Ismaili communities are celebrating the birthday of HH Prince Rahim Aga Khan. Today is also a time to acknowledge and celebrate the continued dedication of the Aga Khan and the Ismaili community to advancing peace, understanding, and quality of life for people around the world.
Salgirah Mubarak!
Today, my family will join many across BC as we offer thanks for all we have, knowing that the blessings we enjoy we wish for all.
Thank you everyone who makes British Columbia an outstanding place to live. Happy Thanksgiving!
Let’s be clear about what Alberta is proposing:
BC loses billions of dollars of major projects from private investors.
AND Canadian taxpayers are forced to pay billions more because there is no interest from a private company.
That’s not fair. And fairness is a Canadian value.
BC has billions in shovel-ready projects ready to go.
Instead of real jobs for our province, the BC Conservatives are standing up for themselves, infighting and Alberta politics.
We’ll continue to ignore the noise and deliver for this province and country.
Most parents don’t work 9-3 and may end up scrambling to pick up their kids after school.
We’ve introduced legislation that, if passed, would allow school districts to offer seamless child care before and after school, on school grounds.
We support lasting peace for Israelis and Palestinians.

This week also marks two years since the war in Gaza began. A war that has taken tens of thousands of civilian lives. We mourn every innocent victim.
We stand with the international community: Calling for an immediate ceasefire. Calling for the release of all hostages.

Today marks the 2nd anniversary of the Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel that took 1,200 lives. Among them, Vancouver's Ben Mizrachi. The pain and grief felt by families, communities and across the world is profound.

BC is leading 🇨🇦 with major opportunities to deliver prosperity to all of Canada.
We have billions worth of private sector & First Nations led projects, that are ready to go and will create thousands of jobs.
Alberta’s fictional bitumen pipeline achieves none of these things.

As British Columbians we love our coast and will always protect it.
The North Coast Tanker Ban also secures billions in shovel-ready projects.
We won’t let this proposal, with no backer and no money, threaten real jobs for BC’s families.

You can also read, watch and listen to Indigenous-created content; support an Indigenous-owned business; and wear an orange shirt to show that ‘every child matters.’ Together, we can build a brighter future for everyone rooted in truth and reconciliation.

Today, I encourage everyone to reflect on the legacy of residential schools and join the journey toward truth and reconciliation. There are many Indigenous-led events happening throughout the province that are open to everyone who wants to listen, learn and remember.

The spread of misinformation about residential schools increases division among us and seeks to deny the very real experiences of former students and their families. We can’t get to a better future unless we acknowledge and learn from our past.

Our government denounces residential school denialism and recognizes the harm that it causes, not only for survivors, families and communities, but also all of us.

We listen to survivors’ stories, we recognize their courage and strength, and we learn from their experiences. Together, we recommit to walking the path of truth and reconciliation.

Today, we remember the children who never returned home from residential school. We stand with the survivors of these depraved institutions and the survivors of the intergenerational trauma that started within their walls.

The Bishnoi gang has terrorized people in our communities, using violence and extortion.
BC was the first to call on Ottawa to list them as a terrorist entity back in June.
This move gives authorities powers to freeze and seize the gang’s assets and keep our streets safe.
People deserve to live in safe communities, and people with complex mental health and addiction issues need dignified care close to home.
At UBCM, we announced that we are working to open more involuntary care beds across BC, with new sites in Prince George and Surrey.
Congratulations to the new leader of the BC Green Party, Emily Lowan.
I look forward to meeting with Ms Lowan and finding common ground to get results for people in BC.
