Today we announced our BC Energy Superpower Plan, a common sense solution to unlock the potential of our great province. BC’s abundant natural gas reserves will transform our economy and unleash jobs for BC workers. We have what the world needs, and the Conservative Party of BC is ready to deliver it.

This guy seems like the kind of person that is unable to understand that powerful tools need to be used AND be used well. Don’t be like this guy.

29 days to go. We’re proud of what we’ve built together, and your support is helping us keep Vancouver focused on public safety, affordability and moving forward. As of September 18th: ☑️ 67,285 doors knocked since July 1 ☑️ 1,147 lawn signs dispatched this month ☑️ Approximately 3.6 million digital views ☑️ 308 events attended, including 17 pop-ups since May 1 ☑️ 80 meet & greets organized ☑️ More than $2,068,440 raised from 4,009 donors since January 1 Vancouver has just started making the change we all want. Now it’s important that we don’t go back, but continue the work for real change. On October 17th, Vancouverites will also have a direct say on public safety through two plebiscite questions addressing open-air hard drug use in public spaces and secure medical treatment for people experiencing severe mental health and substance-use disorders. This is a fight for the soul of our city. 29 days to go. Let’s keep Vancouver moving forward. #ABCVancouver #PublicSafety #Affordability

Nice little FID from CPP Investment’s wholly owned midstream company, Wolfstream, to expand its NGL North system in Alberta carrying natural gas liquids (NGL) for use in domestic and international markets. It will absolutely benefit from yesterday’s mega-deduction tax cut. The expansion will add approximately 0.6 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of natural gas processing to the NGL North System and includes a natural gas-fired cogeneration facility, expanded de-ethanization capacity and an expanded unit-train rail terminal at Wolf Feedstock Separation.

Canada handed 300 of the world's biggest investors a 66-page pitchbook this week ▪️167 projects worth about US$425 billion ▪️63 of them are MINES That's more than the clean energy, oil and gas, and data-centre chapters combined.

Yesterday we celebrated the traditions and friendships that make Vancouver College so special. From those who were here decades ago, to the new generation making their own memories today, we are all connected by a unique brotherhood. Homecoming 2026 our best ever. VC Alumni

By far the best strategy for Canada is, and has always been to win by helping America win. The best way is to be strong, sovereign, hard-working and deeply competent. Ideally with an uncanny ability to start ambitious infrastructure projects and finish them on budget and on time. Shout-out to our nuclear energy sector for nailing that. Do that and every other problem melts away. Europe, and everyone else, will be happy trading partners.

Great having Mayor Ken Sim out yesterday for the coin toss to start the annual homecoming game at Vancouver College. This annual event is a huge one that the VC Alumni Association puts on each year. @VCAlumni @vcfootball

What a day! #homecoming

🔥 A+ response from Liberal Energy Minister Hodgson on how the federal government justifies expanding Canadian oil & gas production; Alberta Energy Minister Brian Jean beaming in the background. "In the world we need to live in - not in a magical world - in the world as it is not as we wish it to be, this is the most productive way to be a clean and conventional energy superpower and it makes complete sense to do that."

Brilliant response from Canada’s energy minster. We have a lot of work to undo the past decade of mistakes and false narratives.

David Eby is running an increasingly unserious government.

Canada's Exports to the U.S. are more than 10 times those of the E.U.

I know some of you will be haters. But here is the Liberal Energy Minister in Fort Mac touting the exceptional nature of the Canadian oil sands and none of us 18 months ago would ever have believed this could happen. This is to be applauded.

And now Canada’s second largest oil producer, Cenovus, joins the party with an all time high today! Up 👀 92% YTD

Oil and gas keeping the rest of the country afloat.

Regret the tone of my post on data centers yesterday. What I should have said: There were reasonable concerns about data centers 18ish months ago: water, taxes, jobs, electricity prices, the environment and what they would do to small towns. Well-structured data center projects have largely addressed these concerns today and we should be celebrating this. On balance, data centers are awesome for America in every way. On water: U.S. data centers use a fraction of what golf courses use. A lot of the numbers from 18 months ago were off by over 1000x. Newer data centers use closed-loop systems or recycled water. Should be required by every town approving a data center project. On taxes: looking only at sales-tax exemptions, as Ronan Farrow did, is the wrong way to evaluate this. Data centers pay significant property taxes. Loudoun County, which is the wealthiest county in America, now collects on the order of $1 billion a year from data centers. In Quincy, WA, data centers are more than half the property-tax roll. Over time, property taxes can go to zero while government spending increases in these towns. On jobs: this has been unambiguously awesome for blue collar Americans. Demand for electricians, plumbers, welders, HVAC techs, and contractors has gone vertical, and it is not a one-time construction job. These buildings get upgraded and expanded over time. That is why the building trades are fighting for them, and why some unions are now treating opposition to data centers as a reason not to endorse politicians. On power: the original fear was that households would pay for the incremental electricity demand in the form of higher prices. That is why the ratepayer-protection deals and the new large-load tariffs exist. The right structure is: the data center brings or pays for new generation and signs a contract long enough that existing customers are protected. Where that is happening, utilities are cutting or freezing residential rates and saying so on the record. Where it is not, people are right to object. Electricity prices are going down *today* in a number of large states because of data centers. 
On the environment: data centers overwhelming use natural gas today, which is the cleanest power source outside of nuclear, solar and wind. And the companies that are building the data centers are committed to carbon neutrality such that an equivalent amount of solar will likely be built. Maybe more importantly, the data centers need batteries to function effectively and these batteries can also sell energy back into the grid (which recently prevented blackouts in Texas). Over time, data centers will run on solar plus batteries. On the towns: Poverty in Quincy, WA fell from 29% to 6%. Data center taxes paid for a new high school, a hospital, a library, police and fire stations. This is happening in many left for dead former mill and farm towns that had no other bidder for the land. Data centers are actually reindustrializing parts of America and creating the kind of working-class jobs both parties have spent decades claiming to support. That should not be a partisan issue. Data centers can and should be awesome for America and they increasingly, overwhelmingly are. Supporting the outsourcing of data centers to China will likely age just as well as support for the outsourcing of high quality, blue collar manufacturing jobs to China has aged. When the facts change, I change my mind. I hope that reasonable people who had good faith reasons to oppose data centers at least consider updating their beliefs given the change in the facts over the last 18 months. This really matters for America. I will say I also think the idea of making data centers beautiful is a good one that has yet to be implemented. Data centers should be just as beautiful as Grand Central Station. We can learn a lot from the railroad buildout. Neoclassical revival ftw. Might write up open-weight AI tomorrow as this is equally essential to America.

I have been highly critical of federal Liberal—and many provincial—government policies that saw resource extraction as a sin and an embarrassment for the past decade. I understand why some are sceptical that the sector can recover. But the facts on the ground are that policies have improved, public opinion has become more supportive, and prices are higher in the past year and a half. This has led inexorably to more energy and resource projects. Canada will absolutely produce more potash, uranium, copper, gold, natural gas and oil in the coming years. The shovels are already in the ground. For @TheHubCanada I list the biggest projects for those hot commodities. thehub.ca/2026/08/30/trump-h…
