Campaigns are built through small moments: conversations, questions, encouragement, and people showing up. Thank you to everyone who has been part of this one. OneCity members are voting now until May 10th, and I would be so grateful for your support.

Thanks for this list Tom! Did you mean to tag @caitlinstockwell.bsky.social ?

What exactly does “public safety and affordability” mean to ABC? It certainly doesn’t seem to mean evidence-based measures like supportive housing that lead to greater affordability and public safety outcomes for everyone. 🧵1/5

Infrastructure Minister Bowinn Ma expects regulations empowering cabinet to designate "provincially significant" projects for a variety of fast-tracking measures will come into effect this spring Remember Bill 15? The bill the government said absolutely, urgently had to pass last spring? #bcpoli

Decisions at City Hall are falling short of our community values and leaving people behind: from banning supportive housing, cutting our sustainability office, to neglecting our public spaces. I’m running to be a OneCity council candidate to stand up for communities and the values we stand for.

Proud to be standing behind + with our incredible OneCity mayoral candidate @wazaroff.bsky.social at OneCity’s AGM. Congrats to both Amanda + William for running stellar nomination campaigns that challenged us not just to dream, but to organize, for a city that is more equitable, resilient + vibrant

Fun little programming note for Vancouver political nerds: @cbcstephenquinn.bsky.social and I will be hosting a live OneCity mayoral debate between Will Azaroff and Amanda Burrows tomorrow on the Early Edition. Tune in around 8:10! (we'll have a podcast version as well)

People who care about climate change are “dreaming nostalgically about the past.” - Minister Hodgson Gotcha. That explains a lot.

Great job @caitlinstockwell.bsky.social!

US podcaster Ezra Klein is the rising star of the tech-funded "Abundance" movement, which calls for fast-tracking major projects. Seemingly wooed, BC's NDP invited Klein to present to caucus, just months after their own deregulatory spree. My latest for @thetyee.ca 🧵

💥BREAKING💥 Four young Canadians just launched a lawsuit against the Canada Pension Plan investment manager, #CPP Investments, for alleged mismanagement of climate risks. Read more about the case brought by @ecojusticecanada.bsky.social and @gpllp.bsky.social 👉 bit.ly/4okNn1i

UN Secretary‑General António Guterres: "Countries that cling to fossil fuels are not protecting their economies – they are sabotaging them. Driving up costs. Undermining competitiveness. Locking-in stranded assets. And missing the greatest economic opportunity of the 21st century."

“There is overwhelming opposition from First Nations all over the Province to Bills 14 and 15. With the Province’s forced closure of the Bills last night, reconciliation in B.C. is having a near death experience." Grand Chief Stewart Phillip www.ubcic.bc.ca/fnlc_express... #bcpoli

And with that, the NDP secure their reputation as a government prioritizing ego-driven “Abundance” over their own obligations to DRIPA, and can absolutely no longer be called climate leaders.

@soniafurstenau.bsky.social: It’s not just the NDP government — and private industry — we’re being asked to trust. This bill would also empower cabinet to give authority to industry hired professionals and sidestep existing government processes and oversight. #bcpoli

This quote from then-MLA Jenny Kwan could apply to Minister Ma's words in 2025 just as it did to Minister Falcon's in 2003: “The legislation does not say what the minister claims.”

Great to stand together against Bill 15 this morning. This bill is a blank cheque for Cabinet to pick and choose which projects avoid rigorous EA and permitting reqts without any clear guardrails to uphold Indigenous rights and governance and ensure environmental protections.

When it comes to Bill 15, Premier Eby said no projects will go ahead without consent and that the legislation won’t be used for pipelines or LNG projects. None of that is written in the bill. Adam Olsen writes.

What is Bill 15, the speeding-up-major projects legislation introduced by the BC NDP - and what are the concerns? #bcpoli Fantastic explainer by @amandafollett.bsky.social and @zoeyunker.bsky.social thetyee.ca/News/2025/05...

“In developing Bill 15 the Province conducted no meaningful consultation and cooperation with First Nations and did not adhere to its own Interim Approach on the Alignment of Laws (Interim Approach)." Grand Chief Stewart Phillip www.ubcic.bc.ca/fnlc_questio...

🚨 TAKE ACTION: Bill 5 would gut the Endangered Species Act, hand power to wealthy developers, and break promises to First Nations. Submit your comment by May 17 to help stop it. Environmental protections didn’t start this trade war. Erasing them won’t end it. 👉 bit.ly/3SiU19W
