In recent years, I’ve talked to countless workers and young couples who told me they were leaving the province because they couldn’t afford to buy a home and raise a family in B.C.

National Housing Day marks a year of changes and investments by the Province to help make life more affordable for seniors, families and people around B.C, while creating tens of thousands of new jobs and supporting local economies.

When it comes to protecting farmland, the choice is obvious and the rationale is simple: the best farmland in our province should be used to grow food, not for mega-mansions and illegal garbage dumps.

When the use of B.C.’s natural resources intersects with the protection of our natural environment, British Columbians expect their government to make decisions that are transparent, responsible and, above all, in the public interest.

Recently, I introduced new legislation that will better protect thousands of people coming to work in B.C. under the federal Temporary Foreign Worker Program.

When people think of B.C.’s economy, mining, forestry, tourism and our booming tech sector are often mentioned.

Manufacturing is a key contributor to B.C.’s economic diversity and future growth.

Based on the latest data available from Statistics Canada (2016), British Columbia has the second-worst rate of poverty in Canada with 557,000 people, or 12% of the population, living in poverty.

Exports are a vital source of economic growth and job creation that help support families in every corner of B.C.
