A massive and well deserved congratulations to one of my best buddies @angeloisidorou on his appointment as Principal Secretary to Premier @LDoerkson.
Angelo is one of the very best Conservative operatives in the country, and this appointment represents something huge.

The final count for the BC election has 928,019 voters choosing the Conservatives.
This is the highest vote count result for any centre right party in modern BC history and narrowly misses the record for highest modern vote count overall. 💪
Congratulations! another landslide lol glad you got reelected, well done
That time I was so stressed out, I cut bangs!
...
Well, it's a wrap! The final count is done. ✔️
I won by 43 votes this time. (Up from 40 last time around🤣)
And, yes! It was stressful.
(Ask Carling)
So a judicial recount will be ordered but, last time, it changed NOTHING at all. I feel confident that that will hold once again.
So here we go.
PS-
Don't worry, I will be figuring out the bangs thing - likely wearing them like the second photo.

It was truly an honour to be at Aberdeen Cemetery once again this year for the No Stone Left Alone ceremony.
As we approach Remembrance Day, we're reminded that the freedoms we enjoy today came at a tremendous cost.
Every headstone represents a life, a family, a story, and someone who answered the call to serve our country.
What makes this ceremony especially meaningful is seeing our younger generation take part in remembering those who came before us.
Remembrance isn't just about looking back. It's about making sure the sacrifices made for our freedoms are never forgotten by future generations.
I want to thank the organizers, volunteers, veterans, families, and especially the young people who participated in keeping this important tradition alive.
To those who served, those who continue to serve, and those who never made it home, we owe you a debt of gratitude that can never truly be repaid.
Lest we forget.

ARLO IS LOOKING FOR HIS FOREVER PERSON! ❤️
Some cats like their independence. Arlo? Not so much! This 1yr old boy is a total people guy, & he wants to be right in the middle of whatever you're doing.
He needs his people to want to have him around. 🐾

Our BC Conservative caucus is in Victoria preparing for the responsibilities of government and ensuring our MLAs are ready to serve their communities across the province.
The trust placed in us is an honour and a responsibility we take seriously. As we begin this next chapter, we carry our communities with us, grounded in service and determined to make them proud.

Two years ago, I walked into the Legislature as a newly elected MLA, unsure of what to expect. Before long, I was back in school: “MLA school.”
The Clerk, the entire Clerk’s Office and legislative staff helped us find our feet. Seeing them take our feedback and improve the experience for the next group of MLAs says so much about their dedication.
To everyone who keeps the Legislature running, from those supporting our work to those caring for the building and providing its many services: thank you. You are some of the unsung heroes of this place, and your work deserves recognition.
It has been an honour to work alongside you these past two years. I’m grateful to the people of Langley–Abbotsford for re-electing me and giving me the privilege of returning.
The first iteration of MLA School for the 44th Parliament is off to a great start! Members are being equipped with foundations to undertake their representative and employer roles. Along the way, they’re building knowledge, connections, and preparing for the work ahead. #bcpoli
Takeaways for @Conservative_BC takeaways form US election. Do what you’re elected to do but not in a ham fisted fashion. Cuts need to be considerate in best interests of the province not ham fisted or ideological. Budget accordingly not stupidly. Do what were elected to do
don’t 1 thing well, rest on your laurels and do 3 other things horribly. Lastly govern responsibly.

For those who don’t quite understand the frustration, read this.
In the last 24 hours, I’ve talked to several conservative Christians who voted for Trump twice, considered themselves lifelong Republicans, and voted blue this midterm.
Why?
Because a lot of people—especially those who have been loyal to one party for decades—don’t understand how politically homeless many of us feel.
We don’t trust the system.
We don’t feel heard.
We don’t feel represented.
We were taught that Republicans stood for conservative values, Christian principles, and financial responsibility.
Don’t spend money you don’t have. Don’t fight battles that aren’t yours. Tell the truth. Treat people with love and grace while standing firm in your convictions.
Tough love doesn’t mean mocking people. Strength doesn’t require cruelty. And having an “R” beside your name doesn’t make you faithful to any of those values.
Then we look across the aisle and see a Democratic Party that, in my view, has moved so far left on spending, government control, gender, and abortion that many longtime Democrats don’t recognize their own party either.
So where are we supposed to plant our flags?
Where is the place for people who want normal, common-sense leadership?
• Get our finances in order instead of sending money overseas while piling up debt.
• Move toward a simpler, fairer tax system.
• Solve problems in our communities instead of turning everything into a national political circus.
• Elect everyday people who understand everyday life.
• Stop rushing into wars.
• Protect children, including those in the womb.
• Tell the truth and treat people with dignity.
You don’t have to agree with every position I hold to understand the frustration.
Many of us younger conservatives aren’t abandoning our convictions. We’re questioning whether the people asking for our loyalty actually share them.
My faith comes before my party. My principles matter more than a politician. And nobody is entitled to my vote simply because the other side is worse.
If you’re confused about why people are fed up, start there.
Sincerely,
A young conservative looking for some common sense.

Well said Ms Ma
Civility deserves civility
Let’s hope @LDoerkson & yourself continue to represent people in a civil and respectful manner for the good of everyone

Does anyone want a pair of tickets to tomorrow’s #Canucks game? I want to give them to someone that rarely gets to go to a game. Bonus it’s Diwali night. I can’t go anymore and have no desire to sell them. Like this tweet if you want them and or tag someone that deserves them.

As someone on a plane weekly, this is is incredibly hilarious and relatable. Made me laugh.

Sadly some people seem compelled to politicize everything. I prefer to see the joy on kids faces when they get their treats and seeing how many polite kids there are that day Thank you. Seeing a kid happy is NOT political.
