Docs labeled “confidential” just 2 weeks before snap elxn show @bcndp has committed to hand over 400 parcels of Crown land to First Nations, and craft a law to limit compensation to forest companies for loss of logging rights. My latest @BeatNorthern northernbeat.ca/opinion/rob-…

I don't care if you unfollow me for this. Justin Trudeau is the WORST thing to happen to Canada in my lifetime.

David Eby is a real scumbag. Over the course of his 97 years, Jim Pattison does more for the province by breakfast everyday than David Eby can hope to achieve in his entire sorry lifetime.
WATCH: David Eby doubles down on Jim Pattison comments - as a former NDP premier accuses Eby of "denigrating an icon". #bcpoli @GlobalBC @CUrquhartGlobal

The Oilers have beaten the Canucks THIRTEEN TO NOTHING tonight. Dave Lumley, 3G-2A, Gretzky 4A, MacTavish & Messier, 1G-2A. They spread it around. Frank Caprice allowed all 13 goals on 41 shots. Andy Moog, his fourth career shutout.

Two things I'm sure of with Evander Kane: 1: In this contract year - before he signs quite possibly his last NHL deal - VAN gets a good, helpful player. 2: You require a confident leadership group, a strong dressing room culture, and a stable org to handle Kane. He adds drama.

I'm wondering what Liberals think about this video in light of what appears to be the majority of the Liberal caucus and cabinet deciding yet again NOT to choose a woman as their party leader and our next PM.

This is criminal....if you're someone doing this, just stop and quit being a scumbag. These viewing parties allow people/kids that can't afford to go to the live games a chance to have an arena experience. #Canucks
The original price was $15... Yikes. 😬 Tickets were sold out for Friday’s #Vancouver @Canucks Game 6 viewing party at Rogers Arena. Now they've exponentially increased in price on the resale market. 😅 💸

This is a terribly officiated game. Both teams must be shaking their heads. Standing still, Pettersson gets called for charging. I believe you have to be moving to get called for charging.

Clear divide in BC b/w haves and have-nots, and at top of the haves are NDP hot-shots; can any BC MLA even remotely relate to this dilemma b/c they don’t have a family doc? Very easy to make light of, even laugh at something that will never affect you. Shameful but typical
Asked about Victoria woman taking out ad in the paper to plead for a doctor to get her 82-yr-old husband prescription meds, @jjhorgan says @JustinTrudeau needs to give more $ for health care. Asked what he'll do if PM doesn't, Horgan says "maybe I'll take out an ad in the paper."

Here's another public official muddying the waters, another official acting like lockdowns or covid-for-all are the only two options. Mr. Fleming, maybe you should start with the notion that winning is possible. Clean the air, mandate masks, vaccinate kids, and TRY TO CARE.

This is demonstrably false. The need to spin has become more important than maintaining public trust. It spotlights a very troubling politics & institutional culture—a pattern, not an anomaly in BC. Very disturbing to me as a researcher dedicated to health system improvement.
A rapid response for rapid tests: Learn how PHSA staff stepped up to make rapid antigen tests widely available when the wave of Omicron hit BC in December and January. ow.ly/Qp0o50Iu67r

Anyway, your smug tweet was offside. Do your job. If you’re too precious for Twitter discourse, you are definitely in the wrong line of work. Also, COVID is exhausting. Goodnight. 3/3 #bcpoli

Yes, Paul. Why is there such a massive difference between the number of rapid tests deployed in BC according to PHAC and the number claimed by Dix? Has BC been providing updated info on this to PHAC, or are they withholding info from PHAC as they have done in the past? Thank you.
