That's why it’s so disappointing that he’s now saying something very different on social media. Words matter. I hope he will consider their impact. 3/3
The agreement between BC and the Haida Nation resolves title on Haida Gwaii, and has no impact on private property—and he knows that. As he said yesterday, he supported this process when he was the BC Liberal Aboriginal Relations Minister. 2/
I'm very disappointed to see John Rustad say one thing in the Legislature, and turn around and say another on social media 24 hours later. Yesterday he said "I support title... it's what has to happen in this province." He called it "an important step." 1/

Vaisakhi is also celebrated in other parts of India as a harvest festival. People visit temples, gather for feasts and herald the arrival of spring. I wish everyone celebrating a joyous Vaisakhi. Vaisakhi Diyan Lakh Lakh Vadhaiyan! (4/8)
People will pray at gurdwaras, participate in parades called Nagar Kirtans and attend other happy gatherings. This day is also a time to recognize and honour the values at the heart of Sikhism, such as equality, community and Seva – selfless service to others. (3/8)
The order of the Khalsa gave the Sikh community a unique identity and bestowed on it a code of conduct that every Sikh is expected to follow. Vaisakhi is a time for family and friends to gather in worship and celebration. (2/8)
Sikhs in BC will join those around the world today in celebrating Vaisakhi. One of the holiest days in the Sikh calendar, Vaisakhi commemorates the creation of the order of the Khalsa by the 10th Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh Ji, more than three centuries ago. (1/8)
Everyone has a right to freedom of speech but scaring or intimidating kids while they’re learning at schools should be, and soon will be, illegal. (1/4)
#DYK BC has had the fastest growing tech-sector in North America for two consecutive years?! Today, I was excited to announce our investment of 778 new tech-seats at @UBC to train British Columbians for the jobs of the future. @VancouverSun Read more ⬇️ vancouversun.com/news/ubc-adds-…
Proud to have led the consultation on the Anti-Racism Act and engaging with 7,000 people from all walks of life. We held 225 sessions all across our beautiful province. Looking forward to the work ahead!

These changes will build on previous work to transform #MassTimber from a niche product to mainstream. BC leads the way today, but we know Canada is right behind us. We expect other provinces to also adopt these changes in short order. 🍁 👉🏾 news.gov.bc.ca/30656 🧵[5/5]
✅ Effective now, we're allowing for more #MassTimber exposure. Based on height and use - more exposed mass timber is allowed. For residential buildings up to 8-storeys we’ve removed the requirement to encapsulate so more of the wood's beauty can be displayed. 🪵 🧵[4/5]
✅ Effective now, we're allowing for for taller #MassTimber buildings in British Columbia. Encapsulated mass timber construction buildings can now be 18 stories for residential and office buildings - up from the previous 12-storey limit. 🏗️ 🧵[2/5]
This morning, I updated the BC Building Code with #MassTimber changes - effective immediately - that will: ✅Allow for 18 stories. ✅Allow for 9 stories without drywall. ✅Allow for different building structures - like schools and libraries. 🧵[1/5]
💐 I’m grateful for the work @bccancerfdn is doing for British Columbians facing a cancer diagnosis. Their work in prevention, screening, & innovative clinical trials has created improved treatment programs that are saving lives & creating better health outcomes for patients.
On the move all ways, everywhere, safely and cleaner. That’s what these new local active transportation projects are helping to build. Pretty pumped that our government is supporting your priorities! #bcpoli comoxvalleyrecord.com/news/comox-val…
House flipping - re-selling homes within two years for a profit - makes it harder for first-time homebuyers and families to buy an affordable home. This is just one action we're taking to make sure homes are for people, not speculators. StrongerBC.gov.bc.ca/Housing
Today is a turning point in BC. With changes introduced to the Police Act,we’re creating a policing system that is fair & responsive to the needs of our communities. This is just the beginning of our efforts to strengthen the policing & public safety in BC news.gov.bc.ca/30609
Today, we launched BC Hydro's competitive call for power - the first in 15 years - to generate the electricity we need to build a clean economy and create good jobs (800 to 1500 per year) across the province. news.gov.bc.ca/releases/2024E…

These changes will build on previous work to transform #MassTimber from a niche product to mainstream. BC leads the way today, but we know Canada is right behind us. We expect other provinces to also adopt these changes in short order. 🍁 👉🏾 news.gov.bc.ca/30656 🧵[5/5]

✅ Effective now, we're allowing for for taller #MassTimber buildings in British Columbia. Encapsulated mass timber construction buildings can now be 18 stories for residential and office buildings - up from the previous 12-storey limit. 🏗️ 🧵[2/5]
This morning, I updated the BC Building Code with #MassTimber changes - effective immediately - that will: ✅Allow for 18 stories. ✅Allow for 9 stories without drywall. ✅Allow for different building structures - like schools and libraries. 🧵[1/5]
