- I voted to help ensure property owners in the land claim area are supported during this process. What I voted AGAINST was the mayor's office writing another letter as, in my opinion, the last letter informing people their titles may be invalid caused confusion and distress. #RichmondBC #cdnpoli

- Our #RichmondBC mayor Malcolm Brodie has announced that he will not seek re-election. He served Richmond for a long time and it's a wonderful city to live in. Not without room for improvement, but I'd say among the best in the LM. (Perhaps I'm biased). Thank you Malcolm for years of dedication.

- I'm in tears reading this. 31 affordable units being reduced to 10 in redevelopment approved in #Surrey despite it not complying with the #housing policy of 1-1 replacment. A man and his dog remain with nowhere to go. This is how homelessness happens. pressreader.com/canada/vancouv…

- Hey #RichmondBC, your U17 Richmond Roadrunners lacrosse team is playing right now at Minoru Arena with Provincials qualifications on the line. 8:30-10pm. Great sport, come and watch!
- Great feedback from users of the Steveston multi-use pathway. I took serious abuse from some for not killing this long-time planned project. I voted with integrity and belief that #roadsareforeveryone. Paid for by TransLink and DCC's. #climatesolutions #RichmondBC www.reddit.com/r/richmondbc...

- BC Housing is underfunded. Ex. 9 acres in #RichmondBC redeveloping but with only an increase to market rental instead of affordable units tied to income. Gov land should never be used for market housing. Seniors are going to be out on the street. #bcpoli #housing globalnews.ca/news/1124025...
- The Trans Mountain pipeline (built by Trudeau, not Harper I might add) tripled the volume of oil shipping off the west coast. How is BC obligated to embrace another pipeline before building one to the East Coast? Am I missing something? #pipelines #bcpoli #cdnpoli
- Check out the creative and vibrant new Fishers Walk experience in Steveston, BC! Tourism Richmond did a great job on this and it turned out even better than I had imagined. #RichmondBC #Steveston

- The housing crisis needs family-sized purpose built rental housing and family-sized strata units. Condos for investors can't be rented out if they aren't owned by anyone. #supplyforwhom #housing globalnews.ca/news/1118681...

- Good letter by #RichmondBC resident @dickey4council.bsky.social . Lots of different thoughts about this issue.
- I feel sad for our American neighbours suffering financial loss because of their president. All of this hardship intentionally created to both sides is a tragedy. I hope most businesses can ride this unnecessary wave. #canadausrelations #smallbusiness www.delta-optimist.com/highlights/b...

- Reposted by Laura Gillanders 🇨🇦This is more important than you realize. Bluesky doesn’t downgrade links. Which means news sites will get more traffic from here than other sites. Which gives them economic reasons to post here first.

- This man, who harasses me in public places, calling me out on X because I brought up concerns about 10 people in our community OD-ing in 1 day. Also lies as I never ran with Kelly Greene for council. Faulting me for caring that ppl are dying and trying to minimize death, I'll take it. #RichmondBC
- @jasjohal.bsky.social hey Jas you are one of my go-tos for up to date news infor. I notice you mainly post on X and you haven't updated your bsky for 15 days. Many of us are over here now wondering when our ppl will start posting regularly as I don't want to reply over on X or interact on it at all.

- Congratulations to the Richmond Roadrunners U18 field lacrosse team (my son's team 😊). You worked very hard for this and made #RichmondBC proud. Farewell to the four "retiring" 07's - way to leave on a high note! #lacrosse www.richmond-news.com/local-sports...
- This young man saved the life of my friend's daughter. It's a huge deal and I wish Tony all the success in life. Congratulations on the well deserved award. #RichmondBC
