People across BC deserve an affordable place to call home. While the Conservatives want to reverse the progress we’ve made by putting real estate speculators first, we’re focused on making housing more accessible for families.

Today, we remember women hurt or killed by cowardly violence and stand with survivors and their loved ones. As the 16 Days of Activism begins, we recommit to preventing violence, strengthening supports, and doing the work so every woman in our province feels safe.

Reconciliation strengthens BC’s economy and our communities. We reject racist, anti-indigenous rhetoric — and we’ll continue working in true partnership with First Nations to deliver jobs, certainty and prosperity for all British Columbians.

Cracking down on extortion threats is a big priority for our government. Today I heard directly from business owners on their experiences dealing with this threat. BC’s Extortion Task Force continues to make progress on these investigations. No one should feel unsafe in their home.

British Columbians know our coast and the opportunities it can unlock better than anybody else.   We need to be at table to protect our coast, unlock prosperity and ensure a bright future for all Canadians.

Korean Canadians have enriched the fabric of our society in countless ways. It was great celebrating Korean Heritage Month in the Legislature yesterday.

Three years ago today, I was sworn in as the Premier of this beautiful province. We have important work ahead, and we’ve already achieved so much, causing Canada to Look West for jobs and prosperity. Let’s get big things done!

Look West is our plan to secure hundreds of billions of dollars in investments, make sure British Columbians are first in line for jobs and drive success in key industries.

Every British Columbian deserves the opportunity to succeed. That’s why we’re making the largest investment in trades training. Providing $241 million over three years, we’re going to train the next generation of skilled tradespeople in BC to get big things done.

When presented with great challenges, British Columbians meet the moment. This is one of those moments. It’s great to see Ottawa recognize that. BC is ready to drive Canada’s economy forward. Let’s get it done.

Once again, Ottawa’s showing confidence in BC as a place that can get big things done. With two more multi-billion-dollar energy projects in Northwest BC identified by the federal government as major projects, we’re leading Canada’s new economy and creating family-supporting jobs across BC. (1/2)

Today marks one year since we lost our friend, John Horgan. Over the past year, we’ve been able to honour his legacy with the opening of the John Horgan Campus in his beloved community of Langford. It’s a reminder of a lifetime devoted to public service and building a better BC and Canada. (1/2)

Today, we honour the fallen and reflect on the cost of war. We salute the bravery of those who served and the sacrifices of their families. As we remember, we also honour those who continue to serve today, preserving peace and security. Lest we forget.

Surrey is one of the fastest growing cities in the province, and this new state-of-the-art facility is part of our government’s work to build BC and ensure every community has the infrastructure it needs to thrive.

Your reporting has been an important fixture in BC politics, Richard. British Columbians will miss you on their TVs, and we’ll miss you in the legislature. Thank you for your contributions to our province and best wishes in your new gig, which is surely curling related.

It’s been 10 years of the First Nations Leadership Gathering — and this year’s was the largest yet. This week, more than 1200 meetings took place between First Nations from across BC and the provincial government. It’s an opportunity to listen, learn and find ways to make a meaningful difference.

Our Economy, Our Coast

Protecting our coast is not a barrier to economic prosperity – it is the source of it. That’s why we’ve partnered with Coastal First Nations to sign the North Coast Protection Declaration and call on the federal government stand firm in its commitment to uphold the tanker ban.

Today, Sikh communities will be celebrating Gurpurab – the 556th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of the Sikh faith. His message of equality and selfless service of others continue to inspire people of all faiths and backgrounds. Happy Gurpurab! (1/2)

Our country is facing an existential moment. The only path forward for Canada — and British Columbia — is in true partnership with First Nations. Full stop.

Unfair tariffs imposed on the softwood lumber sector threaten thousands of jobs in BC. We’re working with the federal government to expedite supports for the sector. Together, we’re going to protect BC workers as we become the engine of Canada’s economy.

It’s the spookiest time of the year! Whether you're out trick-or-treating like my family, going out to a party, or staying in to cheer on the Jays, I hope everyone has a fun and safe night. Happy Halloween!

Thank you Minister Fraser for hearing BC’s call to change bail laws. We will keep pushing to keep people and communities safe from violence and extortion.

It’s important for us to speak directly to Americans looking to build home or renovate. How much this work costs is going up – because Donald Trump has slapped additional tariffs on top of already unfair softwood duties. We didn’t do it, so we shouldn’t wear it.

If you’re seriously ill or injured, you shouldn’t have to worry about taking time off to get the treatment you need. We’re introducing 27 weeks of unpaid, job-protected medical leave, so you can have peace of mind knowing your job is safe while you recover.

