UBCIC condemns the offensive comment shared by BCCP candidate Bryan Breguet. Such narratives ignore the historic and ongoing impact of colonization and systemic racism. Candidates should focus on justice reform and not on attacking racialized groups. #bcpoli

Any reporting about Hurricane Helene needs to be clear - this is not normal. This is not just a tragedy. This is a crime.

Make them pay.
