“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

Leadership Race launch is the start of a new chapter for the BC Conservative Party


This is one of those rare occasions when I promote something specifically to do with the BC Conservative Party.  The following has been submitted by Andrew Mann, Leadership Committee Chair for the BC Conservative Party:






I’m excited to announce that today marks the launch of the British Columbia Conservative Party leadership race. We will be accepting nomination forms until December 31, and on February 23, 2019 we will elect a new leader. To inquire about running to be our new leader, or if you would like to get involved with the party, please go to our website at www.bcconservative.ca. 

This leadership race is the start of a new chapter for our party and our province. British Columbia deserves better than it has been getting for the past decades. We have watched three political parties trying to get into our wallets while distracting us with semantics.

Only one party in British Columbia opposes the money grab euphemistically called the “Carbon Tax,” or as Ralph Goodall now calls it, the “Environmental Regulatory Charge.”

Only one party stands shoulder to shoulder with the other western provinces in saying "no" to this green-washed tax grab.




Only one party supports a full overhaul of the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) in order to reduce insurance rates for BC drivers.

Only one party has proposed forward thinking policies on ride-sharing, autonomous vehicles, and free market cannabis distribution, to name a few.

Only one party, the British Columbia Conservative Party, stands tall for conservative values in BC.

British Columbians should Demand Better from our government. It's time to bring a Conservative voice back to the Legislature.

Important Information: 
Leadership Race ... now open 
Nomination Deadline ... December 31, 2018 

Leadership Election to be held February 23, 2019 
Location: Hotel Grand Pacific 
463 Belleville Street, Victoria

  1. I've always been a Conservative. They seem to have the values I like to see in government.

Budget 2027: After a Decade of Decline, NDP Budget Delivers an Assault on Seniors, Working Families, and Small Businesses

Peter Milobar, BC Conservative Finance Critic, condemned the NDP government’s latest budget as the result of a decade of decline that has left British Columbians broke, unsafe, and paying more for less.   “After ten years of NDP mismanagement, this budget is an assault on seniors, working families, and the small businesses that drive our economy,” said Milobar. “The NDP have turned their back on the people working hardest to make ends meet and the seniors who built this province.” Milobar pointed to a new $1.1 billion annual income tax increase and warned that the government is piling new costs onto households already struggling with affordability.   “This government keeps asking British Columbians for more, while delivering less,” Milobar said. “The question people are asking is simple: Where has all the money gone?” Milobar noted that BC has gone from a surplus in the first year of NDP government to a projected deficit of more than $13 billion this year, while prov...

WARD STAMER -- Those are REAL forestry numbers, not just made-up numbers

The following is a condensed version of remarks Kamloops – North Thompson MLA Ward Stamer’s made, regarding Forestry, in the BC Legislature, on Tuesday afternoon (02/24/2026)   Let’s talk a little bit, when we talk about Budget 2026, about the forest industry, which is near and dear to my heart. Forestry remains one of British Columbia’s foundational industries. It’s a pillar that built this province. Entire communities depend upon it. Interior towns, northern communities, Vancouver Island regions, the Kootenays, the Lower Mainland, with manufacturing facilities in Surrey and Maple Ridge, just to name a few — everywhere in BC is touched by forestry. One word that was not mentioned in Budget 2026 was forestry. That’s a shame, an incredible shame. It wasn’t an oversight – it was intentional. This government has driven forestry into the ground .... INTO THE GROUND! We can talk a little bit about some of the initiatives that this government has brought forth, to try to resurrect ...

FORSETH -- Before anyone gets excited about one poll showing a candidate with a 25 percent lead, and 44 percent support overall, let’s give it a few more weeks

Is this based in reality -- how accurate are the numbers? In the past couple of weeks a couple of candidates, for the leadership of the BC Conservative Party, have been presenting polling results that they lead the pack – one even going so far as to say they have a lock on 44% of those who will be voting, and a twenty-five percent lead over the individual ranked second. I am going to say that this one, from Kerry-Lynne Findlay, is highly suspect. First of all the company conducting the poll, ERG National Research, is not a Member of Industry Bodies (the Canadian Research Insights Council), meaning they do not adhere to established industry standards for research, such as transparency, privacy, and methodological rigor. AI Overview states that ... based on alerts from the Canadian Research Insights Council (CRIC) and reports, ERG National Research should be treated with extreme caution regarding its reliability, and legitimacy, in conducting political polling. Before I even read this in...
