“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” ~~ John G. Diefenbaker

Andrew Wilkinson, along with many of his fellow provincial LIBERAL members, are continually shelling out wads of CASH not to federal Conservatives, but instead to the Federal LIBERAL Party


So, the Federal Conservative EDA for Nanaimo Ladysmith, led by President Mark MacDonald, has felt it necessary to disavow themselves from the ONLY TRUE provincial Conservative Party.  And, WONDER OF WONDERS ... he has seen fit to drag out the age-old crap about splitting the vote.  What a load of hog-wash!! 

Must I once again remind Federal Conservatives, that seem happy to get in bed with provincial LIBERALS, that there is NO SUCH THING as a split vote. 

A vote, is a vote ... and it SHOULD BE EARNED!


Desperation?  The only non-socialist party? bcLIBERALS are an amalgamation of federal LIBERALS and federal Conservatives?   

Mark MacDonald, you do a GREAT disservice to the people of BC with your words that are little more than garbage.

Let me also say this to any federal Conservative party member.  "You should be very concerned that many in leadership roles are asking you to support a provincial party, the bc LIBERALS".

BC Liberals are a party whose leader Andrew Wilkinson, along with many of his provincial LIBERAL members, are continually shelling out wads of CASH, but not to federal Conservatives, instead it goes to the Federal LIBERAL Party.

Is that what you really want? 

Let me ask you as a federal Conservative, “Does it make any sense that MacDonald would ask you to support a party, whose federal counterparts are hell bent on ensuring the Conservative Party of Canada is never again in the role of government?”.

I find it difficult not to have anything but contempt for MacDonald, and any of his fellow EDA executive, that would agree with the statement he released today. 

It is wrong --- seriously wrong – for MacDonald to call on federal conservatives to fund, back, and support a provincial party that has a multitude of its members, including its leader, all in support of the Justin Trudeau Liberals.

That should be something that all makes federal Conservatives gag!

  1. “...and that’s why the federal Conservative party chooses to not take an active role in B.C. politics.” If this is what Mark MacDonald says, while supporting Liberals and carbon taxes, then he should resign as EDA President. He is speaking out of both sides of his mouth and being a complete and utter embarrassment to the Conservative Party of Canada. MacDonald is free to support carbon taxes and a BC Liberal Leader who donates to the Justin Trudeau Liberals, but he should find the integrity to stay focused on federal politics rather than dividing Conservatives.

FORSETH -- If having three un-happy MLA’s leave the party, is what it takes to have unity within caucus, then I say, “Fine; let it be so”

Regrettably, in recent days, issues within the Conservative Party of BC have come to the surface resulting in one member being removed from Caucus (Dallas Brodie) and the party, and two others (Tara Armstrong and Jordan Kealy) leaving of their own accord. As of this morning (Saturday March 8th) all three are now sitting as independents in the BC legislature. So, what does that mean? In the last twenty-four hours social media feeds have lit up with support for leader John Rustad, while others have been negative, accusing the party, and Rustad, of being bullies and not standing up for conservative values. Ryan Painter, who has personally worked with John Rustad, had this to say: Since the beginning, he's had one target: the BC NDP. He knows that British Columbians deserve a government that works for them, delivers on their promises, and doesn't tax them into poverty. He believes in his team and the power of a focused opposition. He knows who the enemy is. He knows BC deserves ...

WARD STAMER: “Hopefully he’s actually listening to what people have to say, and not just showing up for a photo op”

In his latest travels across the province, BC Forest Minister Ravi Parmar touched down in the Okanagan. A trip essentially, he said, to be on the ground meeting industry people. I read what he had to say, and about how he has been tasked with getting more timber to market. Let me start by saying, “ He hasn’t been tasked. He and Premier Eby guaranteed 45 million cubic metres of available wood fibre – they guaranteed that .” BC Timber Sales is a government agency within the provincial forest’s ministry, which is responsible for managing a portion of the province's Crown timber; specifically, 20 percent of the province's annual allowable cut. Unfortunately, BC Timber Sales did not provide anywhere near that amount last year, it was just 12.2 percent. Three years ago, BC mills cut 52 million metres of wood, bringing in nearly $2 billion dollars to the provincial treasury. That figure doesn’t include the taxes from 55,700 people directly employed in the industry, nor from the tens o...

Conservative Opposition demonstrates focused and policy-oriented approach in first four weeks of the legislative session

In the first four weeks of the legislative session, the Conservative Official Opposition has scored significant policy wins as it proves every day that the Conservative team has fresh ideas and real-world experience to bring to the table. At the same time, the NDP government has been listless, struggling to find a policy agenda that addresses the problems that British Columbians are facing. “This NDP government led by David Eby has tried to do everything under the sun to distract from their disastrous fiscal record and the fact that they are utterly out of ideas,” said Conservative Opposition Leader John Rustad. “They’ve tried to use the U.S. President to deflect from their eye-popping $11 billion deficit, the worst business confidence in the country, and the fact that they’ve created almost zero private sector jobs. This is no way to run a province or an economy.” Since the legislative session started on February 18th with the Throne Speech, the opposition...
