Demand the Standing Committee on Finance: Remove Part 5, Division 5 from the Bill C-15

Should federal ministers be able to exempt their corporate friends from labour laws? Environmental protections? Indigenous rights?

Bill C-15 would give them that power.

I just told my MP this is unacceptable. What about you?

Mark Carney and Danielle Smith’s MOU is an abuse of power and a spit in the face to British Columbians. They will never ram a pipeline through BC without the consent of Coastal First Nations and Northern Communities, and we’ll make fucking sure of it.Β #bcpoli

I'm quickly losing track of all the compromises of his values that Mark Carney is willing to make to sign deals. I'm really getting the sense that he does not care about losing all the NDP and centrist votes from the last election and that he doesn't really care about winning a second term.

Opinion: How Canada can protect B.C.'s iconic killer whales without busting the budget Three no-cost steps would advance the recovery of southern resident killer whales.

When it comes to the endangered southern resident killer whales, doing less will lead to their extinction. The federal government can implement effective, practical, science-backed measures now that cost little or nothing.

The last No Kings protests saw 4-6 million people turn out. They were peaceful. They were joyful. There were American flags everywhere.

Those of us who will be participating next weekend in what Emmer calls a "hate rally" for "terrorists" love our country - particularly its promise that we're all created equal, that we all have the right to speak freely, to enjoy equal protection under the law, to believe what we want, and to choose our leaders without fear of reprisal.

The No Kings protests are happening because Emmer and Trump and his regime are trampling on those rights and freedoms.”

The President seems unwell. From his physical symptoms to his visible cognitive decline, the American people deserve clear answers about his ability to serve. I’ve formally called on the White House Physician to provide transparency and the truth about President Trump’s health.

How B.C.'s property tax system delivers big benefits to multimillionaires, and why some say it needs to change B.C.'s property tax system is uniquely generous for wealthy homeowners. Some people think that should change. Find out more.

"Our government’s drowning in debt. Why are we subsidizing housing for such wealthy people?”

If the BC government is looking to increase cash flow without impacting services or implementing new taxes, reforming property tax deferrals to exclude the wealthy seems like awfully low-hanging fruit...
