June is #NationalIndigenousHistoryMonth, a time to deepen our knowledge & understanding of Indigenous history, traditions, and struggles & to learn from Indigenous voices and stories. @BCUnitedCaucus is committed to building a more inclusive and equitable future for all. #bcpoli
📢Urgent appeal to @JM_Whiteside: address the critical need for a culturally appropriate detox centre in Northwest B.C. Northern First Nations Alliance has proposed a holistic facility to combat the shortage of treatment options. Support accessible mental health services #bcpoli
Racism has no place in our sports or our society as a whole. That's why we need more coaches like Brian MacGillivray, not fewer.
Parents and players deserve answers. I hope to see @SurreyMinor do the right thing and revisit their decision.
“There is no reconciliation without economic reconciliation and inclusion. First Nations are the original stewards of the land and resources and are now unfairly being barred from the modern implementation of Treaty rights and revenue sharing,” said FSIN Chief Bobby Cameron.
I am horrified to learn of the heinous murder of Paul Stanley Schmidt in Vancouver yesterday.
My heart goes out to his wife, daughter, and all who witnessed this senseless and random act of violence. #bcpoli
Climate activists don't speak for all Indigenous people.
Our communities are fully capable to decide for themselves if resource development is in our best interests.
@CBCGloria Miigwetch for having me this morning. I’m a big fan and it was an honour and a pleasure to speak with you this morning as our Nation moves forward on this important work.
Another NDP failure on economic reconciliation with First Nations, putting the interests of NDP favoured unions over the Cowichan Tribes. Premier Eby needs to scrap CBAs. #bcpoli
Will Premier Eby show leadership and not only condemn these new remarks that have come to light but also remove @routledge_janet from her role as Parliamentary Secretary for Labour?
The BC Legislature is no place for such vulgar and offensive remarks. #bcpoli
The BC NDP's discriminatory CBA regime benefits their union friends while deliberately blocking Indigenous-owned companies from working on community projects on their lands.
I wrote to the Premier asking him to stop this blatant violation of economic reconciliation. #bcpoli
BREAKING: Barbara Walters, who shattered the glass ceiling and became a dominant force in an industry once dominated by men, has died. She was 93. https://t.co/tydwREgTb2
West Vancouver is stepping away from the practice of beginning its city council meetings with an Indigenous land acknowledgment. https://t.co/foUiCvzxYU
My deepest gratitude to this country and to Mary Simon @GGCanada to be honoured among such an inspirational group of Canadians as an Officer of the Order of Canada. So proud and humbled.
Michael is right. Communication with FN leadership is real reconciliation. It’s frustrating and disappointing that Government leaders across Canada don’t get this. Recently we had a boil water advisory on lifted on our Nation by ISC, no text, no email… #cdnpoli#bcpoli#skpoli
Disappointing that David Eby's first decision as incoming Premier is to shut down the Indigenous-led 2030 Olympic Bid. For a govt. that wants to be serious about reconciliation, the least Eby can do is to tell this directly to the Host Nations - but he can't even do that. #bcpoli
