Thank you to the volunteers & supporters. It has been such an honour to serve you as MP.

Congrats to Tamara Kronis on being elected as MP for Nanaimo-Ladysmith.

Today I will spend time with family. But I’m not going anywhere, there is still work to do.

Thank you Nanaimo-Ladysmith. Much love. 🧑

Great to speak to @lisamariebarron.bsky.social at this event. Here in our riding, the NDP are considered by most to be the ABC (Anything But Conservative) vote and Lisa has our full support. 🧑

Thanks for the chat Dirk! Always happy to talk about how proportional representation would mean a more collaborative government that makes sure people aren’t left behind.

That we could find common ground & ultimately make stronger legislation & break down the divisiveness that we have been seeing.

Heading to Vancouver Island as part of the resistance tour and to put the run on some very toxic MAGA MAPLE candidates.

I call on all candidates across parties to join me in endorsing the #VotePalestine and Protect Palestinian Children Now campaigns.

Canada must protect innocent civilians, international rule of law, and enable a just and lasting peace in Palestine and Israel.

More unites us than divides us.

NDP incumbent launches re-election campaign in Nanaimo-Ladysmith Lisa Marie Barron opens campaign office in downtown Nanaimo

One of the things I am most proud of is the new dental care program... I hear all the time from people who it already helps locally, and the program will expand soon.

As the incumbent, I know there is much left to do, especially for affordability and housing, and so I am seeking re-election.

On the Intl Day for the Elimination of #RacialDiscrimination, I reaffirm my commitment to #FightRacism.

As many countries & some political parties in Canada are abandoning equity & anti-racism initiatives,Β New Democrats will continue to push for a Canada where everyone is free from discrimination

Watching Trump and Vance engage in this appalling display of bullying is deeply troubling. It raises serious concerns about the future of democracy and global stability.

Trump poses a direct threat to Ukraine and to all of us globally fighting to protect sovereignty and to secure our future.

New Democrats have secured an investigation with the Privacy Commissioner of Canada to look into national security risks and data privacy concerns related to X.

Because of this, I have deleted X.

Billionaire Elon Musk uses X to campaign for political candidates and supports Trump's outrageous idea of Canada as the 51st state. Elon Musk needs to be held accountable for his anti-democratic actions.

The risk of nuclear catastrophe has never been higher. Canada must take a stand and lead in the global push for nuclear disarmament. That’s why I’ve signed a letter calling on Canada to join crucial nuclear disarmament talks at the United Nations next week. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ #nucleardisarmament

As Canadians wear pink today in solidarity against bullying, I renew my pledge to help build a country that is kind, compassionate, & supportive.

When we all stand together, we send a clear message that we will not tolerate bullies.

Today, and every day, I stand with you! #pinkshirtday

Standing in solidarity with LifeLabs @bcgeu.bsky.social workers. Despite the vital work these skilled professionals do, LifeLabs has yet to come to the table with a reasonable offer to improve working conditions. It is time Lifelabs gets back to the bargaining table & negotiates a fair deal! ✊
