British Columbia’s trade mission to India!

[BC Government News @BCGovNews]

BC is heading to India. Next week, Premier David Eby, Minister Ravi Kahlon and a small BC delegation will showcase our strengths in clean energy, tech, forestry and critical minerals to help us build a more independent economy and create more good jobs for British Columbians.

Not a law and order but a fear of truth! This is disheartening to see how weak as a nation we are growing and how fragile our democracy is turning into. True respect to those and #SonamWangchuck who dare to speak truth to power!

Woke up to such horrible news and hard to believe something so terrible has happened.

My heart goes out to every soul lost in the Air India tragic crash. May they rest in peace, and may their families find strength in this unbearable time. 🙏🏻 🕊️

Pakistani army and Indian rulers share the same mindset. And sadly, there's no hope for either of these countries!

If this continues, all that’ll remain is illiteracy, hate, blind devotion, and extremism - nothing more.

War is the solution only when it truly is the only solution, not when it’s merely projected as one. 🙏🏻

Sadly, people don’t have opinions of their own. Just by following the crowd, everyone suddenly claims to be so called patriot. If they’re shown that war is the solution, they’ll blindly chant for war. If they’re shown peace is the way, they’ll chant for peace just as easily.

People even sitting thousands of miles away from the border—spineless and only here to watch the show—are also raising slogans of war in this situation.

In a country where truth is constantly suppressed and lies are fed to the public, where people don’t even know how to ask questions, herd mentality is bound to rule.

And honestly, nothing can’t be done.
Like someone wise once said, "100 bevkoofon ke aage 50 smjhdaar bekar hain”.

Remember, it's not about getting provoked, not about Us vs. them. It's about sticking together, supporting peace, harmony, and progress.
Thanks @dhruv_rathee for trying once again to open minds beyond religion. Although, It's unfortunate that half of the population still fall for divisive tactics.

This is truly horrific and heartbreaking. May the innocent souls rest in peace 🙏🏻. It’s extremely unfortunate that because of toxic politics defenseless people are losing their lives, and hatred keeps going back & forth between both communities, which is only pulling us further backward. Something is clearly wrong, but we keep ignoring it, focusing only on which religion is better instead of focusing on humanity 🫤.

Sad that Delhi has also turned into an “Andhbhakt.”

This Guy #IITianBaba needs rehab and the compassion, not to be treated as God or an ideal 😐

Alright! So the show has finally begun. One thing to know is that early or timely elections are both gonna be hard on us for sure. We are already under tariff threat, and multiple issues are lying unsolved. Whenever the elections are, but It might be interesting to see and bad to experience, what the new government will have great to offer.

Let’s not be illogical , reluctant and so conventional guys. We have to understand Atul Subhash’s case is far beyond than men vs women. It’s about right vs wrong and good vs evil. This case clearly highlights corruption, unfairness, and the misuse of laws that were meant to protect the vulnerable and the Laws like IPC Section 498A were created for a valid reason, but see their misuse not only undermining the credibility of the law but also destroying innocent lives.

It’s also disheartening to see people within the judicial system exploiting these laws and turning them into a money making business. It’s a high time to ensure that laws are implemented , amended with fairness and accountability so they serve their true purpose without being weaponized. Atul deserves justice, and those involved in this wrongdoing must be held accountable and punished.

Together, we can make sure BC is a place where people can get ahead, and everyone can build a good life. We won’t stop until that job is done.

[BC NDP @bcndp]

John Rustad’s BC Conservatives are a risk you can’t afford. Rustad has a 20 year history of cutting services, doubling medical fees, hiking car insurance rates, and making housing costs double – closing the door for many families. John Rustad is a risk you can’t afford. Watch:

[Jyoti Thakur Azad @Azadstar_jyoti]

@bcndp is at your side .

[BC NDP @bcndp]

David Eby is on your side to build a BC where you don’t just get by, you get ahead. David Eby and the BC NDP team are opening up more middle class homes, hiring more family doctors, nurses and health care workers to shorten waits and growing an economy for all.

Watch now:

[David Eby @Dave_Eby]

I'm hearing from lifelong BC Liberals who just can't vote for John Rustad's risky plan.

If you care about climate change. If you want to protect your reproductive freedom. If you want to build hospitals, not cancel them. I have a message:

You have a home with us in the @bcndp

[Jyoti Thakur Azad @Azadstar_jyoti]

Climate change which is a real threat is still not getting the coverage it needs. Why? Where is Indian media’s nose for news now ? Why national and local governance is ignoring this ?

Thank you, @mohakmangal, for consistently highlighting extremely important issues.

No offense, but I'm relieved I'm no longer shouting "Modi Modi" on TV. Looking back, I realize I wasn't doing journalism, it was a puppet show. I now pity the yelling anchors on screen. I'm proud to uphold journalistic conduct, but sad that I once acted as a puppet.

धूर्त तो धूर्त है ही पर दुख है अगर जनता ने भी फिर से कम पढ़ा लिखा, कम रोज़गार, और ज़्यादा गरीब होना ही चुना है ….तो जनता ही दोषी है …अंधभक्ति में जनता ने ग़ुलामी को ही भविष्य बनाने की ठान ली है…. #लोकसभा_आमचुनाव_2024
