“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

There must be someone willing to get a helicopter full of strong female Wet'suwet'en Elders -- that'll put a verbal whipping and knowledge session on these young people -- and set them straight

Tonight upon landing in Victoria, and going for an evening stroll downtown, I got to see up close all these protestors ... along with all their garbage, dirty clothes and dishes, tents, fires and all these displays they have set up all over the front steps, lights and entrance of the BC Legislature.

I decided to walk up to take a closer look, and was warned by the two guards not to engage with anyone. I was shocked to learn this has been going on for eight days.

Before I could get close to the front steps, a young lady in her early 20s purposely walks in front of me... 

Her: Are you here in solidarity with us and the Wet'suwet'en? 

Me: Which portion of the Wet'suwet'en are you talking about exactly? 

Her: If you want to be educated on the issues, you should come back tomorrow during the resistance rallies. 

Me: I think I understand the issues. I was just wondering which Wet'suwet'en people or individuals you were speaking about specifically? 

Her: If you're not standing with us and part of the resistance, you need to leave. Only warriors willing to rise are welcome here

[Two guys with their lower faces covered in bandanas then gather around her] 

Me: The resistance? Are we in a Star Wars movie right now? 

Come on you guys, anyone here pretending to know the collective opinion of the Wet'suwet'en Nation is being rather naive at this point. 

Give their people some time to deal with their own laws and issues. You are not helping anything. 

Bandana Warrior: Maybe you should educate yourself about the Royal Proclamation and indigenous issues.




Other Bandana Warrior: You need to leave now. I suggest you read some books and educate yourself. You clearly know nothing. 

Me: Yeah okay. Ya'll have a good evening.




What's happening at the Legislature, right now, is absolutely disgraceful and embarrassing to this Province and its citizens, including indigenous peoples, on so many levels.

There must be someone out there willing to get a helicopter full of strong female Wet'suwet'en Elders -- that'll put a verbal whipping and knowledge session on these young people -- and set them straight.



This is getting so ridiculous that it doesn't even feel real anymore.

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...
