Fund the Frontlines⚡️💛 A sea of solidarity at yesterday’s rally - over 10,000 public service workers and supporters came out! @bcgeu.bsky.social we have your back, it’s an honour to fight alongside you and hold the BC NDP’s feet to the fire for a fair wage.

Hey @daniellesmithab.bsky.social, let’s find out first if we're part of the same country, before you come knocking w/ bitumen schemes💸 Laughable “national interest” pitch from a province trying to break up the country. Last thing our climate & coffers can afford is another TMX boondoggle #bcpoli

Emily Lowan’s victory is a sign that the climate movement still has the energy to capture voters. Hugh Chan writes. #bcpoli

I know that we’re at the forefront of a powerful movement that will reclaim BC’s economy for working people, not billionaires and multinational corporations. Now’s the time to get involved - join the BC Greens, become a volunteer (link in bio), and stay tuned for what’s next 💚
