B.C.'s population is aging, yet B.C. still lacks a comprehensive plan to meet the growing needs of seniors. Ahead of Oct. 24, ask candidates where they stand on the future of seniors' care. Because seniors deserve #HomesNotHospitals. Learn more: homesnothospitals.ca

🧠2/3 of Canadians living with dementia are undiagnosed. This means many people living with dementia may not be getting the information, care and support that could help them. 💬Recognizing changes and talking about them sooner can help open the door to assessment and support. 🔹An earlier dementia diagnosis can also give people and their families more time to understand their options and plan for what comes next. The sooner you know, the more you can do. Go to smallstepsbigdifference.ca for more information on dementia and cognitive impairment. #SmallStepsBigDifference #DementiaAwareness #BrainHealth

NDP voters angry with Eby won’t vote for hard conservatives, they’ll either go Green (unlikely) or Centre. Milobar isn’t Carney but his biggest selling feature is that he isn’t Eby, or Brodie or KLF (now resigned).

Agree!
Even with resignation of KLF I still plan to support CentreBC. At end of say party still has too many cultural warriors so cannot support in good conscience. BC needs a technocratic centrist much like we have federally with Mark Carney

Let’s hope so.
I’m told CentreBC under Peter Milobar will carry on as planned. KLF resignation doesn’t alter that.

Early June 2026. When the main parties were tied. When the Official Opposition caucus had 12 more members. The appetite for a third option in #bcpoli is not new.
Almost half of British Columbians (47%, -5 since April 2026) believe the province needs a centre-right party to serve as an alternative to the BC New Democrats and the BC Conservatives. #bcpoli researchco.ca/2026/06/08/bcp…

David Eby & the NDP have destroyed British Columbia. I am honoured to join @VoteCentreBC with our new leader @PeterMilobar & the rest of the team as we work to get BC back on track.
Mike Bernier resigns as @VoteCentreBC leader to make way for Peter Milobar. The former BC Conservative MLA and leadership candidate left the party in August. Six MLAs had joined Milobar's new party earlier - Banman, Bird, Paton, Warbus, Wat, Wilson, Elenore Sturko has become #8

I am thrilled that CentreBC will be going back to the legislature this fall with a caucus of experienced MLAs. Thank you BC for your support! @VoteCentreBC Today we made history in BC politics.

A new government report says the impacts of climate change in Canada are now largely irreversible and average temperatures are expected to rise by at least 3.5 C by the end of the century. cheknews.ca/changes-to-canad…

It is really encouraging to see the support for a moderate political movement that believes in fiscal responsibility and liberal social policy. I have felt adrift politically for a while but I am optimistic British solutions are coalescing around common sense. #bcpoli
