“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

TODD STONE becomes 4th MLA to endorse BC Liberal leadership candidate Kevin Falcon

 


THE FOLLOWING IS a media release sent out, in the early evening, last night (June 16th)

 

 

Today, Todd Stone, the BC Liberal MLA for Kamloops-South Thompson, endorsed Kevin Falcon to be the next leader of the BC Liberal Party.

 

"Today I am proud to announce my support for Kevin Falcon,” said Stone. “I know the hard work that lies ahead for the next leader and I believe Kevin has what it takes to lead both the party and the province through these challenging times.”

 

Stone was first elected to the legislature in 2013 and was a candidate in the 2018 BC Liberal Leadership election. He served as Minister of Transportation from 2013 to 2017 and is currently the Opposition Critic for Jobs, Economic Recovery, and Innovation.

 

“Kevin will champion big, bold ideas.” continued Stone “[He is] someone with a vision for British Columbia that propels us forward. Someone who won't just settle for an economic recovery, but actually thinks about building for our next generation.”

 

Falcon and Stone were in Vancouver to make this announcement one month after the official launch of the Kevin Falcon Leadership Campaign.

 

“I have a great amount of respect for Todd, both professionally and personally,” said Falcon. “We’re driven by the same desire to create a better future for our daughters and children right across this province. Todd and I want a BC for all of our children that gives them the same opportunities to succeed right here at home in British Columbia”

 

Stone joins MLAs Mike Morris, Ian Paton, and Trevor Halford in endorsing Falcon to be the next BC Liberal Leader. Falcon has also been endorsed by his campaign co-chairs, former Mayor of Surrey Dianne Watts and former BC Liberal candidate Puneet Sandhar.

 

“Kevin knows how to get the job done,” concluded Stone. “He will recruit the next generation of young, diverse, passionate candidates to help him implement [his] vision for BC.”

 

The BC Liberal Party will vote for their new leader between February 3rd to 5th, 2022.

PECKFORD -- Authoritarian governments in our own time, from the Nazi period to the USSR, have crippled democracy and freedom and yet we have not learned

Just come right out and say it ... it’s China ... and it’s communist. So there ... I said it! And its a virus, the corona virus, that came from China — the China Virus. Oh, yah it has a fancy name —but this keeps it simple and identifies its origin. Imagine that!!! Of course, now that Trump has said it, he, being a virus to most China sensitive people (and that’ s just about everyone) none will say it now —- And the political correctness and hypocrisy of it all. The World Health Organization changed all that a few years ago and like sheep we all followed along. No more geographic naming —that’s an order —-George Orwell is turning over in his grave. Of course, this WHO is part of the UN that has a Human Rights Council full of human rights violators whose sole purpose in life is to bring resolutions against the only democracy in the Middle East. Nice civilized crowd don’t you think?? We all put up with this charade every day and conti...

Khadr played upon the democratic freedoms and rights that Canadian have

WELL I CERTAINLY STIRRED UP REACTION when my last post went online , as well as other comments, which were made online elsewhere.  People opposed, to what I had to say, had comments which included the following:   Okay, I'm f - - king sick of the idiocy and done with writing a diatribe every single time a friend posts about how they're upset that Trudeau is giving a terrorist $10m. ... You people are.... willfully ignorant and hypocritical .. ·          God help us. What’s next everybody is “packing”, burning crosses, and having segregated bathrooms.  This rhetoric is disturbing.  Canadians are better than this. My mind is in awe of the number of people who have no respect for what being tortured actually means. Who foolishly think that they wouldn't break ... If our governments are willing to trap and torture people on foreign soil then we h...
