancer. There is a lot of love for her in her community and around the province.

They’re an amazing organization.

Don’t forget looking for witches.

In 1964, the shíshálh Nation gave people living in the Sechelt region an enduring gift: land for the Sechelt/shíshálh Hospital. Last week, people gathered to mark 60 years of service with a beautiful blanket collaboratively woven by artist Jessica Silvey alongside hospital staff, nurses & doctors. 🙏🏼

The Christmas tree for Boston is a beautiful Nova Scotia tradition that began when immediate assistance was provided to Halifax after the explosion in 1917.

Here’s another picture of my famous former schoolmate. She’s pretty recognizable I think -I’m there too (circa 1978).

WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate anywhere, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story from Toronto. Politician claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small businesses, & THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION just obliterates him with data. toronto.citynews.ca/video/2024/1...

Tomorrow the Cabinet will be announced so today MLA’s are remaining tight-lipped. Some big -and some tall shoes to fill.

The @coastreporter.bsky.social reported this theft in 2022. Suspiciously it remains unsolved. #SunshineCoastBC

Newly sworn-in MLA Randene Neill at a desk in the B.C. Legislative Chamber.

My name and constituency written in ink in the desk drawer, an old tradition in the B.C. Legislature.

I am so happy to see this brilliant new MLA for the #SunshineCoastBC take her seat in the Chamber. I think I changed seats 8 times but I’d have to check the desk drawers.
