There's often plenty of fireworks, quite a bit of humour, and it's the public venue for holding the government to account. Almost invariably, the theatrics of question period overshadow the more pedestrian statements delivered by MLAs. Those who shine in question period, like former finance minister Mike de Jong or Solicitor General Mike Farworth, often show up on the television screen at night. But whenever I read Hansard, which is the official record of legislature debates, I'm often attracted to transcripts of the MLA statements in advance of question period. They usually come from members who are either on the government backbenches or the opposition side of the house. These are not legislators who collect a big cabinet salary. And they often focus on activities taking place in their constituencies that I didn't know about—or an issue they're passionate about. One such speech last year revealed that Burnaby–Deer Lake NDP MLA Anne Kang has struggled with stuttering. Yet she was able to overcome this to get elected to the legislature, and she wants to end the stigma for other stutterers. Many years ago, then Vancouver-Kensington NDP MLA David Chudnovsky gave a short yet memorable speech on the impact of the Holocaust on the families of him and his wife, Ruth Herman. This morning, rather than report on what took place in question period, I've decided to reproduce six of those MLA statements from yesterday's afternoon sitting. Think of it as an alternative to the sturm and drang of B.C. politics. https://www.straight.com/news/1059131/mlas-statements-legislature-rarely-attract-much-attention-question-period-they-can-be 2/10 4/17/2018 MLAs' statements in legislature rarely attract as much attention as question period, but they can be informative | Georgia Straight Vancouver's New… EVENTS GUIDES GOLDEN PLATES NEWS MUSIC ARTS LIFE MOVIES FOOD CANNABIS CONFESSIONS I SAW YOU BEST OF VANCOUVER CONTESTS C Ravi Kahlon (NDP, Delta North) "I'm pleased to speak about B.C. Construction and Skilled Trades Month. Welcome to the representatives of B.C. Construction Association and extension, the more than 24,000 businesses that work in B.C.'s industrial, commercial and institutional construction sectors. We value the work that you do and the significant role that businesses play in the economic health of our province. "There is a need to raise awareness of the important work done by B.C.'s construction workforce, as stated in the Construction and Skilled Trades Month proclamation and supported by the appearance in the House today. Our builders are the stewards of our built environment and crucial contributors to our economy. "B.C.'s construction sector is larger than forestry, mining and fishing industries combined. Currently there are projects underway valued at more than $75 billion. Ninety percent of B.C.'s construction employers are small companies with less than 20 employees. Collectively, these companies contribute 8.6 percent of our provincial GDP. The average hourly wage in construction is $32, significantly above minimum wage and $2 above the Canadian average. "The construction sector is booming in our province. There will be over 59,000 job openings in construction by 2027. Where will those workers come from? Women comprise only 7.8 percent of the construction workforce. It will take commitment and effort to bring today's youth and equity-seeking groups into trades, and as the construction month proclamation states, that effort must begin with showing that respect is due and given to the tradespeople of our province and that trades careers are rewarding and valued. "Success relies on building communities, not just building structures. I am pleased to see BCCA leading the way to join government, academia, science and technology to work together to build strong communities for B.C.'s future and expand the industry's profile in B.C. This approach is crucial to our success, to today's success and tomorrow's." https://www.straight.com/news/1059131/mlas-statements-legislature-rarely-attract-much-attention-question-period-they-can-be 3/10 4/17/2018 MLAs' statements in legislature rarely attract as much attention as question period, but they can be informative | Georgia Straight Vancouver's New… EVENTS GUIDES GOLDEN PLATES NEWS MUSIC ARTS LIFE MOVIES FOOD CANNABIS CONFESSIONS I SAW YOU BEST OF VANCOUVER CONTESTS C Laurie Throness (B.C. Liberal, Chilliwack-Kent) "Years ago I visited Jeremy Bentham. He sits in a glass case at royal university, London, where he has been for 186 years. He was an odd man, as you might imagine of one who wills that his body be preserved in this way. One of his more curious proposals was the panopticon, or all-seeing place, a circular prison with tiered cells around the outer walls. A high tower in the centre would shine a bright light in the cells and, behind it, a prison inspector able to look into every corner of every cell. Because they would never know when they were being watched, prisoners would always be sure to behave. "Fast forward to the present day, where China has installed 20 million public cameras and facial recognition software so accurate that the government boasted last weekend that it detected a criminal suspect in a football stadium among 60,000 fans. "In these days of rapidly advancing technology, the possibilities of electronic surveillance are endless. That's why we're not allowed to smile when we get our pictures taken for our drivers' licences, so facial recognition can catch the bad guys. "That's great for criminal justice, and one might say, 'If you're innocent, you have nothing to fear,' but such powerful electronic tools can also be used for social control. Think Facebook data affecting elections, Russian bots manipulating Twitter or this: China plans to assign each of its citizens a social score based on their friendliness to the government. They will be able to track friends and enemies alike at all times in a total surveillance society." https://www.straight.com/news/1059131/mlas-statements-legislature-rarely-attract-much-attention-question-period-they-can-be 4/10 4/17/2018 MLAs' statements in legislature rarely attract as much attention as question period, but they can be informative | Georgia Straight Vancouver's New… EVENTS GUIDES GOLDEN PLATES NEWS MUSIC ARTS LIFE MOVIES FOOD CANNABIS CONFESSIONS I SAW YOU BEST OF VANCOUVER CONTESTS C Mitzi Dean (NDP, Esquimalt-Metchosin) "There is an epidemic in our province, a public health issue that is not new. It affects all ages, and its impact extends beyond the individual to especially hurt children, to cause loss of productivity in businesses and affect our economy. It significantly increases our health care costs at all stages—emergency services, chronic illness and counselling, for example. And it can be more pernicious among more disadvantaged populations, such as Indigenous and transgender women. "Every year, there are fatalities—preventable and unnecessary deaths, in our modern society, causing lifelong grief. Those who suffer are not alone. Each year it affects 20,000 women in B.C. "What am I talking about? Violence against women. Fifty percent of women in Canada have experienced sexual or physical violence. "I'm proud that April 15-21 marks Prevention of Violence Against Women Week in B.C. It's a time to recognize the devastating effects of violence, including sexual violence, on women, families and our communities, as well as the incredible efforts of local and provincial organizations in supporting victims. "It is time to raise awareness of this issue and mobilize our resources to build prevention, protection and recovery from such an enduring and harmful issue. As the Ending Violence Association of B.C. report of 2012 said: 'We know what needs to be done. The challenge is to do it.' "This week, I ask of everyone to consider how you can help—whether it's someone in your life or a local organization in your community—to prevent violence and to ensure safe spaces for those escaping violence and healing opportunities for survivors." https://www.straight.com/news/1059131/mlas-statements-legislature-rarely-attract-much-attention-question-period-they-can-be 5/10 4/17/2018 MLAs' statements in legislature rarely attract as much attention as question period, but they can be informative | Georgia Straight Vancouver's New… EVENTS GUIDES GOLDEN PLATES NEWS MUSIC ARTS LIFE MOVIES FOOD CANNABIS CONFESSIONS I SAW YOU BEST OF VANCOUVER CONTESTS C Ben Stewart (B.C.

