May we find comfort in each other's presence.

Today in the house a transphobic question was asked. I was extremely disappointed by the question and the disregard for the harm and danger this languages causes

To the 2sLGBTQIA+ community, our government sees you and stands with you

Hate should have no place in the Leg and it has no place in BC.

When you’re sick, the last thing you should have to do is go to your doctor to get a piece of paper saying you’re sick. That's why we're amending the Employment Standards Act to remove the need for sick notes for short-term illnesses. #bcpoli #bchealthcare

***CW: Residential Schools

Today I rose to speak about the Residential Schools and the misinformation that is being spread by members of this House.

Racism should never be a partisan issue.

I'm glad to see @ubcic.bsky.social calling our BC MLA Dallas Brodie's residential school denialism for what it is: anti-Indigenous racism and hate: www.ubcic.bc.ca/ubcic_reject...

I support Premier Eby's statement

I hope to see more people speak up for survivors and ask John Rustad to take action.

Our families, friends, and loved ones deserve better.

After all the trauma residential school survivors have been through, they are being revictimized by the BC Conservatives mocking their stories. I know that not every BC Conservative MLA agrees, and am thankful of those who have voiced their concerns already.

And more action needs to be taken.

Rob Shaw @robshaw.bsky.social · Mar 6

David Eby slams Dallas Brodie for latest residential school video and says Rustad must fire her.
“He's been missing in action on this, and said there's a big tent. Well, a big tent that has space for racism is not a political tent. That's a circus tent. And he's got to get a clown out of the tent.”
