Let’s clear something up about MAID in Canada.
It does not apply to children. You must be 18 or older. Mature minors do not qualify. Full stop.
It does not apply to people simply because they are poor or struggling. To be eligible, you must have a serious and incurable illness, disease or disability, be in an advanced state of irreversible decline, and be experiencing intolerable suffering that cannot be relieved in any way you find acceptable. Financial hardship alone is not a criterion.
It is not a rubber stamp. Approval requires assessments by two independent practitioners who review your medical records and confirm you have seriously considered available treatment options. When death is not reasonably foreseeable, a minimum 90-day assessment period is required.
People whose only medical condition is a mental illness are not currently eligible either, that eligibility has been postponed to March 2027 while further safeguards are studied.
You can have moral or religious objections to assisted dying. That is a legitimate position held by a lot of Canadians. But spreading misinformation about what the law actually says is not an argument. It is just fearmongering. Know wtf you are talking about before you talk about it.

@anitahuberman The campaign had several 'leaders' - the prime one was Ivan Scott.

Oh my goodness. My condolences to his family. Paul led the amazing save the RCMP in Surrey campaign. He believed in Surrey and gave up much of his free time for a worthy cause.

I am saddened to report that I recently learned of the death of Paul Daynes.

PERSONAL: @PeterMilobar slams @KerryLynneFindl for insinuating that he has a conflict of interest for having an Indigenous wife.

@KerryLynneFindl Who wants federal style politics in B.C. led by Harper & Poilievre's sycophant? Raise your hand.

David Eby’s government is a disaster for the hard-working men and women of British Columbia.
He does not have a vision that benefits all British Columbians. British Columbians are tired of lofty words and empty promises. They are tired of policies that hurt people.
We now have 200,000 people using food banks every month. This affordability crisis is real, and threatening people’s biggest asset, their home, is extremely serious.
This is exactly why we need common-sense leadership that actually does the job and puts British Columbians first.

@IngrahamAngle You, Laura, probably can't even point out Europe on a map of the world.

Apparently Canada intends to become a province of Europe.

Canadian PM Mark Carney: It’s my strong personal view that the international order will be rebuilt — but it will be rebuilt out of Europe.

@LindaAnnisBC at it again blaming Brenda Locke @MayorLocke for all that is wrong with @surreyps Surrey Police which is now in its 8th yr. of transitioning with still not enuf cops & rising extortion instances.
English

@LindaAnnisBC blaming Mayor Locke for many issues is negative, corrosive, campaigning—more aligned with mudslinging & character attacks than constructive leadership. This approach doesn’t demonstrate accountability or forward-looking problem-solving people expect from a leader.

Watching Live Conservative Debate in B.C. @KerryLynneFindl is flapping lovely long eyelashes citing Freedom Convoy as if it was a good thing. Comments?

You hate Mark Carney because he’s a Liberal. Fine.
But I keep hearing “he’s done nothing” from people who can’t name a single policy. So here are the receipts from his first 12 months:
1 - Killed the consumer carbon tax. Gone on day one.
2 - Scrapped the EV mandate. Replaced it with a $5,000 rebate and choice.
3 - Reversed the capital gains tax hike.
4 - Passed the One Canadian Economy Act (C-5) to tear down interprovincial trade barriers.
5 - Cut 40,000 federal jobs with a plan to actually shrink government.
6 - Slashed immigration targets to match housing and infrastructure capacity.
7 - Hit NATO’s 2% target with $82B in new defence spending.
8 - Launched Build Canada Homes + a Major Projects Office fast-tracking 20+ projects.
9 - 26 international trips, China canola tariffs reduced, $97B in foreign investment secured.
Read it again: carbon tax gone. EV mandate gone. capital gains reversed. immigration down. defence up. trade barriers down. government trimmed.
You don’t have to like him. You don’t have to vote for him.
But saying “he’s done nothing” after that list isn’t analysis, it’s selective memory.

@harryt59_harry @0CynicalBastard I was there. Beyond the pale. Also heard some Conservative MPs are grateful @KerryLynneFindl is no longer there. Imagine, her own party members!

@CityNewsVAN Looks like the folks behind him are rolling their eyes. LOL

@jamiljivani Au contraire- it's your values that are scary 😨
English

Every time there is a floor-crossing, Carney and the Liberals will try to make it about anything but the truth: this is a battle between Carney-style cynicism versus those who believe politics should be about upholding sincere principles and values.

@TremorOutdoors @KerryLynneFindl Tremor: I am citing Fed Election of 2025. U are referring to the election of 2021. Check your facts and reconsider your statement about me not having 'class'. I am not misleading anyone. Not attending in 2025 was not my loss at all - it resulted in a big loss for

@captainramona @KerryLynneFindl When you treat people with zero class after they were physically injured and needed medical attention - you don't deserve a second chance to interact with them! Her not attending your future debates was your own fault and your loss! Stop misleading the public!
English

I welcome the opportunity to stand on that stage at the Juno News debate and face voters directly. Canada was built on courage, accountability, and the willingness to stand in the open and be judged on your words. That expectation still stands. I will be there, ready to defend my convictions without hesitation, because when it’s time to lead, the country sees exactly who was there to answer the call.

@TremorOutdoors @KerryLynneFindl The 2021 debate was not mine; it was organized by several seniors’ groups. Could you please specify how I was allegedly derogatory toward her regarding her injury? Also, please note Ms. Findlay presented me with a Queen's Platinum Jubilee Medal in 2022.
English

@captainramona @KerryLynneFindl Try telling the entire story Ramona instead of your half truths! @KerryLynneFindl was to attend your debate in 2021, fell on stairs & required medical attention at the hospital. You were derrogatory to her about it and as such, KLF said she would not attend your events going fwd!

@AndrewRebane1 @KerryLynneFindl She does not always show up.
