FELDSTED -- Our government is blissfully unaware (or ignores) the hypocrisy and severe damage to our economy


Oil companies persuade states to make pipeline protests a felony
By Bloomberg ~~ Aug. 19, 2019

After protesters disrupted construction of an oil pipeline in North Dakota by chaining themselves to construction equipment and pitching tents along the route, oil and chemical companies found a way to keep it from happening again; they made it a crime ...

... Bills criminalizing trespassing near oil pipelines, gas processing equipment and other designated “critical infrastructure” passed this year in Indiana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Tennessee and Texas -- building on similar measures previously enacted in Oklahoma and other states ... now pushing to create infrastructure protest laws in Illinois, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

American oil duplicity and hypocrisy
     
American oil companies have successfully managed to make pipeline protests unlawful in some parts of the USA. At the same time, they are funding pipeline protesters in Canada to do exactly what they are prohibiting in the USA.

Our government is blissfully unaware (or ignores) the hypocrisy and severe damage to our economy.

We are led by ideological moron’s incapable of questioning the climate change scam. The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) theories cannot withstand critical scrutiny by qualified scientists. The evidence grows daily.
     
Canadian pipeline protests are politically and economically motivated. The objective is to protect the American economy at the cost of Canada’s economy. We need to:

  1. Shut down American funded NGOs creating and funding protest groups;
  2. Make pipeline protests that endanger infrastructure unlawful;
  3. Build a robust petroleum development and processing infrastructure throughout Canada; and
  4. When we are ready, turn off the taps to pipelines that feed into the USA.

     
American and eastern Canadian corporations have held sway for far too long. Canada must be governed for the benefit of all of Canada. Our governments have to adhere to the principle of equal opportunity for all Canadians irrespective of domicile. Their mandate to provide essential services, not to engage in social engineering.

“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
