Best seat in the house at Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park in Coldstream. Grateful for the lands of the Syilx.

BC voted years ago to get rid of time change. Let's do it. @davidebybc.bsky.social @harwindersandhu.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

My MLA has left the BC Conservatives. Not sure what that means for representation? @juliapayson.bsky.social @madamefab.bsky.social @kellisullivan.bsky.social @tyolsen.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

It will be interesting to see if John Rustad faces any party pushback for a move that couldn't be avoided. @richardzussman.bsky.social @jasjohal.bsky.social @tyolsen.bsky.social @jodyvance.bsky.social @conservativebc.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The uncertainty continues. #tariffs #canada

Hey @davidebybc.bsky.social , it's time to open up BC liquor stores to BC distilleries. @ravikahlon.bsky.social @harwindersandhu.bsky.social globalnews.ca/video/110703...

A sign of the times in #vernonbc as businesses and residents rally behind Canada. @kellisullivan.bsky.social @kellyfehr.bsky.social @jodyvance.bsky.social @chriswalkercbc.bsky.social @juliapayson.bsky.social #Canada #canadaisnotforsale

Hey Donald Trump, ridiculing other nations is tacky. I have heard of Lesotho. Buy an atlas. #lesotho #Trump @cnn.com @nytimes.com @sfutterman.bsky.social

Why just red state booze @davidebybc.bsky.social and @ravikahlon.bsky.social ? Ban all US liquor. These tariffs are coming from a nation, not individual states. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @jodyvance.bsky.social @richardzussman.bsky.social @chriswalkercbc.bsky.social

Canada can survive what's thrown at it. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @michellegarner.bsky.social @melaniejoly.bsky.social @jagmeetsingh.ca @conservativebc.bsky.social

Maybe Trump should listen to Warren Buffet. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @melaniejoly.bsky.social @michellegarner.bsky.social @conservativebc.bsky.social www.cnn.com/2025/03/03/b...

@madamefab.bsky.social Great to see you today

Opening weekend at the Brier in Kelowna is a wrap. Thank you to everyone involved. I will now follow from home. @thecurlingnews.bsky.social @tourismkelowna.bsky.social #curling #Okanagan

Making friends with Slider at the Brier in Kelowna. @thecurlingnews.bsky.social #curling #Brier2025 #Okanagan

Team Nunavut is great. Cheering them on at the Brier. @thecurlingnews.bsky.social @govofnunavut.bsky.social #curling #nunavut

It was amazing to sing O Canada at the Brier. @thecurlingnews.bsky.social #canadastrong #brier

Canada continues to stand with the Ukraine. Ukraine, not the US or Russia, must determine its future. @melaniejoly.bsky.social @jagmeetsingh.ca @michellegarner.bsky.social #Ukraine

Hey Google, let's play the name game.

Hey National Defence, you have a responsibility to clean up Kal Lake Provincial Park. #coldstreambc www.castanet.net/news/Vernon/...

Who at the NHL thought this was a good idea? Complete disrespect for Canada. #canadastrong torontosun.com/sports/hocke...

Hey Trump and Google, here is the truth when changing names.

Skating at Kal Beach in #Coldstreambc. Make sure the ice is safe. @peterquinlan.bsky.social

It's the 60th birthday of the Canadian flag and it's a symbol of a strong and independent nation that can withstand anything thrown at it. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @melaniejoly.bsky.social @ravikahlon.bsky.social @michellegarner.bsky.social @jagmeetsingh.ca @chriswalkercbc.bsky.social #canada

Wave the flag #canada www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

I am boycotting the Super Bowl over tariff talk. I never watch it but now there's a reason. @jodyvance.bsky.social @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @rosiebarton.bsky.social @chriswalkercbc.bsky.social

We need free trade with the provinces and strong relations with Europe, Latin America and Asia. Canada can do this. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @ravikahlon.bsky.social @maryng.bsky.social @michellegarner.bsky.social @johnibbitson.bsky.social @ianhanomansing.bsky.social @hilltimes.com

Invasive mussels threaten BCs economy and ecology. @randeneneillmlabc.bsky.social act now. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @davidebybc.bsky.social @conservativebc.bsky.social @bcwildlifefed.bsky.social www.similkameenspotlight.com/local-news/o...

Hey @davidebybc.bsky.social and @ravikahlon.bsky.social , you need to do more to support BC distilleries. Reduce the red tape. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @conservativebc.bsky.social infotel.ca/newsitem/oka...

A necessary move but Trump now knows Canada will blink when he threatens economic chaos. Will he threaten tariffs every time he wants something? @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @davidebybc.bsky.social @melaniejoly.bsky.social @jagmeetsingh.ca @conservativebc.bsky.social @johnibbitson.bsky.social

If you like Bourbon but support Canadian products, Vernon's OkanaganSpirits can help. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @ravikahlon.bsky.social @maryng.bsky.social @conservativebc.bsky.social @jodyvance.bsky.social @cbcstephenquinn.bsky.social @ctvnewsvancouver.bsky.social @chriswalkercbc.bsky.social

I want my elected leaders to not play political games and to work together through the US tarrifs. BC and Canada must be united. @conservativebc.bsky.social @ravikahlon.bsky.social @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @melaniejoly.bsky.social @jagmeetsingh.ca @michellegarner.bsky.social

And the apparent Okanagan newscast still uses Vancouver photos for a backdrop. Corus Entertainment is ignoring local. @crtceng.bsky.social @globalnews.ca @harwindersandhu.bsky.social #okanagan #Okanaganignored

Hey Justin Trudeau, get Parliament back to work to tackle the trade threat. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @davidebybc.bsky.social @yfblanchet.bsky.social @jagmeetsingh.ca @melaniejoly.bsky.social @johnibbitson.bsky.social youtube.com/shorts/vfkuH...

The $5-million in provincial funds for Okanagan orchardists to purchase equipment is great but there still needs to be a focus on marketing and processing. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @lanapopham.bsky.social vernonmatters.ca/2025/01/30/n...

Good Morning from #coldstreambc and the lands of the #Syilx @peterquinlan.bsky.social

I may be naive but an all party response would serve BC best. Let's work together. @ravikahlon.bsky.social @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @bcgreencaucus.bsky.social @conservativebc.bsky.social @jodyvance.bsky.social @richardzussman.bsky.social @jasjohal.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Hate has no place in our society. #Islamophobia #quebeccity

We can never forget

Hey @davidebybc.bsky.social, there needs to be a second bridge so the Okanagan doesn't grind to a halt. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social www.castanet.net/news/Kelowna...

The Annual Outhouse Races in #lumbybc were awesome. What a great community. @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @genacton.bsky.social ##northokanagan

It was an exciting service at Trinity United Church as we became an Affirming congregation. We open our hearts to everyone and particularly those often marginalized. #vernonbc #loveislove @revviec.bsky.social @unitedchurchcda.bsky.social @kellyfehr.bsky.social @broadviewmedia.bsky.social

The cedar stands along BX Creek are beautiful. #vernonbc #northokanagan @peterquinlan.bsky.social #syilx

What a wonderful message of love and inclusion. @unitedchurchcda.bsky.social @broadviewmedia.bsky.social @harwindersandhu.bsky.social @juliapayson.bsky.social #love #inclusion #welcome #vernonbc #unitedchurchofcanada

Many Canadian conservative politicians are taking a passive approach to Trump's trade threats and don't want to fight back. Would they take the same approach if the president making trade threats was a Democrat? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The Okanagan Rail Trail is beautiful. Grateful for the lands of the Syilx. #coldstreambc #northokanagan

No surprise given that BC Unied abandoned candidates. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
