“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

Their guns are purchased for one reason, and one reason only -- GREED!



On January 15th an innocent young teenager, from Coquitlam, died after being hit be a stray bullet, shot by a cold-hearted callous and uncaring thug.

This teen, was simply headed home after dinner out with his family.

Vancouver Police Chief Adam Palmer, in an interview with the Sun, stated:
“My heart goes out to the family of the 15-year-old boy. They were having a normal Saturday night evening out with family and now they are grieving for their son,” Palmer said. “My message to the family is this: we will not ever be able to fully comprehend your grief, but the Vancouver Police Department will do whatever it takes to seek justice for your son.”

Following the outrageous and senseless death of this young teen, someone whom I will choose to call insensitive (at least by my standards), decided to post this comment on Twitter:


To this, I replied:


BULLSHIT. There's one hell of a difference between legal guns, 
and assholes that don't give a shit whether someone innocent 
is injured or killed.  Let's have a return of the death sentence 
return, OR let's make a life sentence what it's called?

I know the do-gooders will never allow the return of the death sentence, however, maybe it should be considered in cases like this ... or when a police office is shot and killed in the line of duty ... or when an expectant mother is murdered.

At the very least, shouldn't a Life Sentence be exactly what it is called.  You are sentenced to remain in prison for the rest of of your life.  Period!

In the past couple of years, from Vancouver,to Surrey, to Abbotsford ... and now more and more in the interior of BC, there have been gang wars. 

Gang wars that are being settled with guns.

By creeps and jerks who don't care in the least who may be hit by stray bullets.

Their guns are purchased for one reason, and one reason only -- GREED!

These gund, despite what those wanting a clamp down of guns say, have NOT been purchased legally; nor are they, or have they ever been, registered.

Always Vote (@always_Vote), your comments on Twitter the other day shows the complete lack of knowledge that you have when it comes to guns.  It likely also is indicative of those with thoughts like our Sunny Ways Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, who never met a gun he he didn't think should be registered.

Rather than stirring up the pot again with gun control talk, can we instead actually consider a course of action that just might at least cut down on the violence?

MAKE A LIFE SENTENCE, A LIFE SENTENCE!

I'm Alan Forseth in Kamloops, and the floor is now yours to share your thoughts.

“4.5 million hectares of forest lands have burned since 2023, and the best they can do is point to a 90-hectare block being salvaged?” ~~ Ward Stamer, Kamloops-North Thompson MLA

Today, BC NDP forest Minister Ravi Parmar made this pronouncement; ‘Removing red tape has sped up permitting, allowing for more wood to be salvaged, quicker’. 4.5 million hectares of forest lands have burned since 2023, and the best they can do is point to a 90-hectare block?    ~~ BC Conservative Forests Critic Ward Stamer While acknowledging the NDP government has recognized improvements were needed in permitting and accessing burnt fibre in a timely fashion, the reality is, they are barely making a dent in the problem.  This government's recognition that only seven percent of pulp mill fibre came from burnt timber in 2024-25, quite simply put, is a failure. And the recent announcement, just three weeks ago, that the Crofton Pulp Mill would be permanently closing, is proof of that.     Instead of Premier David Eby’s government addressing core issues being faced by British Columbia’s forest industry, they are doing little more than manipulating the facts, ...

A message from BC Conservative MLA Ward Stamer, and the Kamloops – North Thompson Riding Association

2025 was a busy first year. As a Caucus, we worked very hard to defeat Bills 14 and 15, legislation which allows the provincial government to move ahead without environmental assessments on renewable projects, and that also allows cabinet to build infrastructure projects without getting approval from local municipal governments. This is not acceptable to your BC Conservative caucus, and we will continue to press this government for open and transparent projects in the future.  Two things we had success in were having the first Private Members bill passed in over 40 years. The first was Jody Toors Prenatal and Post Natal Care bill, and then there was my private members Bill M217 Mandatory Dashcams in commercial vehicles (passed second reading unanimously and is heading to Committee in February). Regrettably, much of the legislation passed by the government was little more than housekeeping bills, or opportunities to strengthen the ability of Cabinet Ministers to bypass the BC legi...

Wildfire waste plan torched -- Forestry critic Stamer calls BC's wildfire salvage rate 'a failure'

Claims that BC is making progress salvaging wildfire-damaged timber are masking deeper problems in the forest sector, the province’s forestry critic says. Last week, BC’s Ministry of Forests said mills in the province processed more than one million cubic metres of wildfire chips in 2024-25, up from 500,000 cubic metres in 2023 and representing about seven per cent of all processed wood. Kamloops-North Thompson BC Conservative MLA Ward Stamer said those claims of progress ignore the reality that only a fraction of burned timber is being used ... CLICK HERE for the full story
