“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

ALAN FORSETH -- Let’s make history; let’s bring about Change That Can Win. Let’s elect Ellis Ross leader of the BC Liberal Party

 


Tomorrow I'm voting for the future of BC. I'll be voting for Ellis Ross and his vision of Change That Can Win.

After watching and listening to what he had to say for several months early last year, I joined his campaign and became an active volunteer.

Why?

I did so because I have always believed in grassroots politics, and that to me is what Ellis Ross represents. He doesn’t have any agenda other than the desire for British Columbia -- and British Columbians -- to have a shared voice in seeking a better province.

As he himself has said, he is not your typical politician.  He came from simple roots, he worked hard with his hands, he was knocked down more than once and got back up.

Through that he has faced many of the same challenges as so many of us have.

Ellis has traveled this great province from the north, to the Rockies, to the Island, to the Fraser Valley, and the lower mainland and the Capital region meeting with thousands of British Columbians.

He’s seen “Beautiful BC” at it’s best – and he’s seen it at it’s worst after raging forest fires and floods. He’s always been the first one there, long before the governing party, because he wanted to see for himself what people were facing, and what was needed to help.

Ellis Ross knows that wherever we live, we are all proud British Columbians – no matter what our background ... no matter what our job ... no matter where we’ve come from.

It’s been said before, and it’s just as true today ... Ellis Ross is the right man, in the right place, at the right time.

Join with me and let’s make history ... let’s bring about Change That Can Win ... vote for, and let’s elect, Ellis Ross ... leader of the BC Liberal Party.

Budget 2027: After a Decade of Decline, NDP Budget Delivers an Assault on Seniors, Working Families, and Small Businesses

Peter Milobar, BC Conservative Finance Critic, condemned the NDP government’s latest budget as the result of a decade of decline that has left British Columbians broke, unsafe, and paying more for less.   “After ten years of NDP mismanagement, this budget is an assault on seniors, working families, and the small businesses that drive our economy,” said Milobar. “The NDP have turned their back on the people working hardest to make ends meet and the seniors who built this province.” Milobar pointed to a new $1.1 billion annual income tax increase and warned that the government is piling new costs onto households already struggling with affordability.   “This government keeps asking British Columbians for more, while delivering less,” Milobar said. “The question people are asking is simple: Where has all the money gone?” Milobar noted that BC has gone from a surplus in the first year of NDP government to a projected deficit of more than $13 billion this year, while prov...

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 ...

FORSETH -- Before anyone gets excited about one poll showing a candidate with a 25 percent lead, and 44 percent support overall, let’s give it a few more weeks

Is this based in reality -- how accurate are the numbers? In the past couple of weeks a couple of candidates, for the leadership of the BC Conservative Party, have been presenting polling results that they lead the pack – one even going so far as to say they have a lock on 44% of those who will be voting, and a twenty-five percent lead over the individual ranked second. I am going to say that this one, from Kerry-Lynne Findlay, is highly suspect. First of all the company conducting the poll, ERG National Research, is not a Member of Industry Bodies (the Canadian Research Insights Council), meaning they do not adhere to established industry standards for research, such as transparency, privacy, and methodological rigor. AI Overview states that ... based on alerts from the Canadian Research Insights Council (CRIC) and reports, ERG National Research should be treated with extreme caution regarding its reliability, and legitimacy, in conducting political polling. Before I even read this in...
