Fashion is the art we wear, and journalism is the art of communicating how we as citizens live - this fundraiser brings both of those things together. I also extend my appreciation to all who came out to support – everyone who cares about local art is precious. Thank you!

I would like to thank the designers, organizers, and participants in the fundraiser. Local artists and industry are supported by on-the-ground work of local journalists, who care about the art and creativity happening in their home communities.

We continue our work to end gender-based violence and support survivors. For those who have been harmed by violence and for the families of those who have been murdered or harmed, we will not forget you, we will not abandon you, and we will not stop until there is justice, safety and healing for all

We’re improving how the justice system responds to survivors, expanding crisis supports, and investing in prevention and culturally safe, Indigenous-led solutions. Allowing people to access help faster, feel safer, and get the help and healing they deserve.

What you can do:
- Speak up if you notice signs of gender-based violence.
- Offer support without judgment.
- Create safety in your relationships by ensuring equity and respect with those in your life.
- stay informed by learning more about gender-based violence prevention.

DASH uses modern building methods, such as prefabricated parts and standardized designs, to speed up the process and reduce expenses. It will also help builders access B.C.-made materials from throughout the province, adding jobs and helping build homes that are driving B.C.’s prosperity.

A new online platform called DASH, Digitally Accelerated Standardized Housing, is helping developers and non-profit organizations design and construct three- to six-storey buildings more quickly and at lower cost using products manufactured in B.C.

Transgender Day of Remembrance is a time to mourn and a time to affirm every person’s right to be who they are, without fear or stigma.

It was wonderful to join with friends and colleagues to mark the occasion and celebrate Korean heritage this week at the legislature.

From music, to dance, to history, and, Dave’s favourite, incredible cuisine; a big thank you to all those who came to share in the richness of Korean culture.

Access to menstrual health is a right, not a privilege—and we’re committed to breaking barriers and ending stigma. Proud to stand alongside the Premier as we work toward equity for all. 🌸

Thank you Sue!

And beginning January 1, 2026, couples where one partner is receiving disability assistance, will also benefit from an increased annual earnings exemption, allowing them to keep more of the money they earn.

I am grateful to the self-advocates who led the call for this change.

To help people feel safe, welcome, and included, we are changing the spousal rule. Starting December 1, 2025, all couples receiving disability assistance will receive the same support allowance as they would if they were two single people.