Homes across BC and millions around the world will be lit up as family and friends gather to celebrate the triumph of light over darkness and justice over injustice. Happy Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas to everyone celebrating! (1/3)

Forestry workers built this province. Today, as they face unprecedented attacks from Donald Trump, we stand united with workers and industry leaders. We are calling on Ottawa to deliver the support they committed to the forestry sector — and to do it now.

Ismaili communities are celebrating the birthday of HH Prince Rahim Aga Khan. Today is also a time to acknowledge and celebrate the continued dedication of the Aga Khan and the Ismaili community to advancing peace, understanding, and quality of life for people around the world. Salgirah Mubarak!

Today, my family will join many across BC as we offer thanks for all we have, knowing that the blessings we enjoy we wish for all. Thank you everyone who makes British Columbia an outstanding place to live. Happy Thanksgiving!

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.

BC has billions in shovel-ready projects ready to go. Instead of real jobs for our province, the BC Conservatives are standing up for themselves, infighting and Alberta politics. We’ll continue to ignore the noise and deliver for this province and country.

Most parents don’t work 9-3 and may end up scrambling to pick up their kids after school. We’ve introduced legislation that, if passed, would allow school districts to offer seamless child care before and after school, on school grounds.

Today marks the 2nd anniversary of the Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel that took 1,200 lives. Among them, Vancouver's Ben Mizrachi. The pain and grief felt by families, communities and across the world is profound. (1/3)

Tonight, many Asian communities will be celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Full Moon Festival. People will gather with loved ones, light lanterns and share festive food, while giving thanks for the fall harvest and sharing hopes for the future. (1/5)

BC is leading 🇨🇦 with major opportunities to deliver prosperity to all of Canada. We have billions worth of private sector & First Nations led projects, that are ready to go and will create thousands of jobs. Alberta’s fictional bitumen pipeline achieves none of these things.

Today, Hindu communities in BC and around the world are celebrating Dussehra. Taking place at the end of Navratri, Dussehra, also known as Vijay Dashami, celebrates the victory of good over evil. It also marks the start of preparations for Diwali. Happy Dussehra! (1/3)

As British Columbians we love our coast and will always protect it. The North Coast Tanker Ban also secures billions in shovel-ready projects. We won’t let this proposal, with no backer and no money, threaten real jobs for BC’s families.

As the sun sets tonight, Jewish communities will observe Yom Kippur - the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. It’s a solemn day of reflection observed through fasting, prayer and seeking forgiveness. To all who observe this sacred day, Tzom kal and a G’Mar Chatimah Tovah. (1/2)

Today, we remember the children who never returned home from residential school. We stand with the survivors of these depraved institutions and the survivors of the intergenerational trauma that started within their walls.  (1/7)

The Bishnoi gang has terrorized people in our communities, using violence and extortion. BC was the first to call on Ottawa to list them as a terrorist entity back in June. This move gives authorities powers to freeze and seize the gang’s assets and keep our streets safe.

People deserve to live in safe communities, and people with complex mental health and addiction issues need dignified care close to home. At UBCM, we announced that we are working to open more involuntary care beds across BC, with new sites in Prince George and Surrey.

Congratulations to the new leader of the BC Green Party, Emily Lowan. I look forward to meeting with Ms Lowan and finding common ground to get results for people in BC.

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.

Climate Week is in full swing in New York, and we’re meeting with investors from around the world that are interested in projects in BC. That means more jobs for British Columbians and prosperity for all of Canada.

Tonight, at sunset, Jewish communities will celebrate Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year – an opportunity to look toward the future with renewed optimism. Thank you to @cijainfo.bsky.social for having us at your Rosh Hashanah toast last week. Shanah Tova! (1/4)

Tonight, Hindu communities will celebrate the beginning of Navratri. For the next nine nights, families, friends and loved ones will gather to pray and perform the traditional garba dance – celebrating the victory of good over evil and of light over darkness. Shubh Navratri! (1/4)

We are on the ground in Ottawa, delivering our message that BC is ready to create prosperity for all of Canada. Working together, we can grow our economy and making sure communities in BC and Canada are a safe place where people can build a good life.

Just landed in Ottawa and am meeting with Prime Minister @mark-carney.bsky.social. BC has tens of billions dollars worth of projects ready to move forward. My message to the PM - let’s get these projects going and create prosperity for all Canadians.

BC is leading the way with projects like this — delivering prosperity while creating stable, union jobs. At Highland Valley Copper, that means proud USW 7619, IBEW 258 and IBEW 993 members at work, building a stronger future for their families and for BC.

Major projects are underway in BC, and for continued prosperity, Canada must look west. Very proud to participate in the celebration of Highland Valley Coppers expansion today. Truly a historic moment for our province.
