Today, we shared an update on wildfire and drought conditions in B.C. I encourage everyone to take a few minutes to make an emergency plan, prepare a grab-and-go bag, and stay informed through EmergencyInfoBC.ca Watch the update here: www.youtube.com/live/BqIvHSG...
Today marks 5 years since a devastating wildfire destroyed much of the Village of Lytton, changing the lives of people who lived there. The level of destruction was unprecedented in BC as homes, businesses, records and most of the villages critical infrastructure were lost. (1/3)
Such a terrible boat accident off B.C.’s coast. My thoughts are with the families and friends of those lost in this tragedy. Thank you to those who stopped to help, and to our brave coast guard rescue crews.
Today, Ministers @rparmarbc.bsky.social, @randeneneillmlabc.bsky.social & I provided a seasonal outlook. As BC enters another summer that could be hotter & drier than usual, we urge people & communities to prepare for potential impacts of wildfire, drought & water scarcity. 👉 news.gov.bc.ca/33920
As we head further into this wildfire season, I want British Columbians to know The BC Wildfire Service has been on the ground and in communities. Working to keep our families and infrastructure safe.

Even Conservative MLAs don't support Kerry-Lynne Findlay and her Trump-style politics. She attacked the family of Conservative MLA Peter Milobar just because they're Indigenous. She's the most extreme, divisive party leader in BC history. No wonder pro-Trump MLAs all back her.
I'm not sure if I'm sufficiently woke to know if this is lit. Seriously though, this reminds me of some of comms work from the City of Prince George, which is a good thing.

Today we officially named the Site C dam and generating station after John Horgan — a leader who brought resolve, pragmatism, and purpose to one of BC’s most important decisions. We also recognized Nááchę mege (“Dreamer Lake”), honouring First Nations culture and history in the Peace Region.
Canadians love Canada. They show that every day in so many ways. For a provincial political party in Alberta in an effort to “unite the right” to play double or nothing with our country is wrong. bsky.app/profile/saro...
Scott Robertson@sarobertson.bsky.social · 2mo agoAdrian Dix: "It's disappointing that to internally unite the right in Alberta people will play double or nothing with the country ... sometimes the federal government makes decisions I don't like either. But I don't think Canadians believe that you should put the country at stake because of that."
