“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

Nanaimo Conservative Party of Canada EDA President Mark MacDonald should do the right thing ... resign


CPC EDA President Mark MacDonalds
statement for January 16th
It seems Conservative Party of Canada Nanaimo EDA President, Mark MacDonald, was taking desperate measures today to explain away his recent shot AGAINST the BC Conservative Party. 

In my opinion however, and using the immortal words of Ricky Riccardo, he has ... "more splainin" to do.

No matter what he is now saying today, On January 16th HE WAS in fact advising Conservative Party of Canada members, to vote for the bc LIBERALS.

And ... he was doing it with the Nanaimo EDA logo and social media account. And he did the exact same thing today!

TODAY'S statement from Nanaimo-Ladysmith
Conservative Party EDA President Mark MacDondald
If, in fact, he was just trying to make a personal comment, and now wants us to believe he made a bad hash of it, then why was he using Conservative Party of Canada logo and account? 

That seems pretty deliberate to me ... and I am guessing again several bylaws and principles of the Conservative Party of Canada.

People have had to resign for that same thing in the past – the improper use of registered and copy-written material ... or speaking a personal opinion but using the Official Office he is elected to, to do so.

It’s my opinion therefore, Mark MacDonald should do the right thing, and also resign.  That way, if he wants to support the BC Liberal Party, he’ll be free and clear to do so.

    This has been an issue for the BCCP for a very long time. The Federal Conservatives do not and have never supported the BCCP. In fact the CPC has gone out of its way to distance itself from the BCCP. To make matters worse Andrew Scheer has pulled the CPC to a centrist position, hardly differentiating it from the Federal Liberals. Why would you be surprised that they are supporting the provincial Liberals? The People's Party of Canada (PPC) is a better fit for the BCCP than the CPC. When is the BCCP going to wake up and negotiate with the PPC for recognition?

    A Liberal in blue isn’t a CONSERVATIVE. We know the difference. Andrew Wilkinson is a Trudeau boy, just blowin smoke. They will never build the pipe line. This attack by Mark MacDonald is just the latest of many. Regards Don Purdey

NDP Sits on $61 Million With No Start Date for Burnaby Hospital

Phase 2 of Burnaby Hospital redevelopment  was green lit to go ahead in September 2023 The NDP spent $45 million on the Burnaby Hospital redevelopment, cancelled the second phase, and now has another $61 million listed for the project in the province’s Public Accounts, with no start date for construction. If the NDP cancelled the project, what is happening to the $61 million set aside for it? The Phase 2 project was expected to cost between $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion and was intended to expand the hospital’s capacity. With Burnaby’s population growing and residents struggling to access healthcare, the government should be investing in healthcare capacity, not leaving millions of dollars tied up in limbo. “The NDP spent $45 million on this project before cancelling it, and now $61 million remains listed for it in the Public Accounts,” said MLA Misty Van Popta, Shadow Minister for Infrastructure. “If the government isn’t going to build the hospital expansion, it should explain whe...

BC Conservatives Point to Warning Signs in BC’s Economy

While Canada posted modest job gains in July, warning lights are still flashing in British Columbia. Youth unemployment remains stubbornly high, leaving too many first-time jobseekers shut out of the workforce. BC also lost 3,400 public administration jobs in July, likely as temporary Census positions ended. “BC's jobs divide remains stark. Unemployment is far higher in business-driven communities like Kelowna (9.3%) and Abbotsford-Mission (8.3%) than in Victoria (5.0%). Government should be focused on creating the conditions for private-sector investment and job growth,” said Gavin Dew, MLA for Kelowna-Mission and Shadow Minister for Economic Development. “We need an economy where young people can find work, businesses can hire, and every region has the opportunity to prosper.” This comes as BC faces five straight quarters where more businesses are closing than opening, an NDP cabinet rift over job-creating projects like Tilbury LNG, and fresh signs that even the province's to...
