I am proud to be the independent MLA for Penticton-Summerland, my hometown and the jewel of BC. Also, I am a reporter now.





@amboultbee Have you chosen this position after consulting your constituents — especially Jewish constituents?



To call it “anti-Semitic” when a body rightfully moves to divest financial support from a political regime that is currently committing genocide and war crimes, is intellectually lazy, wrong, and ignorant. All Canadians should support divesting financially from Israel at this time. I support the Jewish community and Jewish people everywhere. I want synagogues to be safe, everywhere. A political regime and its policies, are not synonymous with the Jewish people. It is very dishonest for the @BCConservCaucus to be calling divestment from Israel anti-Semitic. Canada has a proud history of opposing war crimes, genocide, and military regimes such as this. I support the B.C. Teacher’s Union in their motion, and call on all B.C. and Canadian bodies to boycott, divest and sanction the state of Israel. #bcpoli
