Honoured to lay a wreath today at the Cenotaph in Victoria.

We owe a lasting debt to those who answered the call of duty and to those who continue to serve today.

May we honour their sacrifice not only in remembrance, but through the way we live, serve our communities, and .

Lest we forget.

Today, we honour the fallen, remember the veterans who have answered the call of duty, and recognize the brave men and women who continue to serve in uniform.

We can never fully repay the debt owed to those who have served our country. But we can honour their sacrifice by how we communities, and how we build a stronger future for the generations that follow.

We remember all those whose service secured the peace, freedom, and democracy we enjoy today.

Lest we forget.

Today, on Remembrance Day, we pause to honour those who served our country, those who sacrificed, and those who never came home.

For generations, British Columbians have answered the call to serve their country through wars, conflicts and peacekeeping missions around the world. That commitment to service continues today.

We remember those who returned home carrying the physical and emotional scars of war, and the families who endured uncertainty, hardship, and loss.

For many British Columbians, Remembrance Day is deeply personal. Cenotaphs in communities across our province bear the names of those who left home to serve Canada. Each name represents a life, a story, and a sacrifice.

The passage of time does not diminish their sacrifice. If anything, it places a greater responsibility on us to remember. It falls to each new generation to carry their stories forward and ensure their service is never forgotten.

The debt we owe those who served can never truly be repaid. But we can honour them by caring for our veterans, supporting the members of the Canadian Armed Forces and their families, and never taking for granted the peace, freedom, and democracy they helped secure.

Lest we forget. We will remember them.

Today’s news that Millar Western is curtailing Quesnel River Pulp indefinitely is a hard blow for Quesnel and for the workers and families who depend on that mill. Many of them have been off the job since September, holding out hope that they would be called back and my thoughts are with them and with everyone in the community whose livelihood runs through that operation.

Our government was elected to reverse the trend of the last nine years. Getting more fibre on the trucks and getting permits approved in months rather than years is how the mills we still have keep running, and how a mill that has gone quiet gets a reason to start back up. Millar Western has left the door open to a restart and we will be working with the company and the City of Quesnel to understand what it would take to walk through it.

There’s no overnight fix. The people of Quesnel will soon have a government that understands what forestry means to this province, that will make sure the supports are there for the workers affected and that is going to get to work on building the sector back.

Calling all Canadians!

Thank you to our Premier-designate, @LDoerkson, for recognizing Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas.

As a Sikh born and raised in Canada, this means a great deal to me. I’ve always believed strongly in religious freedom, whether it’s celebrating my own Sikh traditions or recognizing the faith and traditions of Christians and other Canadians.

That freedom belongs to every Canadian, regardless of their faith. It means being able to worship freely, celebrate our holy days and pass our beliefs and traditions on to our children.

We don’t have to share the same beliefs to show one another kindness and respect. I’m proud to see our Premier-designate carry that message.

Today, we join communities across British Columbia in celebrating Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas.

May the light of Diwali bring hope and prosperity, and may the spirit of Bandi Chhor Divas inspire freedom, compassion, and service to others.

Wishing everyone a joyful and

Happy Diwali & Bandi Chhor Diwas!🪔

Wishing you and your family happiness, peace, and prosperity. May this festive season bring light, hope, and countless blessings into every home.

ਦੀਵਾਲੀ ਅਤੇ ਬੰਦੀ ਛੋੜ ਦਿਵਸ ਦੀਆਂ ਲੱਖ-ਲੱਖ ਵਧਾਈਆਂ! 🙏

Thinking about everyone on the North Island and across the coast who has been hit hard by this storm, especially the families in Zeballos who had to leave their homes.

Another storm is coming through this evening, with more wind and rain on the way.

Please take the warnings seriously, stay away from fast-moving water and downed lines, and check on your neighbours.

To the BC Hydro crews, ferry workers, and first responders working through this, thank you.

Today Pte. Aidan Goulding was returned to British Columbia after giving his life in service to our country at CFB Wainwright.

To the police, firefighters and paramedics who lined the road from YVR, thank you.

To Aidan’s family, you have the condolences of every British Columbian, and his service will not be forgotten.

Pleased to welcome my counterpart from North Delta, MLA Monica Mohan, to the BC Legislature this week as we kick off our Caucus meetings!

I look forward to working together to strengthen Delta’s infrastructure, improve healthcare, grow our local economy, and ensure our eard and represented.

My heart goes out to the family, loved ones and the entire Nuxalk Nation community affected by this terrible tragedy. The news from Bella Coola is heartbreaking, and at a time of such profound grief and uncertainty, my thoughts are with everyone who is hurting and with all those supporting one another through an incredibly difficult day.

There are no words that can ease the pain of a tragedy like this. I hope the family and the community feel the care, compassion, and support of people across British Columbia as they grieve.

Thunderstruck - awestruck

Congratulations to Jennifer Whiteside on being named Interim Leader of the BC NDP.

I sat across the floor from her for a long time and she is a serious person who works hard for the people she represents.

A good opposition makes for a better government, and I expect her to hold us to account while we get to work delivering what we promised British Columbians.

Election Night Address from Conservative Party of British Columbia President @MauroAFrancis

Congratulations to BC Premier-elect @LDoerkson and the new BC Conservative government on today’s impressive win.

We are never going to agree on football teams but I know there are a lot of other areas where we will work together to build our provinces within a strong and united Canada.
