The #NDP is more relevant than ever as the Carney government shifts to the right cutting social services for #seniors, #veterans & #youth while giving deals to their corporate friends. The NDP will hold them accountable because we remain the social conscience of #Parliament.

Fun fact: Even with Eby's proposed tax increase for "the wealthy", BC taxes on those earning over $400,000 a year will remain the 3rd lowest in Canada and 2nd lowest on annual incomes of $25,000. #bcpoli

Before starting the bus tour in #Surrey, BC NDP leader David Eby along with Dr Stalin Gill, whose is father of 3-year-old Gurmoh who has neurodegenerative disease called spastic paraplegia-4 (SPG4), addressed media. #bcpoli

David Eby concludes his bus tour in #Surrey as part of his poll campaign at Civic Plaza in Surrey City Centre. He targeted the opposition BC Conservative party leader over various issues and asked people to send NDP candidates to assembly. Reports: @parteekmahal #bcpoli

He knows his plan will cost you more.
Lorne Doerkson knows his plan will cost you - so he's hiding from questions about it again today. He's holding private fundraisers instead, and promising his donors things that aren't in his platform. Doerkson's hidden plan: healthcare cuts and higher costs.

Surrey is about to become B.C.’s biggest city, and it’s time this city was treated like it. That’s why we’re finishing the new hospital and medical school, and working with local leaders who’ve offered land to bring even more health care here. And with a Surrey Charter, just like Vancouver’s, Surrey will have the tools to shape its own future. Building a stronger B.C. starts right here.
Surrey is high energy, entrepreneurial and one of the most diverse places in the country. Right here in Cloverdale, the new Surrey hospital is rising out of the ground. It’s the largest health care investment south of the Fraser, ever. It was great to be here with Steven Dooley, who ran SFU’s Surrey campus and helped get the new medical school over the finish line. We’ve done a lot for Surrey, and we’re not done yet. Let’s keep building B.C. strong.

Lorne Doerkson scheduled two private maximum-donor fundraisers at swanky downtown Vancouver hotels, marking five private fundraisers since he last made himself available to the media. At $1500/ticket, we're learning more about what a Conservative government would look like: selling them out to private interests and making everyone else pay the price. bcndp.ca/releases/doerkson-m…

Tommy Douglas savait déjà à l'époque ce que les néo-démocrates savent encore aujourd'hui, Si nous avons été capables de mobiliser les ressources de ce pays pour vaincre la tyrannie nazie, il n'y a aucune raison de ne pas faire la même chose pour s'assurer que chaque personne ait ce dont elle a besoin pour vivre dignement. Bon anniversaire, Tommy.

Tommy Douglas knew then what New Democrats still know today. If we could mobilize the resources of this country to defeat Nazi tyranny, there is no reason we cannot do the same to make sure that each and every person has what they need to live a dignified life. Happy Birthday, Tommy.

Lorne Doerkson won't answer media questions about his plan - but Elections BC filings show he's been busy with private fundraisers for max donors. At this one yesterday, he promised to scrap David Eby’s housing plan, which would send housing costs skyrocketing again. With two more private fundraisers today, what else is he promising donors that British Columbians will pay for?

Last night, @RenfrewParkCC and CNH hosted an All-Candidates meeting. The BC Conservative candidate no showed the event on orders of their central campaign. The BC Conservatives want our votes but they want to hide their extreme views+uncosted proposals.

I got my flu and covid vaccines today and the pharmacist who gave them to me is most concerned that shots like this and the RSV, which is free to Seniors 75 and over may not be available if government should change. I wonder if BCers realize how this is b/c we have NDP.

Conservatives and Liberals are working together to ram Bill C-39 through Parliament. They don’t want to hear from Canadians, and they are afraid to have their legislation scrutinized. New Democrats are standing up for Canadians whose voices are being ignored.

The Liberal government is rushing Bill C-39 through Parliament without proper scrutiny. On their special committee, they’ve limited testimonies from dissenting voices to just eight hours. It’s clear that this government doesn’t care what Canadians have to say.

Really don’t think BC Conservatives should govern. BC Conservatives seem as wacky and ideological as Alberta’s UCP. pressprogress.ca/bc-conserva…

Being an MP is a full-time job. Period. I can’t imagine any MP who is truly engaged in their duty having a single minute to devote to a second job. It also leads to questions of conflict of interest and divided loyalties. IMO, secondary employment for MPs should be prohibited.

Newton is growing fast, and the people who live there deserve SkyTrain at their doorstep. A BC NDP government will work with Surrey to bring it down King George Boulevard. Mayor McCallum and I got SkyTrain to Langley moving together. Let’s do it again for Newton.
