Thank you for the words of support. It’s a privilege and a responsibility to stand up for our community and the B.C. coast.

Very glad to see this from our MP @wgreaves.bsky.social Hope that @mark-carney.bsky.social understands too. From: www.nationalobserver.com/2025/10/02/a...

Will Greaves, the Liberal MP for Victoria and a fierce opponent of Smith’s proposal, told Canada’s National Observer last month that he wasn’t sure Mark Carney and his cabinet appreciated the political firestorm that a new Northern Gateway would ignite. “I'm worried that they are underestimating the breadth and depth of concern and opposition to another coastal pipeline from Alberta to BC, and very specifically one that would go through the interior of the province in the way that a Northern Gateway project would,” Greaves said.

Congratulations again to Canada’s Women’s National Rugby Team on their World Cup final finish, and to Victoria’s hometown pride Sophie de Goede for being named Player of the Year!

Do you know how Goede you have to be to miss half the year through injury, lose the Rugby World Cup Final, and STILL be named Women's Player of the Year?!?

Amazing, fully deserved achievement for Sophie de GOATe!

As the sun sets this evening, I wish all Jewish communities in Victoria, across Canada, and around the world a safe, solemn, and reflective Yom Kippur.

May this Day of Atonement bring fellowship, renewal, and optimism for the year ahead to all who celebrate.

On the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, it’s always a pleasure to join thousands of people from across our community for the 4th Annual South Island Powwow.

Today, we remember the past, reflect on the present, and commit to building a better future for all.

PM Carney telling the truth isn’t embarrassing. Conservatives pretending Ottawa runs BC Ferries is. They know better — but hope Canadians don’t.

BC Ferries runs its own business. The PM’s job isn’t to indulge Conservative conspiracies. Leadership requires facts, not fiction.

It was a thrill to join Victoria Grandmothers for Africa for the last leg of their ride from Campbell River to Mile Zero in Victoria.

A beautiful afternoon of families, friends, and fellow cyclists who have raised more than $200,000 for vg4a.ca.

The latest #WeeklyWrap: In the past week I met with local elected officials from the City of Victoria and the Districts of Oak Bay and Saanich, and connected with advocacy groups working on behalf of the most vulnerable in our community.
