Great to visit Squamish yesterday with Minister kellyrichmondbc.bsky.social, to see the completed Jimmy Jimmy (Judd) Slough diking project. A joint investment of more than $7M is strengthening flood protection and community resilience. news.gov.bc.ca/releases/202...

Great to see continued investment in trade diversification and economic growth. The Port of Prince Rupert is a vital gateway to global markets, supporting jobs and opportunities across British Columbia.

As we work to reduce our reliance on the U.S. and diversify trade, the Port of Prince Rupert is helping connect B.C. to new global markets every day. The Canada-B.C. Cooperative Prosperity Agreement is unlocking the projects needed to drive that growth.

Ready to stand up and defend British Columbians. Always.

BC’s first dedicated ash dispersal site is coming to #Delta, creating a publicly supported space for families to respectfully perform cultural last rites and honour loved ones. @ravikahlon.bsky.social

I was in Kitimat as LNG Canada and five First Nations signed a major equity option agreement: the opportunity to take majority ownership of the potential Phase 2 LNG storage tank, up to $1B. This shows what’s possible when Nations are true partners in projects that grow B.C.’s and Canada’s economy.🇨🇦

Young adults deserve care that reflects who they are and where they come from. We are proud to partner with Seabird Island and @fraserhealth.ca on the First Nations-led Thíytelh Wellness Program, bringing six treatment beds to the Fraser Salish region.

Adults aged 18 and older with mild-to-moderate hearing loss can now purchase over-the-counter hearing aids without a prescription. Available online and in stores, these devices offer a more affordable and convenient option for people seeking hearing support.

Today, we remember the 19 workers who lost their lives in the 1958 Second Narrows Bridge collapse. Their tragic loss, and the resilience of the families who have carried their memory forward, continue to strengthen our commitment to protecting workers + ensuring everyone returns home safely.

BC habitats impacted by wildfires will soon be reforested with new seedlings, shrubs, herbs and other native plants. Planting 125 million more trees helps support species at risk, builds resilience to climate change, and supports communities throughout the province.

Across BC, renters are starting to see real relief:  • Asking rents are down 12.5% from 2023  • Vacancy rates are rising  • More options for renters, including ability to negotiate their rent • 26,000+ purpose-built rentals registered in 2025  Progress is underway, with more to do.

BC’s Central Coast is an extraordinary place - home to whales, salmon and seabirds, and deeply connected to coastal First Nations for millennia. A new National Marine Conservation Area Reserve will protect these waters while supporting economic prosperity.

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.

Exciting day at the Legislature! The K’ómoks Treaty Act has passed Second Reading and is one step closer to ratification.

It was a pleasure to attend the Web Summit Poland / EU Reception in Vancouver yesterday - excellent opportunity to connect with innovators and leaders from across Europe’s dynamic tech ecosystem. #websummitvancouver @brendavancouver.bsky.social @rickglumacbc.bsky.social @davidebybc.bsky.social

Wonderful to sit at the table with the City of Prince George. Communities like Prince George are ready to partner with the Province and Northern Health to address pressing health care challenges, particularly for seniors.

It was truly an honour to attend HMCS Discovery's Battle of the Atlantic Tribute Dinner. This evening was a powerful tribute to the sailors, merchant mariners, and aircrew who served with courage and sacrifice during the longest campaign of the Second World War (1939–1945).

Survivors of intimate partner and sexual violence should never feel silenced, disbelieved, or alone when they step forward to seek #justice. Yesterday, the BC Prosecution Service updated its policy about how victims of these crimes are crime are treated in our #legal system.

At 1:55 p.m. tomorrow - Wednesday, May 6 - a test of the BC Emergency Alert system will take place. You’ll hear the alert tone and receive a message on your phone, TV or radio. Testing makes sure the alert system is working in case of an actual emergency.
