Fun John Horgan anecdote to close the night. One of my first press conferences I asked Horgan what advice he had for his successor (soft question I know but I was a nervous 22 year-old kid). His response: "when you see the brick coming for your head, duck."

I've been told Ballem's contract has been moved into Health Ministry and that she will still be advising premier from time to time. Has not left government. #bcpoli

Congratulations to President-elect Trump. Americans have sent you to do a critically important job for them. British Columbians are close neighbours with family, relationships and businesses on both sides. Looking forward to working collaboratively on our shared priorities.
