“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

As we enter 2020, the BC NDP have yet to roll out any plans to ensure BC forestry workers get back to work


Early this morning (January 17th) Trevor Bolin, leader of the BC Conservatives, sent a message to all members of the party --- here is the text of that message:


My fellow British Columbians,

As we embark on a New Year for BC families, it’s the start of a new decade, and many new firsts... but for the BC NDP and BC Liberals we have seen it all before.

British Columbia’s oldest resource sector, forestry, was put on life support in 2019 from the mistakes of both the current government and the previous government.  As we enter 2020, the BC NDP have yet to roll out any plans to ensure BC forestry workers get back to work, and that our industry is financially and environmentally sustainable for generations to come. 

After today’s court ruling in favour of the Trans Mountain Pipeline, let’s hope Premier (John) Horgan and the NDP are done wasting our money fighting Alberta and the very industry keeping us warm and safe.

The BC Liberals are in high hopes that we are all too busy dealing with the insanely cold weather and some of the largest snowstorms in decades to notice Global News has uncovered yet another scandal, this one involving more money laundering, bribes and organized crime all under the watchful eye of the BC Liberals. 


Same ol’ Liberals, new logo... just lipstick on a pig.

British Columbia deserves more, British Columbians deserve better, The BC Conservatives believe in putting people first: first in communities, first in jobs right here at home, first in health care and first in government.

Please join us in telling the BC NDP and the BC Liberals that we stand together for a Better British Columbia.

Yours Sincerely,

Trevor Bolin, Leader
BC Conservative Party

Abbotsford-Mission MLA Reann Gasper to step down for Conservative Leader Hon. Kerry-Lynne Findlay to run in a by-election

Deputy Whip and MLA Reann Gasper has informed the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia of her decision to step down as MLA for Abbotsford-Mission, creating an opportunity for Conservative Party of British Columbia Leader Hon. Kerry-Lynne Findlay to seek the seat in a forthcoming by-election. Gasper said the decision was made carefully and deliberately, with the future of British Columbia firmly in mind. Abbotsford-Mission MLA Reann Gasper “This is a decision I have made after a great deal of careful consideration, and I believe it is the right decision for me, for our Party, and for the work ahead,” said MLA Gasper. “It has been a privilege to represent the people of Abbotsford-Mission, and I am deeply grateful to everyone who placed their trust in me.

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...
