Giving young people a reason to stay in British Columbia means more than talking about affordability. It means building a province where they can see a future. Good jobs in the trades, our ports, and in the industries shaping the future. ▶️ youtu.be/Ih5XaS2vTYc?si… #BCPoli #Nanaimo #Lantzville

Human rights must stand above politics. I spoke in the Legislature about why dignity cannot be conditional. Rights are rarely lost all at once, they’re weakened little by little. In B.C., human rights are not negotiable. Now or ever. 🎥 Watch: youtu.be/hDKoRPYmQOw?si… #bcpoli
