“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

TARA McPHAIL -- President, Canadian Future Party

 


I am honoured to be the Interim President of the Canadian Future Party.
 
I accepted this position because I don’t see that my values and interests are represented when I look at our current political landscape. On the left side of the spectrum, I see irresponsible fiscal stewardship, the stripping of resources for our armed forces at a time of significant international conflict, unnecessary impediments in the path of resource developers, and the same tired soundbites circulated again and again on issues of climate change and health care.
 
On the right side of the spectrum, however, I don’t see real solutions. Instead, I hear incessant attacks, unrealistic talk of “removing the gatekeepers” in an overly simplistic effort to address our affordability crisis, and a disturbing willingness to advance the interests of conspiracy theorists and other fringe elements.
 
Canadians deserve better.
 
We need evidence-based solutions to a number of pressing Canadian issues (climate change, health care, our declining productivity and our standing in the world), delivered by a political party whose leaders exercise sound judgment and communicate in a respectful and prime ministerial tone.
 
I want to end the political homelessness that I know many Canadians feel! 
 
Please join me as I assist the Canadian Future Party in filling the vacuum around Canada’s political centre.
 
Sincerely,
Tara McPhail

  1. Stop wasting our money on so-called climate change and I just might vote for this party

  3. The climate has been changing since before dinosaurs walked the earth!! That doesn’t mean that we can’t reduce pollution. Starting with the wind farm turbines killing millions of migratory birds. These turbines are not recycled but become landfill pollution. Canada needs to become a leader for technology that will make fossil fuels more efficient. Listen to all the scientists not just the ones on the government payroll.

  4. Dominic Cardy is the best you can come up with as a leader? Your party’s motto must be “When it comes to your kids, we know what is best for them, not you.”

RCMP gag order comes after BC NDP catch heat for diverted safe supply (Northern Beat)

In the wake of several high-profile police drug seizures of suspected safer supply that put the BC NDP government on the defensive last month, BC RCMP “E” division issued a gag order on detachments, directing them to run all communications on “hot button” public safety issues through headquarters in the lead-up to the provincial election. “It is very clear we are in a pre-election time period and the topic of ‘public safety’ is very much an issue that governments and voters are discussing,” writes a senior RCMP communications official in an email dated Mar. 11 in what appears to have gone out to all BC RCMP detachments . . . .

KRUGELL: BC NDP turns its attention from BC United to BC Conservatives

The BC NDP turning its attention, from BC United, to BC Conservatives was reported over the weekend from a variety of sources. It is the result of the surge in the BC Conservative's polling numbers and the subsequent collapse of BC United. The NDP has largely ignored the BC Conservatives, instead they opt to talk about issues directly or attack their old foes BC United. Practical politics says that parties closer to the centre tend to ultimately prevail over the long haul. They do wane but often make comebacks. A good example is the federal Liberals going from third party to government in 2015. Centrism has a lot of appeal on voting day. The NDP shifting its fire from United to Conservative is a reflection of reality. BC United did buy advertising online and radio over the last few months. Did that shift the polls back to them? Nope. The reality is today, the BC Conservatives are the party of the Opposition, and day by day the Conservatives are looking like a party not ready to fig

Baldrey: 2024 meets 1991? How B.C. election history could repeat itself (Times Colonist)

NOTE ... not the original image from Keith Baldrey's op/ed 1991 BC general election -- Wikipedia   A veteran NDP cabinet minister stopped me in the legislature hallway last week and revealed what he thinks is the biggest vulnerability facing his government in the fall provincial election. It’s not housing, health care, affordability or any of the other hot button issues identified by pollsters. "I think we are way too complacent,” he told me. “Too many people on our side think winning elections are easy.” He referenced the 1991 election campaign as something that could repeat itself. What was supposed to be an easy NDP victory then almost turned into an upset win for the fledgling BC Liberal Party. Indeed, the parallels between that campaign and the coming fall contest are striking ... CLICK HERE for the full story
