During B.C. Buy Local Week, I encourage everyone to support the restaurants, retailers, farmers and makers who contribute so much to our communities.

Now more than ever, your support helps local business owners grow and keeps our communities strong.

Protecting students is non-negotiable. Every child deserves a classroom where they are #safe, #respected & #welcomed, & we will fight for that every day.

Rustad’s handpicked candidates who are now in #OneBC continue to spread fear & division, putting vulnerable students at risk.

YouTube video by CBC News Ottawa-Alberta pipeline deal just 'politics,' not a real project: B.C. minister | Power & Politics

Interview with David Cochrane of CBC on the “rumoured” Alberta-Federal energy MOU. In BC, we support real projects. m.youtube.com/watch?v=z63H...

Signing the Canadian Mutual Recognition Agreement means:

What the Cowichan decision really means, and how we move forward together Niki Sharma and Spencer Chandra-Herbert: The fact is, you can respect Aboriginal title and protect private property.

BC Gov was the first to announce that we’d appeal the decision of Cowichan Tribes v. AG Canada et al. We strongly disagree with the court’s treatment of private property, but even as this case continues, we know lasting solutions are found through dialogue & collaboration with First Nations partners

Small businesses are the backbone of BC's economy.

They're driving innovation, creating jobs, and strengthening our communities.

This week, visit a local business and support the neighborhood cafés, bookstores and service providers who help BC thrive.

Great to be in New Westminster with my colleague Minister Jennifer Whiteside
to highlight our shared commitment to public safety and police training in B.C.

We know communities are feeling the impact of global economic uncertainty and big challenges.

Despite these pressures, B.C.'s economy remains resilient. In Sept:

✅Employment up 7,800
✅48,600 jobs gained yr/yr
✅25,000 private sector jobs, leading all provinces

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.

Big news for B.C. families 💙

Today, I introduced legislation that will make it easier for school districts to offer #ChildCareOnSchoolGrounds — so parents can find quality care in the same safe, familiar places where their kids learn & grow.

BC’s growth is Canada’s growth. A TeamCanada approach means we can defend Canadian steel producers while ensuring BC has access to fairly priced steel, so we can build our infrastructure, grow the economy, and continue supporting steel workers in B.C.

My message at NYC Climate Week: Look to BC!

Our clean energy means we can produce the lowest carbon energy products anywhere in the world.

While clean tech is chased out of other places, they are welcomed in BC.

We are ready to do this work while bringing prosperity to BC and Canada.

Exciting news!

Heading to Kamloops this morning to celebrate the expansion of the Highland Valley Copper mine.

This is a project of national significance that is going to provide thousands of well-paying jobs for British Columbians as our province becomes the economic engine of Canada.

Surrey is one of the fastest growing regions in Canada. That’s why we’re building more infrastructure south of the Fraser, faster.

People in Surrey will get better access to the services they need, while providing more jobs for British Columbians during construction.

Welcome to BC, Anglo Teck! Let’s get to work.

Welcome back!

With students returning to school next week, new schools & classroom additions are opening across BC.
 
We’re building the critical infrastructure that British Columbians rely on – and we’re going to keep building to meet the demands of our growing province.

Our elbows are staying up! 🍁

B.C.'s measures against Trump's unjustified trade war remain in place, including removing American liquor.

Any deal must benefit Canadians and protect our jobs and industries.

We're building to defend British Columbia.

🙌

When unexpected health emergencies happen, preparation can potentially save lives - every second counts.
 
That’s why starting this school year, AED and CPR learning will be part of every students’ education before they graduate.

The PNE fair has officially begun!🎡🎟️

As Minister of Tourism, Arts, Culture & Sport I met with the PNE executive to learn about its operations, strategic directions, and current challenges. I had an amazing time and encourage you to come down and see for yourself!

When it comes to #BCWildfire, nighttime operations have been a game changer.

The work of Coulson Aviation is nothing short of incredible. Their aerial night vision tech is part of why initial attack response has been so effective.

This is what a made-in-BC company looks like.
