Host Peter McCully welcomes Gord Johns to the PQBeat Podcast. Since 2015 he has been the Member of Parliament for Courtney Alberni.

The MP talks about Fish Farms, Island Rail and the Pharma Care Program.

Johns is the critic for Mental Health and substance use and talks about a bill which he tabled.

‘Last year, I spent the bulk of my year in between the House of Commons, and weekends traveling the country, listening to experts, hearing from everyone, from police chiefs to medical health experts about how to respond to the crisis. And tabled legislation to respond to the expert task force on substance use, which just reflected that. Sadly, it was defeated by both Conservatives and Liberals.’

Johns also comments on Reconciliation and offers his thoughts on how to get more people to the polls at election time.
