BC relies on workers in creative industry. But right now, governments are putting them at risk, legitimizing AI billionaires’ narratives that these workers are replaceable. /1 #bcpoli

Billionaires will make a lot of noise when you ask them to pay their fair share. These people make more money overnight than a worker makes in a year. They can afford it. #bcpoli

I am sickened by this news. Alarm bells have been going off about AI corporations since they launched — their lack of accountability is untenable. The government must step in with regulations. In the immediate, a rigorous investigation into OpenAI and a moratorium on AI data centres in BC. #bcpoli

We met Hasan Piker, the biggest left wing streamer in the world. As the 99%, we’re not out numbered, we’re out-organized. When we stand together, we have more power than we think⚡ #politics #hasanpiker

New poll confirms: We're the ONLY provincial party ((that's growing))!! We're on track to win more seats, hold the balance of power and force real change. Join the movement: bcgreens.ca 💚

Paramedics and dispatchers are on the frontlines of our healthcare crisis. This budget has shown all of us that the BC NDP is not interested in improving their working conditions. I stand with CUPE 873 — see you on the picket line. @apbc873.bsky.social #bcpoli

Amazon is doing what they do best — exploiting workers. I stand with Unifor Local 114 and call on the BCLRB to accept their request for a mediator. It’s billionaires against the rest of us. #bcpoli

It's also a story of structural ageism. BC is working roughly five times harder to prioritize spending for retirees than for younger residents. Our analysis: www.gensqueeze.ca/2026_bc_budg...

The BC NDP’s budget is hidden austerity for the working class. Eby has chosen the broken status quo. This budget raises taxes on working people, abandons $10-a-day childcare, and puts thousands of public servants out of work. #bcpoli /1

🚨Hidden austerity is still austerity🚨 Corporations and billionaires are the winners of the BC NDP budget, while working people are forced to foot the bill. Eby’s cuts abandon $10-a-day childcare, cancels public housing, and puts thousands of public servants out of work. #bcpoli #bcbudget

More on this later👀

My 12-year old daughters donated one of their favourite stuffies for me to leave at the memorial in Tumbler Ridge. It’s heartbreaking just to think of them not coming home safely from school today and every day.

Solidarity among everyday people is the truest form of love, happy Valentine's day Hasan Piker🫶🏻💚

Devastated by the news of up to 10 deceased in Tumbler Ridge shooting. British Columbians will mourn this for decades.

There are no right words for a moment like this. I am shocked and horrified at the tragic shooting that occurred in Tumbler Ridge. I grieve with the families who have lost a loved one. I wish for the speedy recovery of all those injured.

The renegotiation of our agreement with Eby’s NDP was a litmus test on their touted pro-worker values. They failed. The BC Greens are the party to take on the 1% and fight for working people. Thread on our CARGA proposal for year two — that the NDP unilaterally vetoed /1 🧵#bcpoli

'The BC NDP is chasing the BC Conservatives in a fruitless culture war... & driving the Overton window rightward' - BC Green leader @emilylowan.bsky.social talking to @cbcstephenquinn.bsky.social about @bcgreens.bsky.social ending their agreement with the NDP #bcpoli www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

BREAKING: We’re dropping our agreement with the BC NDP. To renew our agreement, we asked for material action. Eby’s NDP plainly refused. So we’d like to share a new agreement with YOU. We agree to fight for affordability, take on the establishment, and stand with the working people of BC, always.

Today @emilylowan.bsky.social @jervaler.bsky.social @robbotterell.bsky.social announced that the BC Greens will not be renewing the Cooperation and Responsible Government Accord (CARGA). #bcpoli

You can’t treat trauma on a sidewalk. You can’t recover in a shelter line. You can’t build stability without a door that locks. If we’re serious about mental health, addiction, and safety then we must be serious about housing.

Huge news!!! Credit to W̱SÁNEĆ Elder ZȺWIZUT Carl Olsen, @wildernews.bsky.social and others for their advocacy. #bcpoli news.gov.bc.ca/releases/202...

Politicians love to say youth are our future, but that doesn’t seem to stop their austerity measures from threatening higher education. Solomon Yi-Kieran writes. #bced #bcpoli #canpoli

We gotta come up with a better system than “everything rests on whether these twelve billionnaires are nice”

Please watch and share this. Boycotts, resistance, protests work. In the United States, and Canada too.

NEW: Five months out from Vancouver's first FIFA World Cup game, two progressive city councillors want the city to pre-emptively boot US Immigration and Customs Enforcement — ICE — off the pitch.

Foreign corporations get billions in taxpayer funding. What do they do with it? Strip our resources and leave working people to pay for the mess. It’s the BC NDP playbook: privatize the profits, socialize the costs. #bcpoli

Great @maddow.bsky.social recap on our successful Pattison ICE boycott🧊🚫 To keep up the pressure against ICE in Canada - follow @democracyrisingnow on Hootsuite actions, keep sharing and educating your community, and donate to relief funds for families impacted by ICE.

