The BC NDP increased fossil fuel subsidies by 79% over Christy Clark’s BC Liberals. That amounts to almost $1 billion of public money. We will stop subsidies to fracked gas & other fossil fuel companies. In the climate crisis, it’s the least British Columbians could expect.

Bonus Fun Fact: They also met with @OilGasCanada 36 times. Is this what climate leadership looks like? #ClimateEmergency #bcpoli Sign here to call on our government to stop subsidizing the fossil fuel industry:

Stop government from funding climate polluters

Climate delay is the new climate denial and we're out of time. It's time our government started treating it like a crisis. Sign the @BCGreens petition to stop government funding for climate polluters.

The BC NDP claim to be climate leaders while giving $6 billion in tax cuts to the fracking industry. We won't meet our climate targets that way. BC Greens would stop funding oil and gas and transition to a sustainable economy. #bcpoli #bcelxn2020

The federal and Alberta governments have given the green light to the largest solar energy project in Canada to be built in Vulcan County. #cndpoli

Solar project approved for southern Alberta would be Canada's largest, by far | CBC News

Greengate Power CEO says the project will include 1.5 million solar panels that will provide enough energy — 400 megawatts — to power 100,000 homes.

Ten percent of new passenger vehicles sold in B.C. are zero emission vehicles! This is well ahead of the 2025 target set by the Zero Emission Vehicles Act and proves our province can be a leader in #cleanenergy . The national average is 3.5 percent.

The BC Liberals (United) broke the healthcare system, and the BC NDP have failed to fix it. We need to elect a BC Green government. It starts with electing @CCurrieadvocate in Langford-Juan de Fuca and @WendyHayko in Vancouver-Mount Pleasant on June 24.

Opinion: Fellow Canadians: Visit British Columbia at your own risk

The province is experiencing a multipronged (yet predicted) health care crisis that won’t be resolved any time soon

"We’ve done politics for so long on these short, four-year cycles, where everything is about: ‘Can I get more power in the next election?’ I think that’s wrong. We have to meet the challenge of these times in a different way.” @SoniaFurstenau #bcpoli

The 'no' side is running on fear mongering tactics, but let's fight fear with facts. #ProportionalRepresentation is simple. The percentage of votes a party receives equals the number of seats. #bcpoli

BC Liberal "fear mongering" over electoral reform takes flak

Party to argue Yes vote on proportional representation means government instability and rise of extremist groups

Real leaders put community before politics, and that is what BC Greens promise to do. This month we should have been discussing solutions and actions that would support British Columbians in the legislature, not having an unnecessary election. #bcpoli #bcelxn2020

Money laundering has ties to the worst problems facing BC, from the housing crisis to casinos and the opioid crisis. How far does this problem reach? A public inquiry will get British Columbians the answers you deserve. Learn more: #bcpoli
