So pleased to officially announce my forthcoming book:
“The InBetween Leader: Cultivating Courage and Unity in a Complex World.”
📕 is available Sept. 29th, 2026. I am very much looking forward to engaging with many you in the months ahead. 🙏🏽😁
I am devastated by today’s horrific shootings in Tumbler Ridge, B.C. My prayers and deepest condolences are with the families and friends who have lost loved ones to these horrific acts of violence.
I join Canadians in grieving with those whose lives have been changed irreversibly today, and in gratitude for the courage and selflessness of the first responders who risked their lives to protect their fellow citizens.
Our ability to come together in crisis is the best of our country — our empathy, our unity, and our compassion for each other.
I have connected with Premier Eby to express my condolences, and with the Minister of Public Safety, Gary Anandasangaree, who is coordinating the federal response.
Our officials are in close contact with their counterparts to ensure the community is fully supported as best we can. The Government of Canada stands with all British Columbians as they confront this horrible tragedy.
I encourage everyone to watch and share this powerful video about Darwyn Danesh, son of my dear friend and co-author Roshan Danesh. 🎥
Let’s make positive change for children everywhere. 🙏🏽🩷
Please watch and share this new video about my son Darwyn Danesh and his end of life care. We have much to learn and change in our health care system.
🙏 ❤️

Just a note to say thank you for all the expressions of love & support I have received from so many. Special gratitude to those who shared their stories of resilience & strength in the face of cancer.
I am inspired, hopeful, & buoyed by everyone’s kindness.

Oh my. This is such sad news.😢
My sincere condolences to Kirsty’s family and friends. I will always remember my former colleague for her genuine kindness, love of life, and her extraordinary commitment to public service. 🇨🇦
#RIP Kristy. ❤️🙏🏽❤️
Hard to believe it has been 1-year since you left this life Dad.
I feel your presence, strength and guidance every day. 🦅
I love you so much—forever and always. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
PS—In my little way I will strive to honour the example of my grandmother and my parents who kept on contributing when facing hard times.
While I can’t do all I would normally do, I am excited to work away during this time writing a new book, w/ Roshan Danesh, on leadership.📕✍️
Please look after yourself by getting regular mammograms & getting tested for other cancers & illnesses! 🙏🏽
I also ask you to encourage others to monitor their health & well-being, seek out care, & continue to help one another (especially these days) to be well and good.

It is something to turn on the news & watch my former Cabinet colleagues say & do the exact opposite of what they claimed to be committed to when I was there. Total lack of principles & backbone.
No wonder there is so much cynicism & contempt for our political leaders. #cdnpoli
Thx @BCOmbudsperson for your report & Min. @Josie_Osborne for your stm.🙏🏽
I was blessed to know Darwyn—an incredibly sweet & special boy…who deserved better!
🙌🏾 to his family for carrying his legacy forward w/ your advocacy for better pediatric palliative care coordination.🩷

Today's Ombudsperson report makes clear that the system failed Darwyn and his family. We acknowledge government's role in those failures and the harm caused. Darwyn's legacy must be a stronger, more responsive system that better serves people.
