Xavier’s Law complements federal Bill C-14, which gives judges the ability to impose driving bans for dangerous or reckless driving that causes death or serious injury.
Together, they strengthen both prevention and accountability. This legislation is about ensuring safer roads in B.C.

Today I introduced the Motor Vehicle Amendment Act (No.2), 2025, also known as Xavier’s Law, to help prevent reckless driving tragedies in British Columbia.
Inspired by the advocacy of Xavier Rasul-Jankovics’ family.

Public safety is a top priority British Columbians, and I wish to acknowledge and commend the diligent work of our police in addressing these serious threats and ensuring the safety of our communities.

It's Disability Employment Month!Today, I visited CanAssist at UVic and met the team at CanWork BC. Their programs and innovations are breaking down barriers and creating opportunities for people with disabilities across B.C. Together, we can build a province where everyone has the chance to succeed

Today is Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) Awareness Day.
FASD is a lifelong disability but with awareness, compassion & support, individuals can thrive and lead full lives. Let’s build awareness and inclusion together.

Ran into an old friend while having lunch with MLA’s @rohiniarora.bc and @jenn.wick in the dining room at the Leg.

I had the privilege of visiting Sooke Fire Rescue and the Metchosin Fire department, both of which recently received funding through the BC CEPF.

Thank you to our incredible firefighters for their dedication and service.

Had a great lunch with members of the Truck Loggers Association today with colleagues.

Fun fact: Barry Simpson approached to inform me that he’d worked with a Lajeunesse at Jordan River in the early ‘70s. I told him that would be my dad, Bob. So, needless to say I have a new friend.

Yesterday, I had the incredible opportunity to meet with the 2025 Commonwealth Women Parliamentarians Twinning Program Indigenous Youth Interns. It was truly inspiring to hear their perspectives, ambitions, concerns.Here’s to empowering the next generation of leaders!

Yesterday, I had the honor of recognizing the life and legacy of Jube Wickheim. A cherished member of the Sooke and Shawnigan Lake communities, Jube’s impact will be remembered for years to come. His dedication, kindness, and contributions to those around him leave a lasting legacy.