People power works. Thanks to everyone who came together to force Pattison’s hand this week. #bcpoli

Chaos out here? Nope. I’m speaking with CBC News about the closure of the Howe Street overdose prevention site. These sites prevent deaths and connect people to care. Shutting it down only guarantees one thing: more public consumption. more people using alone. More overdoses. More tragedy.

www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... @emilylowan.bsky.social You and the people have made the news again! Keep fighting!

Good. ICE isn’t “law enforcement,” it’s an industry of human suffering. Businesses should be cutting ties, not cashing checks. Great work @emilylowan.bsky.social for bringing this to everyone's attention.

WE WON. Celebratory gathering at 5pm @ Pattison HQ, to unpack our victory and next steps. Hootsuite ICE protest is ON as planned at 3pm, let’s crank up the heat🧊

Workers can win against the billionaire class when we stand together. Thank to you @ufcw1518.com and everyone else who fought for what’s right. Up next: a wealth tax, public groceries, and affordable housing. Let’s get to work. #bcpoli

It was a great day hanging out with @emilylowan.bsky.social in the DTES walking through the community chatting with people. Harm reduction, recovery and housing are vital services in helping others move forward with their lives. Human connection can change the direction of people's lives.

Today's file: Hanover County, Va, opposes sale of warehouse property owned by Vancouver-based Jim Pattison Developments to Immigration and Customs Enforcement for processing facility. Can't nix sale but will explore legal options and hopes DHS will reconsider www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

Frontline workers are holding our crumbling healthcare system on their shoulders. Should they choose to strike, I’ll be there on the picket line with them. Solidarity forever. #bcpoli

Hiding behind “it’s just business” is the new “I was just following orders” defence #boycottpattison #bcpoli #iceraids

UFCW 1518 has written to the Jim Pattison Group about the decision to sell a Pattison-owned warehouse for conversion into an ICE processing facility. We stand firmly against practices that dehumanize people anywhere — including the harms reported by victims impacted by ICE.

BREAKING: Another rapid response action! Indivisible Vancouver is leading a protest rally THIS FRIDAY January 30 against Jim Pattison, who is planning to sell one of his warehouses in Virginia to DHS/ICE to become a human processing facility. #boycottpattison #ice #iceraids #protest

The Pattison ICE boycott... and the case for public grocery stores. In grief and joy, it is up to us to force a new world through. Learn more and join us: bcgreens.ca/volunteer/ #boycottpattison #bcpoli #iceraids

Alex Pretti, a 37-year old nurse, was just murdered by ICE in Minneapolis. We must organize and build solidarity across borders to #AbolishICE. First up - BC billionaire Jim Pattison owns a US warehouse that will soon be turned into an ICE processing facility. Tell Eby to shut down the deal. #bcpoli

How the BCNDP got ghosted and wasted $150million on a foreign multinational, instead of investing in BC companies who are here to stay like @edisonmotors.bsky.social … ⚡️ It’s time to reclaim BC’s economy for working people — not foreign billionaires. #fighttheoligarchs #tour #bc #edisonmotors

Eby gambled billions of taxpayer dollars on foreign-built and corporate-owned LNG. The result? A failing market, mechanical issues and a rogue flare driving asthma rates. We must invest in a worker-first economy with public, sustainable industry that creates thousands of good union jobs #bcpoli

Edison Motors is eating Tesla’s lunch with made-in-BC hybrid truck manufacturing … This is the kind of local innovation we need to build a 21st century economy. Thanks to Chace at @edisonmotors.bsky.social for the amazing tour of your new shop in Donald, BC! 🚚 #fighttheoligarchs #edisonmotors

When we let foreign oil mega-corps control our jobs and economy — this is what happens. The global LNG market bubble will burst in 2030, right when BC projects come online. Eby is selling off BC to these foreign billionaires, instead of investing in working people and a 21st century economy. #bcpoli

The lobbyist org accused of genocide denial (CIJA), that Eby has met with and legitimized, is trying to block Hasan Piker from entering the country. If you’re a Hasan fan, or you’re tired of a govt that cares more about lobbyists than workers, we’ve got the movement for you: bcgreens.ca #bcpoli

"The Greens have a point," writes @robshaw.bsky.social . "Decriminalization was always meant to be paired with expanded treatment, wrap-around care and incentives to seek help. None of that ever materialized." #bcpoli

Mamdani started universal childcare on day 8. Seven years into their $10-a-day plan, the BC NDP is walking away from universal childcare access and is cowardly returning to a failing, income-tested approach. BC families deserve better. #bcpoli

This is the harsh reality of Eby’s LNG experiment. Kitimat is BC’s gas guinea pig — asthma rates are rocketing, the gas flare casts a dystopian 24-hour daylight and rental prices are sky-high. Together, we can get out of this boom-bust cycle and reclaim BC’s economy for working people.⚡️ #kitimat
