PM Carney telling the truth isn’t embarrassing. Conservatives pretending Ottawa runs BC Ferries is. They know better — but hope Canadians don’t.
BC Ferries runs its own business. The PM’s job isn’t to indulge Conservative conspiracies. Leadership requires facts, not fiction.

Yesterday, I joined community members for an interfaith workshop on combating antisemitism at Congregation Emanu-El, the oldest surviving synagogue in Canada. Thank you to the Jewish Federation of Victoria and Vancouver Island and the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Canada for this important event.

Parliament may not be sitting, but it’s still a busy season for MPs! A highlight has been opportunities to discuss regional priorities with other B.C. Liberal MPs. One of them - MP @zoeroyer.bsky.social - was the first visitor to meet the team at our new community office!

Today is #EmancipationDay.
On August 1, 1834, slavery was abolished across the British Empire, including Canada.
We honour the strength of Black Canadians and recommit to fighting anti-Black racism and building a Canada where freedom, justice, and equality are more than words.

I had a great time today attending the Cultural & Arts Festival at the Victoria Hindu Parishad, the heart of a thriving multigenerational community.
Thanks to Rishi and the Sharma family for the invitation. The chat with JEDI Minister @dianagibson.bsky.social was an extra bonus.

It's an honour to be sworn in as the Member of Parliament for Victoria. What a thrill to have family and friends join me for the ceremony on Parliament Hill, and I am so excited to represent our incredible community in the Parliament of our extraordinary country.

Today - the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia - we stand in community with queer people everywhere, and commit to a world where all are safe, respected, and valued. Canada has been a global leader for LGBTQ2+ rights and we mean to keep it that way.

Finally, I am excited for all the Liberals elected across Canada last night, and thank everyone who put themself forward in service of our democracy.
That includes PM @mark-carney.bsky.social, who offered to serve when Canada needed him. Looking forward to getting to work, boss! 7/7

I also wish to thank the other candidates who ran in Victoria, especially Laurel Collins. As MP, @laurelcollins.bsky.social championed important initiatives on climate change and intimate partner violence. We share many values and I commit to continuing that work in Parliament. 6/

My family and friends have been endlessly supportive, and formed me along the way. I cannot express how much their love has meant to me. I wish my late mom, Sherry, my grandparents, Wilf and Peggy, and my Abuela Maria were here to see it, but I know they would be proud. 5/
