“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

FORSETH -- Focus on the nine things I mentioned. That’s what will allow the Conservative Party to win the next election

IMAGE CREDIT:   Darryl Dyck, the Canadian Press. I thought I had already made up my mind who I would be ranking on my ballot, in the Conservative Party of BC leadership race; now I am not so sure.  That means that, at least for me, and perhaps many others, it’s a good thing voting hasn’t already taken place. There were initially only one or two of the candidates that I thought might be a little too right of centre for my liking, now it seems that list is growing. I consider myself more closely aligned with what used to be called a Progressive Conservative, regardless, I feel more than comfortable within the Conservative Party of BC.  Some, however, in messages to me on my political Facebook page, have been rather, shall we say, a bit mean-spirited in comments they’ve made about my ‘purity’ as a conservative. To tell you the truth, I really don’t care! Some leadership candidates, in comments made online, have also been raising the issue of who is a pure enough conservati...

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 ...

Your government has a gambling problem (Troy Media)

Provinces call it “revenue,” but it looks a lot like exploitation of the marginalized The odds of winning Lotto Max are about 1 in 33 million. You’re statistically more likely to be struck by lightning than to win it. But your government is betting that statistics won’t hold you back; they’re counting on it. Across Canada, provincial governments not only regulate gambling, they also maintain a monopoly on lottery and gaming by owning and operating the entire legal market. That means every scratch card is government-issued, gambling odds are government-set, casino ads are government-funded and lottery billboards are government-paid. And these are not incidental government activities. They generate significant revenues that governments have powerful incentives to expand, not constrain. It would be one thing for our governments to encourage us to engage in healthy activities. We can quibble about whether the government should be trying to convince us to be more active or eat more vegetabl...
