White supremacists at the Legislature. A Nazi flag in Saanich. I am horrified & heartbroken for BC’s marginalized communities. We stand with everyone targeted by this hate, and will fight tirelessly for a province where everyone can live a safe, dignified life.

Talking about proportional representation would be a smart move. It paints you as transformational, sets you apart from rivals, and promises to prevent scandal-ridden governments like Ford’s from winning absolute power without majority support ever again. www.thestar.com/politics/pro...

I live in a rural town and, like, I don't know how to tell you this, but the girls play on the boys team and vice versa all the time because otherwise we don't have enough players for a game and it's literally always fine so stop being weirdos about kids sports and just let trans kids play.

"Green energy isn't perfect." Nothing is. But it's a hell of a lot better than a planet that's uninhabitable. Progress, not perfection.

While they have you fearing Islam, Christian nationalists are telling women to shut up. They're in Congress writing our laws and attributing this fascism to God. There's no difference between what they're saying and Taliban fascism. Islamic teaching says women are equal partners.

We don't have to choose between food security and forest conservation. Agroforestry proves we can have both. Food on the table. Carbon in the ground. Life in the soil. #EnvironmentalSustainability

I am a virgin, and so are many of the women in my life. & It’s not about purity culture, it is that we don’t find men to be attractive people. 🤷🏽‍♀️

If a tech company told you their device was 8-12x more effective and 100x cheaper than competitors, you’d fund it instantly. That device exists. It’s called an existing forest. Fund forest protection like critical infrastructure.

Endometriosis isn’t just a women’s health issue—it’s a systemic one. If it affected men, would society demand they endure silent, severe pain? This is real, visible pain that demands recognition beyond gendered silence.

The Conservatives want you to believe they can cut your taxes, add no new taxes AND balance the budget, all without touching your health care. The BC Greens have a costed plan that makes life affordable and asks the ultrawealthy to pay their fair share. Vote Green on Saturday, Oct. 24.
