“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

BRIAN WILSON -- I don't want to lose what our forefathers (I really hope there's not a problem with that word) have worked so hard for. Moving forward is fine. Tearing down what's behind us is not


The root word of conservative is, of course, "conserve"...maintain and preserve what we have, and advance forward.

We all want to improve things for our kids, and all of our history and advancements have been about that. That is now somehow denigrated by those trying to rip our society apart and relegate it to the dustbin by using the word "privilege" as if it's something negative.

I don't buy it.

Despite what our opposition may say about us, we believe in diversity in thought and opinion, and sex, and race -- truly a "Big Tent", that accepts all, working towards common goals.

Equality in opportunity, not outcome ... fiscal responsibility ... respect for each and every taxpayer's dollar ... caring more about merit, than quotas. I would say it is correct when people say, "Those days are over for most" – and it started with Trudeau Senior (Pierre Elliot Trudeau).

I've never forgiven him for ruining so many great things about my country, and his son is on his way to out-doing him. Read, "The Truth About Trudeau"...a real eye-opener. "No war for oil" or "No blood for oil" - I find these catch-phrases to be a tad too simplistic.

Energy is power, and who controls the energy welds the power. Somebody's going to do it ... might as well be us in the West rather than some corrupt despot. Energy is what has given us our way of life and our standard of living ...and our power. That's why it is under attack.

I'm not worried in the least about my choosing the correct urinal. I'm worried about the creeps and perverts choosing the wrong one, and little girls being subjected to, and victimized by that.

The gist of it all is that our culture, our way of life, our standards, our heritage, our language, our history, and our "privilege" is being ripped away at, torn down, and shamed, at every turn. And none of it can be seen as an improvement, by any stretch. Many are accepting of it, like the frog in the pot on the stove, who adapts to the increasing water temperature until he boils to death.

I am not.

I don't want to lose what our forefathers (I really hope there's not a problem with that word...) have worked so hard for. Moving forward is fine. Tearing down what's behind us is not.

PS - I'm definitely a heretic when it comes to not bowing down to the "man-made global warming" religion. I don't buy it. It's an absolute scam that is all about wealth redistribution, not the environment at all. And there is plenty of evidence, scientific and otherwise, to prove that.

And with that ... Rant over!

“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
