We are committed to supporting people in times of emergency and this funding will help prepare and train our extraordinary first responders who do so much to protect our communities.

Congratulations to Nanaimo, Cowichan Tribes and the Snuneymuxw FN who are receiving funding.

The deals they signed caused BC Hydro rates to skyrocket for people and businesses.

We've kept rates below inflation for six years in a row and over 12% lower than the former government's 10-year rates plan.

Whether it's rent or a mortgage, many people are feeling the pressure of high housing costs. That's why we're taking action to build more lower-cost, middle-income housing, help more people buy their first home & lower the costs of housing construction. StrongerBC.gov.bc.ca/Housing

BC has thousands of homes that have been listed as short-term vacation rentals. Last month, we took action to deliver more homes for people, faster. New rules will turn many of these listings back into homes for people across BC.

Working mothers & parents of young children deserve representation in the People's House, too. It's democracy, not charity.

We started our campaign believing in you – the people of Manitoba.

And in return, so many of you put your faith in us. You came out to support us – some for the very first time. You made calls & knocked doors. You voted.

From the bottom of my heart – Thank you. Merci. Miigwech.

We cannot and must not stand idly by in the face of any kind of bullying.

The safety of all children must always come first. Without hesitation, I denounce threats, hate and violence against 2SLGBTQIA+ communities. We are seeing a concerning rise in incidents where trans people are being targeted with threats and violence in person and online.

To every parent/guardian: I know you love & support your children, as I do mine. We are taking on the most important job we will ever have. I know we're united in ensuring that all of our kids have an opportunity to learn in a safe, welcoming environment.

(4/6)

To every student: We may not have met. I may not know your name or your favourite music, but I want you to know this: I accept you for who you are in every way. My job as premier is to ensure you all have a safe learning environment, so you can pursue your dreams.
