@TimJamesMedia @steeletalk I’m surprised this wasn’t announced on local tv. We met him once at the Home Show and he was so nice.

@mapleblooded The poppy sellers take credit cards too so…

@CTVVancouver Of course this article doesn’t mention that the Harry Potter attraction in Stanley Park last year was hugely successful with most nights sold out. I’m sure the Gibson event was too.

@Anthony__Koch Does he have any actual power? Is his title not honorific?

[Opalina @tmcmanson]

@CanadaGoose911 Their rights are protected under section 35 of the constitution. Been that way for decades. DRIPA is unnecessary.

@Aaronpete_ @TheRealKeean Aaron, maybe there needs to be a new chief. You would be great! Why has Chief Phillip been in that position for 20 and has, for the most part, ran unopposed? Are others afraid to challenge him?

[Opalina @tmcmanson]

@Aaronpete_ @TheRealKeean Indigenous people’s rights are already protected under the Indian Act. We don’t need DRIPA. Maybe there needs to be a new Chief who’s willing to work with the new Premier, hmm…?

@JasJohalBC @scoopercooper Is this real?

[Opalina @tmcmanson]

@jodyvance BC Cons minority. Greens opposition. NDP barely keep enough seats to maintain official party status. 🤞🤞🤞

@dockevinmcleod @JayJanower I feel the same way. Leaving nursing in April. It’s a hard decision but I too am at my breaking point.

@Dave_Eby Why Surrey? Why doesn’t UBC deserve “skytrain at their doorstep”? Or the North Shore? Or Ladner? You’re obviously trying to buy votes.

[Opalina @tmcmanson]

@vancolour Eby’s looking more and more desperate. He’s banking on the public having no memory of what he’s done (and haven’t done) over the last 9 years. But voters need to show up.

@SteveSaretsky @vancolour Nor gen xers! No one wants to raise a family in a high rise or tiny multiplex unit. We need more duplexes and townhouses. Great for extended families and/or starter homes. Respect to West Van for resisting the provincial housing decrees.

@Dave_Eby Please stop.

[Opalina @tmcmanson]

@Dave_Eby You do remember you are a lawyer, right?…

[Opalina @tmcmanson]

@JasJohalBC Did you know that this is Doug’s 5th stint as Surrey’s mayor? You would think they’d want some new blood.

[Opalina @tmcmanson]

@vancolour Can we not all use those signs for a huge bonfire on Ambleside Beach? Seems fitting.

[Opalina @tmcmanson]

@SusieChant_nvs @Dave_Eby @bcndp Why now and not 2 years ago when the trade war started and prices began skyrocketing?

[Opalina @tmcmanson]

@ShachiKurl Thank you for all your hard work putting the debate together with such short notice. I watched it with the sound off- it was easier to stomach thst way. Nothing to do with you.
