I really respect @JohnRustad4BC and @AngeloIsidorou and CPCBC'S President (Sorry don't know the name) for their communications about respecting democracy recently. That's a resolute expression of integrity. If only we could get folks to stop calling their fellow citizens dumb... – at Ottawa, Ontario

Ladies and gentlemen - meet the MLA who could turn the tide for the B.C. Conservatives. Said on Thursday that “90 per cent of Indigenous people use drugs” after calling them “savages.” #bcpoli vancouversun.com/news/local-…

The scene as Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre makes his first in-person speech at the Assembly of First Nations. Some veterans and delegates quietly turn their back as he tries to reset the relationship with the AFN. – at Montréal, Québec

Hello @AceBooksPub, any chance on a trade paperback of @GreatDismal's Mona Lisa Overdrive? I dig the size of these trades over the mass paperback. (Hoping to stack my own FLL with the good stuff...) – at Nanaimo G, British Columbia

This closure puts further urgency in working to improve the economics of the sector for the benefit of everyone involved: the workers, the Alberni Valley and the Region as a whole. Our thoughts are with the workers and their families that will be impacted by this decision. 1/2

We are all learning some difficult truths, particularly today, and mistakes can happens. The Indigenous people in this picture are Inuit, not Algonquin, wearing Inuit traditional clothing, including Elder Manitok Thompson, who is very well known. #cdnpoli
Honoured to join the Algonquin Elders and leaders at the eternal flame to mark National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. The path of truth and reconciliation is long but together we can begin to mend what has been broken and find true healing.

I ended up doing a segment on All Points West with Jason D'Souza on Sept. 12th regarding @HuuayahtFN releasing an interim report for new old-growth management our territory. It's about 11 minutes. cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-9…

Bamfield and @HuuayahtFN residents have only ever had a gravel industrial road in and out of their communities. Yesterday I got my first taste of the upgrades to the #Bamfield Road - they’re a game changer for safety, reliability, & economic development. (1/2)
