“To whoever continues to vandalize my highway signs with the worst hate and racist images imaginable, you do not represent the northwest,” said Cullen in a Twitter comment on July 9.

This is the second time that the MLA’s signage has been vandalized with hate messages and swastikas since December of last year when it was targeted at Dr. Bonnie Henry after she rolled out COVID vaccine mandates.
