“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

WUN FEATHER - Conservatives need to become more relatable to the ones who are going to determine the future of our country

 


There was a time when young people like me went to school to learn how to learn.

I remember in 1966 when my dad was my teacher. I handed in an arithmetic test. All the answers were correct, but I did not show him how I came up with the answers, and so my dad gave me a zero.

 

What does this have to do with anything, you may ask?

 

Being able to determine the truth is significantly more important than someone telling you what to believe. How you determine the truth is even more important than the truth itself.

 

55 years later, the majority of people have not been taught how to think for themselves.

 

I say that with certainty because people like Justin Trudeau have become Prime Minister with absolutely no merit whatsoever. How could voters choose him as the answer without seeing the work he had never done??

 

You can blame Harper all you want and suggest that he is the reason we have a Federal Liberal party destroying our country right now, but that idea defies logic.

 

In a country of 30+ million people, how did someone who has never done anything of value ever become our leader? I can tell you why. The Mainstream Media, our school system and social media made him out to be some sort of supernatural being, and people who were easily lead by the system found him relatable, and cast their votes.

 

Thanks for following me this far.

 

What I am about to say is highly controversial and is going to make people on both sides of the political spectrum angry. I suggest that if a federal election was called today, Justin Trudeau would easily beat the Conservative party leader. That is because a high percentage of people would vote for him.

 

They see Trudeau as a young pot smoking fellow who lives in a home paid by taxpayers, who only pokes his head outdoors once or twice per day to recite predetermined questions from the media. They can relate with someone else doing all the work for him. His speaking notes, his answers, and his comments are all done by paid handlers.

 

They do not relate with the current Conservative party leader. To many voting aged people, he looks like he has been in politics all his life. Take a close look at the people who are going to vote Liberal during our next election, and then take a close look at the leader of the Conservative party. 

 

Do you see any commonality? No. Is he relatable? Does he have any attributes that would attract people who prefer government handouts to working for a living?

 

Sorry, but I don't think so.

 

As it stands right now, the people who would vote for the leader of the Federal Conservative party, are people like me. People who love our country.

People who are deeply saddened to see Canada rapidly becoming a third world country desperately in debt, with no end to the spending in sight.

 

But people like me are not the ones who the Federal Conservative party need to recruit. I am already committed to giving them my vote. That is because my father taught me that seeing the work is more important than the final answer.

 

Like it or not, we Conservatives need to become more relatable to the ones who are going to determine the future of our country.

 

They are beginning to outnumber us, and their criteria for choosing a leader is significantly different than ours has always been.

FORSETH: Without a strong local presence, there is NO reason for anyone to tune in to local(?) radio

LOCAL HOMETOWN RADIO IS DYING … and without serious measures put in place, it will likely never see the light of day again. For well over four decades, the Canadian Radio and Television Commission (CRTC) has presided over its’ demise, and for that I say, “Shame”. Without out a word to say enough was enough, the CRTC has allowed corporate Canada to buy up one radio station after the other, and then allowed them to slash staff to the point where some so-called local radio stations do nothing more than air programming that originates from communities well outside the region in which they are located. Case in point?   On CHNL* 610 in Kamloops, the morning show hosted by Vinnie and Randi, DOES NOT originate from Kamloops -- it doesn’t even originate here in BC. It’s a program that Stingray airs across multiple radio stations in Western Canada. It doesn’t end there. Not only are Vinnie and Rando doing mornings on CHNL, but they also show up on sister station Country 103 … and of course o...

Conservative Economic Team Responds to Urgent Industry Concerns

 " For far too long, the BC NDP has ignored the economic challenges facing British Columbians. Manufacturing jobs are vanishing, forestry is in decline, and private sector employment growth has stagnated. Meanwhile, affordability has worsened for both families and businesses. British Columbians deserve better, and we’re here to deliver real solutions to rebuild our economy and create jobs that support everyday working people and their families ." – Gavin Dew, MLA and Shadow Minister for Jobs, Economy, Development, and Innovation.   December 3, 2024, Vancouver, BC – The Conservative economic team met today with business leaders and stakeholders to tackle critical issues impacting British Columbia’s economy. Attended by 9 critics from the Conservative Caucus, this meeting was convened by MLA Gavin Dew – Shadow Minister for Jobs, Economic Development, and Innovation - as a direct response to an October 30th open letter from seven of the province’s largest industry associations. ...

WARD STAMER -- We need certainly in our markets, and certainly in our fibre supply, before we no longer have a forest industry in this province

Image Government of BC I think we all realize that the threat of Trump’s 25% tariff is like other provocative statements he’s made in the past. That said, we should have reason to be concerned. Tariffs don’t benefit anyone. A tariff of that magnitude – included on our own softwood lumber exports, will make things more expensive for Americans, and cause friction in the supply chain. If imposed, a twenty-five percent tariff will be equally detrimental to the citizens and economy of the United States, as well as the people of BC. There are two things, however, of equal concern to the threat of punitive tariffs by incoming U.S. President-elect Donald Trump. One is our antiquated stumpage fees. It is a legacy from decades ago, and one incapable of responding to changing market conditions. We need to revamp our stumpage system to better reflect market conditions, and our economic costs. Instead, a value-added tax system will be instantly responsive to current market conditions and will encou...
