I can promise you that we will work as hard as we can to provide you with a better government that listens, that cares, and that works with you to build a better, greener, more prosperous future for you and your family.

  • Dear Minister Popham, I'm Writing to Inquire As to What the B.C
    September 8th, 2017 Hon. Lana Popham Minister of Agriculture Dr. Andrew Weaver MLA Room 325, Parliament Buildings Oak Bay-Gordon Head Victoria, BC V8V 1X4 Dear Minister Popham, I’m writing to inquire as to what the B.C. government is planning to do to promote and facilitate the transition from ocean based fish farms to land based closed containment systems. The BC NDP election platform states: We will ensure that the salmon farming industry does not endanger wild salmon by implementing the recommendations of the Cohen Commission, keeping farm sites out of important salmon migration routes, and supporting research and transparent monitoring to minimize the risk of disease transfer from captive to wild fish. Claire Trevena, the MLA for North Island and now Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure promised First Nation leaders in Alert Bay on April 23, 2017: “We will remove fish farms, we are committed to that and we can actually form government to make this happen and make sure that these territories and the North island are clear of fish farms” As you are aware, open net fish farms on the migratory paths of wild salmon have long been contentious on the British Columbia coast. Concerns exist regarding sea lice, disease, escaped non-native species, and the impact these contaminants are having on wild stocks – many of which are already significantly depleted. In recent weeks, tensions between some First Nations and operating farms has escalated in response to the salmon spill near the San Juan Islands. While action on this file is long overdue, a responsible and effective move to protect our wild salmon stocks now seems especially urgent.

  • BC Today – Daily Report April 8, 2020 Today in B.C
    BC Today – Daily Report April 8, 2020 Quotation of the day “We need to double down now.” After several days of encouraging case numbers, Health Minister Adrian Dix urges British ​ ​ Columbians to redouble their efforts to flatten the COVID-19 curve. Today in B.C. On the schedule Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry and Health Minister Adrian Dix will provide an ​ ​ ​ ​ update on B.C.’s COVID-19 cases at 3 p.m. The briefing will be livestreamed. ​ ​ Essential services, test kits and government aid: lobbying in the time of COVID-19 With the COVID-19 pandemic set to dominate the province’s attention for the foreseeable future, lobbyists and firms are seeking the government’s ear. The provincial lobbyist portal counts 35 new and recently amended registrations that include the key word “COVID-19.” Priorities include selling products and technology to aid the province’s efforts to battle the coronavirus, securing essential service designations, and keeping government officials up to speed on the impacts the pandemic is having on industries. Some company’s interests are more specific than others. Last week, Western Policy Consultants lobbyist Michael Bailey — who served as executive director to former premier Bill ​ ​ ​ Bennett — registered to lobby the health ministry on behalf of the Lynn Valley Care Centre. The ​ facility was the first long-term care centre to confirm COVID-19 cases and remains an active ​ ​ outbreak, accounting for a significant percentage of the province’s coronavirus fatalities. Bailey registered to brief health ministry officials “on the need for government assistance for ​ long-term care homes through the COVID-19 pandemic” and discuss the future of the facility’s contract and funding agreement with the province.

  • BC Veterinarians Need Your Help Combined
    Hello If you wish to help BC veterinarians address the shortage of veterinarians, you may wish to write your local MLA and ask them to support and increase to the number of BC students trained as veterinarians. Below is a sample email for you to send to your local MLA. You can also add to the email or replace it with your own. After the sample email, on page 2 and 3, is a list of all MLA email addresses to help you to find your MLA contact information. Should you wish to learn more about the shortage of veterinarians and the need for additional BC students to be trained as veterinarians, please scroll down to page 4 to read our summary document. Your help is greatly appreciated! Dear MLA, I wish to add my name to the list of British Columbians who find the shortage of veterinarians in BC unacceptable. We understand that BC can add an additional 20 BC student seats to BC’s regional veterinary college, but that the government declined to do so, citing costs. In the interest of animal health and welfare issues including relief from suffering and unnecessary death, public health, and biosecurity for BC, we ask you to ask the Minister of Advanced Education Anne Kang to fund an additional 20 BC seats at WCVM effective immediately. As a BC resident, I want my voice added as an individual who cares about the health and welfare of animals and who wishes the government to provide funding to help alleviate the shortage of veterinarians in BC.
