Hey @GeorgeHeyman: BC has more species at risk of extinction than ANYWHERE ELSE IN CANADA yet is one of the only provinces without stand-alone Species At Risk leg'n. You PROMISED this law in your eulogy for Gwen Barlee when you were new Min. of Env't.
I was there.
Well?
#bcpoli
@GeorgeHeyman What about all the other environmental election promises the #BCNDP have broken? Here they are. And guess what!
They are recycling the same promises this time around!
Hey @jjhorgan @GeorgeHeyman: that kind of recycling is anti-environmental.

@GeorgeHeyman @jjhorgan .The NDP promised to sustainably manage forests.
Did they?
No:
"It’s business as usual in BC, incl in the old-growth forests in the central Walbran & Fairy Creek on S.Vancouver Is, in endangered caribou habitat in Anzac Valley N of Prince George. & on the Sunshine Coast"
#bcpoli
@GeorgeHeyman @jjhorgan ..#BCNDP promised climate action via "CleanBC." Well? "Earth scientist David Hughes' study for CCPA showed that BC's emissions from oil & gas production will exceed the province’s 2050 target by 160 per cent, even if all other emissions are reduced to ZERO by 2035.

@GeorgeHeyman @jjhorgan ...It's a pretty dire report card, Environment Minister @GeorgeHeyman - the equivalent of D's and F's. And I've only scratched the surface. Are you just going to keep coasting, or are you actually planning to do anything? We can see you, you know. #bcpoli thenarwhal.ca/bc-election-nd…
@GeorgeHeyman @jjhorgan And so far, Minister Heyman, I literally see no difference between you and your BC liberal predecessor. /
@GeorgeHeyman @jjhorgan (This is assuming you are reelected and keep your ministerial post. It doesn't really matter who's in it at this point, though, since it seems fairly ceremonial. Eh @jjhorgan?)
