“Investment has left Canada for other jurisdictions. The jobs that come with investment, together with the taxes & royalties, were never realized. Foreign investors & producers have left and taken with them the benefits they bring. Yet through this, the world has not demanded one less barrel of oil.” Read this whole thread👇

I had the pleasure of introducing @cenovus CEO Jon McKenzie at the Global Energy Show today, and while the media has focused on his description of Pathways as "unfinanceable", his comments were more nuanced and the whole speech was a banger. My top 🔥 quotes from his speech: /1

CBC can call it a “peaceful ceremony” all they want. At the end of the day, blocking highways is illegal.

Uncertainty hangs over Joffre Lakes Park as Lilwat Nation continues to demand closures to non-Indigenous Canadians. @CBCNews reports that last year, after requested closure dates were not honoured, a "peaceful ceremony" blocked access to the park, Highway 99, and Pemberton

BC's NDP government is allowing the unlimited legal liability caused by UNDRIP to continue unaddressed for the next 6-12 months, rather than moving quickly to protect the interests of British Columbians. Why? As Geoff Moyse writes in @WDiminishment, "they are afraid to confront the First Nations Leadership Council's effective veto — through threats and intimidation — of their legislative authority." We desperately, desperately need a government that won't be held hostage to these kinds of threats. We need a government that understands its fundamental duty is to put the public interest first.

Geoffrey Moyse: The NDP refuse to fix DRIPA themselves "As a piece of provincial legislation, DRIPA can be amended, suspended, or repealed by the B.C. legislature. There is absolutely no need for an appeal to the SCC to deal with a legislative problem." withoutdiminishment.com/p/geoffrey-moy…

Last week, the NDP government released another of its countless “anti-racism” reports that further embeds their radical critical race theory into every corner of the public service. 🩺 Overworked, burned-out healthcare workers can now add hours of mandatory Indigenous-led “cultural safety” and anti-racism training to their duties, followed by post-training assessment to demonstrate their ideological adherence. 👨‍💼 The grossly-expanded public service, which is already not delivering for British Columbians, will now spend countless hours completing even more mandatory “Indigenous Crown Relations Essentials” to create “culturally safe workplaces.” 🏥 Our overstretched healthcare system will spend scarce dollars reviewing chronic disease programs “using an antiracism lens.” 💸 Further tax dollars will be spent applying “an inclusive and intersectional lens” to support “equitable access to outdoor recreation” and addressing “environmental racism,” as well as the “racial bias” of AI systems. It goes on… and on… and on. A $13.3 billion deficit, ER shut-downs & endless waitlists costing patients their lives, spending cuts for families of vulnerable autistic kids, and *still* the NDP find resources for their ideological pet projects. When we say we need to put an end to NDP activism and get back to common sense, this is what we mean.

Over the last few months, I met face to face with hundreds of people devastated by the NDP’s ruinous forest policies. Their stories were heartbreaking. The government’s finger-pointing at anyone but themselves has done nothing to get people working again. We need to urgently fix the NDP’s broken regulatory regime that is killing jobs, displacing families and depriving whole communities of opportunity.

The race is over. The members have spoken. And I feel good. Congratulations to @KerryLynneFindl on her win and to my fellow contestants @iainblackbc, @yuri_fulmer and @PeterMilobar for their strong campaigns. Thank you to my incredible team who believed in me, and to everyone who participated in this process. Now, it’s time to beat the NDP so we can restore hope and prosperity to the province we love.

Voting might be done but @NVanCaroline still crushing it

Voting is over, and I want to say thank you. To my team, to my volunteers, to the members. Win or lose, I’ll do my part to defeat the NDP and elect a big, strong Conservative majority government.

I’ve been saying for years, it’s just plain wrong to shut down park access based on ancestry. If I become Premier, it’ll be very simple: BC’s beautiful provincial parks belong to - and will remain accessible to - ALL British Columbians.

The Province’s Joffre Lakes “partnership” has collapsed. Líl̓wat says BC ignored its closure dates and is demanding a response by June 2. So who is in control? Is the park open or closed to non-Indigenous British Columbians? Will Highway 99 be blockaded again? #bcpoli

It’s been an honour to support @NVanCaroline from Day 1. I cast my ballot for a generational leader with conviction and a genuine love for B.C. Those of us who’ve spent years building this movement & knocking on countless doors understand what this moment means. Change is here.

It’s time to end public drug use in British Columbia. Vote for Caroline Elliott NOW to make it happen.

I’ve opposed DRIPA and land acknowledgements from day one. Proud to have @Stockwell_Day's endorsement, a leader who knows I’ll deliver real change for British Columbia. Join us: WinForBC.ca

Gonna double down here @by__brittany 1) why do this presser at the leg if not willing to face the press gallery 2) why was Apollo Chung at the presser - an individual named in the allegations who happens to be associated with the AB separatists 3) what was the purpose here

NEW: @NVanCaroline is the heavy favourite to win the BC Conservative Party leadership race, with bettors giving her a 92% chance of victory over Kerry-Lynne Findlay at 6.5% and Iain Black at 3% — Polymarket

An absurd ruling in a Waterloo case last week, where a judge declared homelessness a constitutionally protected class and blocked the region from clearing an encampment on land where a major transit hub is being built, exposes a deeper problem in Canadian democracy. Our most consequential legislators are increasingly judges, using the Charter to invent new rights not based on any precedent to impose radical progressive policy preferences on the rest of us:

Voting has officially started. I have not changed my mind. I’ve doubled down & tripled down. I wish I could personally vote for Caroline Elliott. She has the knowledge, the class & the conviction to take down Eby. If you’re registered in BC, consider her as a top vote.
