This week we witnessed a truly horrific school shooting in Tumbler Ridge. And at a time when British Columbians are uniting in support of the community, some people have been exploiting this tragedy to push a political agenda against trans kids.
That's shameful and wrong. 🧵

Turning reconciliation into a wedge issue might generate headlines, but it would come at the expense of jobs and prosperity for British Columbians.
We all want to build the B.C. of our dreams. To get there, the path forward is together — or not at all.

To my friends and neighbours affected by the devastating apartment fire in Steveston last night, my heart is with you.
The province is providing emergency supports. Thank you to the courageous first responders who responded swiftly. @IAFF1286 @Richmond_BC @RedCrossCanada🙏
This whole exchange is reason # 10,521 of why I love Richmond.

God this is gruesome.
As will be this short thread.
It's true, not all dead children were murdered, which seems to be Brodie's blind focus. Many were like little Jim Baker, who was left to die of spinal meningitis far from home, with insufficient care.

Canada’s trade response will strategically pressure Donald Trump where we know it’ll have an impact.
John Rustad thinks that strategy is unfair to US Republicans.
We don’t represent Americans. We work for British Columbians, and we’ll keep putting British Columbians first.
This proves my earlier point — Eby’s NDP is focused on framing Trump as a political enemy because their pollsters and strategists tell them it will poll well.
They care about playing partisan politics for their own gain, not about standing up for workers — that’s why they’re not trying to de-escalate and help British Columbians avoid tariffs, economic hardship, and chaos.
Our province needs a “BC First” strategy — but sadly, once again, we’re getting an “Eby First” strategy!
They just can’t help themselves…
Everything is about political opportunism and partisan politics for Eby’s NDP, they are obsessed with polls and playing pretend US politics… presumably, because they watch too many late night shows.
Minister Bailey, who was wearing US Democrat Party merchandise during BC’s election season, should not be planning retaliatory tariffs that are specifically designed to make Trump and the US think BC’s response is solely about impacting partisan politics in the United States.
I want to be crystal clear on this — it is dangerous and irresponsible for Eby’s NDP to specifically tariff only Republican states, who may not be at fault, simply because the current US president is Republican.
This risks further politicizing the trade dispute and verges on cross-border political interference.
The NDP Minister needs to stop playing politics and putting BC workers at risk — we need to come to the table and de-escalate, so we can save BC jobs. #bcpoli

That’s right—Richmond Fire-Rescue is officially on X (formerly known as Twitter, for those who still refuse to call it X). After years of fighting fires and saving cats in trees, we’ve decided to tackle our hottest challenge yet: another social media channel.
Whether it’s a community event or reminders not to fry a turkey next to your jerry cans, we’re here to inform, connect, and maybe make you smile.
Follow us before we set the Internet ablaze (figuratively, of course).

The new 5-lane Steveston Interchange will improve how people get around in Richmond, in advance of the new tunnel being completed. Westbound traffic moves onto the new crossing overnight Wednesday. Removal of the old crossing will follow shortly. @TranBC news.gov.bc.ca/31887 – at Richmond, British Columbia

Board Certified Surgeon in Austin, Texas is whistleblower on US Health Insurance Companies
She was just PULLED OUT OF SURGERY
while her patient was asleep and forced to speak with UnitedHealthcare who tries to cancel patients inpatient stay after surgery who has CANCER
“It's 2025 and insurance just keeps getting worse”
“I've never had this happen before. But during the second deep, I had a phone call into the operating room saying that UnitedHealthcare wanted me to call them about one of the patients who was having surgery”
“So I scrubbed outta my case and I called UnitedHealthcare and the gentleman said he needed some information about her, wanna know her diagnosis and whether whether her inpatient stay should be justified. — I was like, do you understand that she's asleep right now and she has breast cancer?”
“It's out of control. It insurance is out of control. I have no other words.”
You were sworn in as a new MLA in November… Are you saying you haven’t started working yet? MLA duties extend beyond when the House is sitting.

This is a normal annual legislative schedule that allows for MLAs to connect with constituents and do other duties.
When more work needs to be done, a new 'house' is opened and MLAs work longer hours over the same days.
Don't fall for rage farming. Demand action and accountability on the affordability crisis and low wages in BC.

We fought like hell and got things done.
