“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.

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

BC child killer's name change prompts criticism, political finger-pointing (Times Colonist)

The fact that child killer Allan Schoenborn has successfully changed his name under BC laws has prompted finger-pointing among politicians. BC Premier David Eby told media Thursday that in 2002 when opposition leader Kevin Falcon was the Minister of Deregulation he removed regulations under the Name Act that ensured name changes would be published publicly in the BC Gazette ...

Editorial: In this election, Eby should be put to the test (Times Colonist)

 ... In our democracy, the majority has the right to make decisions, and the minority has the right to oppose those decisions and offer other choices. To take it a step further: The official Opposition has an obligation, a responsibility, to provide cohesive policy alternatives in the next election. This is not happening in British Columbia today. Blame personalities and egos. With a lengthy list of major issues facing the province, this year’s election should be hotly contested. It should allow voters to pass judgment on the platform of Premier David Eby, who has not won an election, before giving him free rein for another four years. His platform has been clear. Does it face up to the huge challenges we face? There are bold initiatives, but there are also problems worthy of debate ... CLICK HERE for the full editorial
