"We will cut provincial income taxes by $1,000 a year for nearly every working British Columbian and $2,000 for the average couple, providing much-needed relief to families struggling with the rising cost of living.

A Conservative government will raise BC’s basic personal exemption from $13,216 to $32,000, making it the most generous in Canada. For a typical two-income family, that means $167 more every month to help cover the rising cost of gas, groceries, and everyday essentials."

"• The LNG sector has less of a presence in BC today than it did a decade ago. We will encourage the proponents of BC LNG and BC oil and gas to come back home to BC, to domicile here and increase their physical presence in the province where they operate.

• We will do this in a framework that has upside for the proponents through direct engagement: domiciling in BC has to be good for project proponents while increasing investment and benefits for BC."

"• We will reach out to proponents that left BC's LNG sector under a hostile or ambivalent BC NDP government.

• This includes ExxonMobil (exited in 2018), Chevron (exited in 2019 and no buyer found in 2021 so they wound down investment in BC), Petronas (cancelled Pacific NorthWest LNG a week after the NDP took office), and Woodside (exited 2021).

• Given the current global context, as soon as BC's investment doors are open under a new BC Conservative government, we will engage with former and new proponents for investment in natural gas and LNG in BC."

“I’ll say this about SOGI. I think that it has become an absolute lightning rod for division in our province, and it has become a challenge. And I think that many people are confused about what SOGI has become in our school.

I firmly believe that we have to repeal SOGI. Obviously we have to provide a safe place for our kids. Just like I said in Bridgeview yesterday, I went as a child to the Bridgeview Elementary School and felt safe.

We need to continue that tradition. But I do believe that SOGI has to be repealed.”

"[DRIPA] has not created the security for British Columbians that it was meant to achieve. We are in court everywhere in this province. So the reality is it (DRIPA) has to be repealed…The challenges we have faced with First Nations and working together have been, no question, a very serious challenge. DRIPA hasn’t helped that, sadly.

We need a genuine path forward. And trust me when I say this, I am committed to working with First Nations. I am committed to building these projects together with First Nations, for the benefit of all of us. And I want partnerships with First Nations.

We need to make everyone equally successful here. And equally, both in a number of different ways – financially, socially, in all respects – we have to work together with our First Nations. And trust me when I say this, I am very committed to that."
