Protecting students is non-negotiable. Every child deserves a classroom where they are #safe, #respected & #welcomed, & we will fight for that every day.

Rustad’s handpicked candidates who are now in #OneBC continue to spread fear & division, putting vulnerable students at risk.

These teachers are heroes. Thank you to the teachers of Acwsalcta School in Bella Coola. Their quick actions in the face of a grizzly bear attack saved a school group on Thursday. It could have been so much worse without their bravery.

Today marks one year since we lost our friend, John Horgan.

Over the past year, we’ve been able to honour his legacy with the opening of the John Horgan Campus in his beloved community of Langford. It’s a reminder of a lifetime devoted to public service and building a better BC and Canada.

As minister of education, as a parent, & former school trustee, the safety and well-being of our students is my number one priority.

Last week I met April through the @BCFPA. April has been a long-time foster caregiver in BC alongside her partner. This conversation was so rich and insightful – it made it hard to narrow down the moments to share!

If you’re seriously ill or injured, you shouldn’t have to worry about taking time off to get the treatment you need.

We’re introducing 27 weeks of unpaid, job-protected medical leave, so you can have peace of mind knowing your job is safe while you recover.
