    B.C. Today – Daily Report June 17, 2019 Quotation of the day “We need John Horgan and his government to step up and take action — any action — to help our small, forest-dependent towns get through this challenging time.” Liberal MLA Dan Davies (Peace River North) says the NDP government has not done enough ​ ​ to support forestry-dependent communities, as mills around the province continue to close and curtail production. Today in B.C. The House is adjourned for the summer recess. Committees this week The Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services is conducting public ​ consultations on Budget 2020 this week, starting with a session in Prince Rupert at the Highliner ​ Plaza Hotel and Conference Centre at 2 p.m. today.

  • 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.

  • November 26, 2020 Honourable Murray Rankin Minister of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation Parliament Buildings Victoria, Br
    November 26, 2020 Honourable Murray Rankin Minister of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation Parliament Buildings Victoria, British Columbia V8V 1X4 Dear Minister Rankin: Thank you for agreeing to serve British Columbians as Minister of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation. You are taking on this responsibility at a time when people in our province face significant challenges as a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 has turned the lives of British Columbians upside down. None of us expected to face the challenges of the past number of months, yet British Columbians have demonstrated incredible resilience, time and time again. We will get through the pandemic and its aftereffects by building on this resilience and focusing on what matters most to people. British Columbians voted for a government focused on their priorities: fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, providing better health care for people and families, delivering affordability and security in our communities, and investing in good jobs and livelihoods in a clean-energy future. I expect you – and the work of your ministry – to focus on the commitments detailed in our platform, Working for You, along with the following foundational principles: ● Putting people first: Since 2017, our government has focused on making decisions to meet people's needs. That focus drove our work in our first term and will continue to be our priority. British Columbians are counting on the government to keep them safe and to build an economic recovery that works for everyone, not just those at the top. Keeping people at the centre of everything we do means protecting and enhancing the public services people rely on and working to make life more affordable for everyone.

  • B.C. Today – Daily Report July 18, 2019 “Being In
    B.C. Today – Daily Report July 18, 2019 Quotation of the day “Being in opposition sucks.” Liberal Forests critic John Rustad prefers government to opposition. ​ ​ Today in B.C. The House is adjourned for the summer recess. Two years of the NDP: Liberal MLAs on life in opposition Two years ago today, Premier John Horgan and the NDP cabinet were sworn in as B.C.’s ​ ​ government, more than two months after the 2017 election in which the B.C. Liberal Party won a plurality of votes and seats. Despite rampant speculation that the NDP alliance with the Green Party would fail within months, there is little indication the province will be heading back to the polls any time soon. To mark the second anniversary of the swearing in, BC Today interviewed three Liberal MLAs ​ ​ — two former cabinet ministers and one who is serving his first term in provincial office — to discuss the challenges of serving in opposition. “Talk about a whirlwind.” After nearly a decade as a city councillor, Liberal Agriculture critic Ian Paton was elected to ​ ​ represent Delta South in May 2017 and was thrilled to be heading to the legislature as a member of the governing party — or so he thought. “Winning the election was pretty cool,” Paton said. “We were setting up our offices in the east wing. Then, of course, everything sort of went sideways with the Greens teaming up with the NDP and … suddenly we were in opposition.” On June 29, the Liberal government fell in a confidence vote, forced by NDP and Green Party MLAs who together held 44 seats to the Liberals’ 42.