    A HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION FOR THE 21ST CENTURY: British Columbians talk about Human Rights A report and recommendations to the Attorney General of British Columbia “Indigenous peoples don’t have control to do what they need to do to prosper. To build infrastructure, schools, hospitals and police stations — to make their communities rich and have what other cities have.” — Juanita Coltman (Squli’qwana), participant at the Indigenous Peoples Workshop held in Vancouver “I am a Person with Disability (PWD) as defined by both the provincial as well as the federal legislation and survive on PWD and CPP Disability Benefits. This situation has resulted because of an accident. I am a highly educated and well- informed person. I am trying to stand up on my feet again to support myself, my family and my community. However, at every step the discrimination takes place as people instead of recognizing my strengths and potential, recognize my disability and refuse to accept me and it is acting as a stumbling block in my rehabilitation and success and there is no law to take action against them and correct this position. It is disheartening.” — Ashfaq “I grew up in a white, hard-working family with biases. Biases against people with non-white skin, non-heterosexual, non- Christian, etc. — basically anyone that wasn’t like us. Differences in socio-economics were always attributed to the personal failings of the individual, rather than anything systemic, and certainly nothing we had any responsibility for. I feel very fortunate that I had the opportunity to go to university and learn about all the systemic factors that contribute — and often dictate — a person’s position in life.

    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. Committee members will also visit Kitimat, Prince George, Fort St. John and Quesnel before heading back to the Lower Mainland for a consultation in Abbotsford on Thursday. The consultation period ends on June 28. Mill closures and curtailments lead to political jousting As announcements of mill closures and curtailments pile up, the opposition B.C. Liberals are calling on the NDP government to slash stumpage rates and reduce the carbon tax for the province’s forestry sector. “To date, the John Horgan government has thrown up its hands and told forest-dependent ​ ​ communities there is nothing it can do to help them,” Liberal Leader Andrew Wilkinson said in ​ ​ a statement, released in tandem with a letter addressed to the premier last week. “This is failed leadership on the part of John Horgan — plain and simple.

