“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

I heard a man speaking the language of common sense. A language that I understand and respect

Yes … it’s me again ... it's been a long time since my last post, however, I have been VERY busy



This Spring as you know, after long and hard consideration, I threw my support behind the one individual whom I believe will make the best leader for the province of BC – Ellis Ross!

Day after day my decision is backed up repeatedly by people like Canadian outdoor writer, professional big game outfitter, and television producer/host for many hunting shows, Jim Shockey who just this week said of Ellis ... “The first time I saw this man speak, I did not hear a politician’s smarmy, disingenuous, patronizing bull crap pandering voice, I heard a man speaking the language of common sense. A language that I understand and respect”

Or this from former Cariboo Chilcotin MLA and former 100 Mile House Mayor Donna Barnett ... “Ellis Ross does not subscribe to the divisive talk of a rural/urban divide. He represents all British Columbians … (he) is the only candidate that can beat the NDP. There's a new generation coming into politics, and Ellis is the candidate who can win over this new generation"

And from Mission City Councillor Ken Herar ... "Frankly, (Ellis Ross) is a breath of fresh air. The BC Liberal Party needs change, and a new voice that welcomes everyone in. We need to stop putting up barriers. Yesterday’s insider politics aren’t going to build a stronger BC Liberal party or a stronger BC.”


Others, from right across the province, are commenting on posts I make to social media, and saying things such as:

We will forever remember that you stood up in the house today and spoke on our behalf. You have our respect ~~ Susan P.

BC needs your leadership Mr Ross. Bridging and healing the gap between urban and rural is an important element for BC to become a powerhouse ~~ Cameron S.

I’m glad I happened upon your video. You are a really excellent speaker and tell people how it is. Something that doesn’t happen a lot nowadays ~~ Dawn P.

… today I'm sitting here listening to your views and feel relief. Relief that there is someone who wants to make a difference, someone like us that I can relate to and that isn't promising the moon … I absolutely love your commonsense approach. I feel your sincerity. I truly hope you will get the opportunity to make the changes our beautiful province needs ~~ Dianne F.

Ellis you are a breath of fresh air in the political world. I love what you stand for. Achievements through hard work is one of them. It’s funny as I’m a conservative and your voice speaks to me ~~ Brenda F


And then there is Ellis in his own words:

The 3 C’s; Competitor, Courage, and Change:

In the BC Legislature about the drastic social and economic impacts -- on 1000’s of forestry workers and their families – regarding the Forest Amendment Act the BC NDP RAMMED through with little to no debate:

I’ve done things in the last 17 years to minimize the impact of projects in BC. I’m not going to do it for votes. It’s about truth and honesty; it’s about transparency and honesty.

Making life affordable … taxes, taxes, taxes – fees, fees, fees. Government said they’d make life more affordable … when costs go up for business, they have to get passed on to consumers:

And this, regarding a name change for the BC Liberals: https://www.facebook.com/ChangeThatCanWin/videos/531822701302511

 

NOW … here are three last things I'd like to leave you with:

1) Not a member yet? Go to www.SupportEllis.ca so that you’ll be able to vote for him on the leadership ballot

2) AND if you're already a member? Please send this email to friends and family. Let them know why YOU made the choice to support the leadership bid of Ellis Ross … and encourage them to sign up at www.SupportEllis.ca

3) LIKE and SHARE www.facebook.com/ChangeThatCanWin ... and https://twitter.com/ellisbross


The DEADLINE for NEW members to sign up is December 17th so please don’t set this aside for later … do it right now.

Thank you!

'Very good news' that Supreme Court will hear B.C. mineral claims case, Eby says

The BC government needs clarity from the Supreme Court of Canada on a landmark mineral rights claim, Premier David Eby says. But the lawyer representing the challenger says that they would have preferred the province respect the lower court's decision. Eby said Thursday it is very good news that the court will hear its appeal of a ruling that found the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and the provincial mineral claims regime are "inconsistent." The BC Court of Appeal ruled in December that the provincial Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act, or DRIPA, should be "properly interpreted" to incorporate the UN declaration into the laws of B.C. with immediate legal effect. That ruling set off the appeal from the province amid concerns that it could cause economic uncertainty ... CLICK HERE for the full story

EBY OFFSIDE WITH NATIONAL INTEREST AS CARNEY AND SMITH BUILD BC'S ECONOMIC FUTURE WITHOUT HIM ~~ BC Conservatives

IMAGE CREDIT :  CBC News   Prime Minister Mark Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith announced a landmark agreement today committing Ottawa to designate a new pipeline to BC's west coast as a project of national interest by October 1, 2026, with construction approval targeted for September 1, 2027. The deal pairs the pipeline with a new industrial carbon pricing framework and a fall 2027 construction start. British Columbia, the province where the pipeline ends, where the jobs would land, and where the export terminal would be built, was nowhere at the table. "This is a nation-building deal, and the BC NDP have been locked out of the room," said Trevor Halford, Interim Leader of the Official Opposition.  "While the Prime Minister and the Premier of Alberta were doing the hard work of growing the Canadian economy, the NDP is on the sidelines calling this pipeline a 'fiction' and an 'energy vampire.'  He chose petulance over partnership, and now BC ...

Kamloops - North Thompson BC Conservative MLA Ward Stamer speaks to Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act

The following is a condensed version of Kamloops – North Thompson MLA Ward Stamer’s remarks, to the BC Legislature, on the afternoon of Tuesday May 19th : I rise today to continue remarks on Bill 20, the K’ómoks treaty, and to address what I believe are some of the most important constitutional, democratic and governance concerns facing this Legislature today. At the centre of this debate are two major issues. First, unresolved overlapping territorial boundaries tied to this treaty process. And second, the growing legal and political consequences arising from the provincial government’s implementation of the Declaration of Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act, more commonly known as DRIPA. Much of the government’s defence on DRIPA rests upon references to the United Nations declaration on the rights of Indigenous Peoples, commonly known as UNDRIP. And this is where we must begin having a more honest and mature conversation in this province. UNDRIP was never originally designed to function ...
