“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

When voters head to the polls for the next provincial election, the riding of Kelowna-Mission will be strongly represented with our Made in BC 5 Point plan ~~ Trevor Bolin, BC Conservative Party leader



MLA Steve Thomson
FORT ST. JOHN (12 / 09 / 19): 

Yesterday it was announced that after serving the people of Kelowna- Mission for the past 10 years, BC Liberal MLA Steve Thomson will not be running in next election.



“We are taking this opportunity to thank Mr. Thomson; not only for his service as an MLA to the people of Kelowna - Mission, but also as a former President of the BC Chamber of Commerce, Executive Director of the BC Agriculture Council, as well as the General Manager of the BC Fruit Growers Association and BC Milk Producers Association”, said BC Conservative leader Trevor Bolin.



Bolin continued, “In the most recent survey (by Insights West), support for the BC Conservatives has continued the trend of increased backing by decided voters, and now sits at 20 percent in the Interior of the province”.

“In approximately 22 months, voters in British Columbians will head to the polls for the next provincial election, and the riding of Kelowna - Mission will be strongly represented with our Made in BC 5 Point Plan”.

“Forestry workers, resource workers, those in ranching and agriculture, and every other hard-working British Columbian deserve better than they have been receiving under the current or previous government”.



“We’ll be there to provide it!”, Bolin concluded.

Interfor Moves Headquarters Out of BC as Forestry Crisis Continues

NDP policies are driving businesses out of B.C., and the forestry industry just suffered yet another calamity. Interfor, a BC company founded more than 60 years ago and now one of the world's largest lumber producers, is moving its headquarters from Burnaby, BC to Atlanta, Georgia. As BC’s forestry sector faces mill closures and mounting uncertainty, this move is another warning sign that the crisis is deepening and conditions are fatal. “This is the NDP’s record: endless job losses with no hope in sight for the forestry sector,” said Ward Stamer, Shadow Minister for Forestry. “Interfor still has three mills in BC which are now in serious jeopardy, and it is likely we will see even more companies pull out of BC. The NDP government is suffocating the forestry industry with high taxes, excessive regulations, and permitting delays, while DRIPA has made it impossible to plan for the future.” “Decisions like this are sadly not surprising given the NDP’s indifference if not hostility tow...

Okanagan Farmers Face NDP-Created Water Crisis ~~ BC Conservatives

Okanagan farmers are facing a water crisis as government-imposed restrictions threaten to kill their crops and destroy one of B.C.’s most important agricultural industries. In perhaps the most water-rich province in the country, our farmers have been left high and dry by the NDP government. For nine weeks, Okanagan and Shuswap farmers have proposed solutions, only to be met with NDP foot-dragging. Now forest fires have come to these regions as they are simultaneously reckoning with a water crisis that has been made worse through years of government inaction. Vernon-area farms have lost 70 percent of their water, while Kelowna and Summerland growers face severe restrictions. This situation is unacceptable and cannot continue. Ian Paton, Shadow Minister for Agriculture, said the NDP is once again forcing farmers to pay for its own failure to plan. "Farmers and ranchers must be listened to when decisions affecting their livelihoods are made, and under the NDP, they aren’t," said...

NDP Hypocritically Admits Natural Gas Power Was Needed All Along ~~ BC Conservatives

The NDP just got caught buying back the exact kind of power plant it spent years telling British Columbians they didn't need. The NDP government announced today that BC Hydro is purchasing the Island Generation natural gas facility in Campbell River, an admission that its electrification-only energy policy was never realistic. The 275-megawatt plant was originally privately owned yet kept to a minimal backup role under the NDP, operating just 15 days a year on average. Now, with demand outpacing what the NDP's plan can support, the government is spending taxpayer funds on the very gas capacity it once treated as obsolete. "You cannot electrify everything and pretend natural gas doesn't matter," said Larry Neufeld, Shadow Minister for Energy.  "Buying back a gas plant they once wrote off is proof their own plan couldn't keep the lights on. It's a step towards more energy reality, but the government needs to go further and scrap the impending province-w...