  • 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.

    Escape into Nature: the Ideology of Pacific Spirit Regional Park by Marina J. La Salle M.A., The University of British Columbia, 2008 B.A., Simon Fraser University, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Anthropology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) July 2014 © Marina La Salle, 2014 ABSTRACT This dissertation investigates the ideology of Pacific Spirit Regional Park, an urban forest adjacent to the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. Using the tools of archaeology and anthropology, I analyse the history, landscape, performance, and discourse of the park to understand Pacific Spirit as a culturally-constructed place that embodies an ideology of imperialism. Central in this dynamic is the carefully crafted illusion of Pacific Spirit as a site of “nature,” placed in opposition to “culture,” which naturalizes the values that created and are communicated through the park and thereby neutralizes their politics. They remain, however, very political. The park as nature erases the history and heritage of the Indigenous peoples of this region, transforming Pacific Spirit into a new terra nullius—a site to be discovered and explored, militaristic themes that consistently underlie park programs and propaganda. These cultural tropes connect to produce a nationalistic settler narrative wherein class ideals of nature and community are evoked in the celebration of Canada’s history of colonialism and capitalist expansion—paradoxically, the very processes that have caused the fragmentation of communities and ecosystems. The park as nature also feeds into the portrayal of this space as having been saved from development and, as such, an environmental triumph.

    BC Today – Daily Report November 27, 2019 Quotation of the day “This investigation demonstrates that we need to have tougher regulation to ensure that Canadians … have trust and confidence in their political campaigning system at the heart of our democracy.” Federal privacy commissioner Daniel Therrien says millions of British Columbians and Canadians ​ ​ were illegally micro-targeted online by political parties thanks to information garnered by AggregateIQ. Today in B.C. On the schedule The house will convene at 1:30 p.m. for question period. The government will hold its weekly cabinet meeting in the morning. Tuesday’s debates and proceedings Assistant deputy Speaker Joan Isaacs put forward private member’s bill M230, High Dose ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Influenza Vaccine for Seniors Act, which would make high-dose flu vaccines free for seniors and ensure those living in long-term care homes have access. Isaacs introduced a similar bill in October 2018. Bill 42, Fuel Price Transparency Act, which, if passed, will allow the B.C. Utilities Commission to ​ collect corporate information related to fuel pricing, received second reading and was referred to committee. Bill 41, the UNDRIP bill, passed committee stage in the late afternoon and it was immediately ​ granted third reading with unanimous support, making B.C. the first province in Canada to pass legislation implementing the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. At the legislature Representatives from two Vancouver business associations — the Marpole Business Improvement Association and the Kitsilano West 4th Business Improvement Association — were at the legislature to draw attention to “skyrocketing property taxes and potential solutions to provide them with some relief.” Finance minister further reduces surplus but says B.C.

    March 3, 2014 Hon. Michael de Jong Minister of Finance Room 153, Parliament Buildings Victoria, BC V8V 1X4 Via Email Dear Minister de Jong: On behalf of the 18,000 businesses operating in the tourism industry, the Tourism Industry Association of BC urges government to fulfill its commitment to our rural resort owners to modernize the Tourism Accommodation (Assessment Relief) Act to reflect increased property values. It’s no secret that rural resort property taxes have increased so significantly over the past number of years that many of these operators have had to face closure. For those who have remained opened, the substantial tax burden has prevented them from being able to re-invest back in their business, impacting their ability to provide an exceptional experience for their guests. Our partner, the BC Lodging and Campgrounds Association has been communicating with government over the past decade about the declining viability of rural tourism accommodations. One major factor is the affect Class 6 property taxes is having on the survival of rural resorts, largely caused by increasing property assessment values and the shrink back of the general rural Class 6 business population in affected rural areas. At UBCM in 2012 a resolution was passed calling on the provincial government to address this issue and make changes. Following the passing of the resolution, the Minister of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training and Minister Responsible for Labour responded: “The Province recognizes that high property assessments for rural tourism resorts have resulted in a tax burden for these businesses. In response to calls for Provincial Government assistance with this issue, the Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training will work with the Ministry of Finance, the BC Assessment Authority and the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development to look at options to amend the Tourist Accommodation (Assessment Relief) Act with the UBCM’s recommendations, and to support this sector.” Page 2 Page 2 Hon.
