“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

FELDSTED -- The Trudeau Liberals are at it again – encouraging social discord


There are minorities at both ends of the abortion debate spectrum. A rational debate on abortion is not possible as neither side will allow deviation from their radical positions. No political response or position will satisfy both as they deal in stark black and white.
  
"My views have evolved," Goodale says today.

That is classic answer avoidance. Evolved to what? He doesn’t say, while demanding that Scheer should do so; leftist double standards in play.

Much the same applies to gay marriage. The minority of radicals who refuse to accept that gay people are an integral part of our society and have been for millennia are offset by radicals who insist we must promote gay life as an alternative to heterosexuality.

A person is gay or not gay. A tiny minority within that minority are omnisexual and don’t care about the gender of a lover. That too is as old as dirt.

The Liberal inference that a conservative MP may introduce a private member’s bill on these issues is disgusting. Any MP can introduce a pro-abortion or same-sex bill that will create as much controversy as a restrictive measure. The topics are toxic.

The objective of raising these issues is to distract us from election issues that really matter.

Goodale’s tweet of an old Scheer same-sex marriage speech is the equivalent of tossing a fistful of sunflower seeds in a flock of geese. Both the mainstream and social media leapt on this non-issue and the distraction appears to be working.

Are we really that blind to political manipulation?

Most of us see cynical hypocrisy for what it is. Ralph Goodale and Justin Trudeau are fighting for their political lives. Trudeau’s Achilles’ heel is that he cannot believe that every other party leader is not equally intent on thrusting his personal views and ideology on the Canadian people.

Scheer has not signaled such an intention. What we see is what we get – a middle class father of five with no personal fortune, and no major connections to the wealthy and powerful. He has survived in the highly partisan and brutal world in the Ottawa bubble. He senses that Canada is not yet ready for the drastic changes proposed by Maxime Bernier, but that may change in time.

Those who are disgruntled with Scheer’s modest approach have a PPC alternative.

Be wary of the Greens. Elizabeth May is Marxist; anti-business, anti-capitalism and anti-wealth. Trudeau and May share the same view of environmental issues. They have no interest in making a greener Canada. They see environmental law as levers to coerce Canadians into submitting to ideals that neither hold and both view environmentalism as a route to increased political power over Canadians rather than as a benefit for Canadians.

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...

Conservative Party of BC Calls for Coroner’s Inquest in the Death of Chantelle Williams

  Chantelle Williams/Facebook “Somebody has to come out and tell the truth on what happened and who’s at fault” ~~ Martin Watts, Uncle of Chantelle Williams The Conservative Party of BC is urgently calling for a coroner’s inquest into the death of 18-year-old Indigenous youth Chantelle Williams, who tragically died under the care of Usma Nuu-chah-nulth Family and Child Services, an agency of the Ministry of Children and Family Development. Her family is disturbed by the lack of transparency and unanswered questions surrounding her final moments, and are seeking answers on who was responsible for her care and supervision and why no one noticed she was missing until it was too late. Chantelle was found unresponsive in Port Alberni in the early morning of January 28, 2025. She was later pronounced dead in the hospital. Temperatures had dropped below –7°C the night of her death.
