“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

RICK PETERSON: I’d like to thank you and all our Centre Ice Canadians supporters for three significant accomplishments


I’d like to thank you and all our Centre Ice Canadians supporters for three significant accomplishments:

1. “Thank you!” for the strong support of Advisory Council Chair Dominic Cardy’s announcement last week that he’s leading a group that is launching The Canadian Future Party. If you’d like to learn more and get involved, please click here.

2. “Thank you!” for the strong fundraising support over these past few weeks. We have now raised the full $30K required to pay the final amount owing on the national survey that was a key factor in the decision to move ahead with the formation of a new party. 

As you’ll see further below, to fully wind up our efforts we’ll need to raise a final $3,500 for our last remaining legal and accounting fees - if you can help with that please Donate Here.  
 
3. “Thank you!” for your huge support over the past 18 months that has allowed us to host three policy conferences, listen to Canadians from coast-to-coast to coast, highlight key issues and voices that are important in Canada today, and take steps - by creating a policy and governance framework and harnessing the efforts of several hundred volunteers - to launching a new federal party. 

Our work is nearly done. Next Friday, October 6th we will be shutting down the Centre Ice Canadians website and social media platforms. We will be engaging an accounting firm to perform a final audit and financial statements, and once that it is done, we will be formally dissolving Centre Ice Canadians as a corporation.
 
None of the personal data we’ve accumulated will be shared with anyone. The Centre Ice donation portal as well as the monthly Centre Ice recurring donation subscriptions will all be shut down by Friday, October 6th at the latest, or as soon as the final $3,500 has been reached to pay our accounting fees. Again, if you can help with that please Donate Here.
 
Finally, next Wednesday, October 4th, I will give you a complete accounting of our activities, fundraising totals and expenses prior to us shutting down on Friday, October 6th.
    
With your support, we’re making history in Canadian politics. There’s a long road ahead, but what we’ve all done together in the past 18 months is truly remarkable and exceptional.
 
For that, our whole team at Centre Ice Canadians would like to offer our deepest thanks and gratitude.
 
All the best.
 
Rick Peterson
Co-founder & Director

Interfor Moves Headquarters Out of BC as Forestry Crisis Continues

NDP policies are driving businesses out of B.C., and the forestry industry just suffered yet another calamity. Interfor, a BC company founded more than 60 years ago and now one of the world's largest lumber producers, is moving its headquarters from Burnaby, BC to Atlanta, Georgia. As BC’s forestry sector faces mill closures and mounting uncertainty, this move is another warning sign that the crisis is deepening and conditions are fatal. “This is the NDP’s record: endless job losses with no hope in sight for the forestry sector,” said Ward Stamer, Shadow Minister for Forestry. “Interfor still has three mills in BC which are now in serious jeopardy, and it is likely we will see even more companies pull out of BC. The NDP government is suffocating the forestry industry with high taxes, excessive regulations, and permitting delays, while DRIPA has made it impossible to plan for the future.” “Decisions like this are sadly not surprising given the NDP’s indifference if not hostility tow...

Okanagan Farmers Face NDP-Created Water Crisis ~~ BC Conservatives

Okanagan farmers are facing a water crisis as government-imposed restrictions threaten to kill their crops and destroy one of B.C.’s most important agricultural industries. In perhaps the most water-rich province in the country, our farmers have been left high and dry by the NDP government. For nine weeks, Okanagan and Shuswap farmers have proposed solutions, only to be met with NDP foot-dragging. Now forest fires have come to these regions as they are simultaneously reckoning with a water crisis that has been made worse through years of government inaction. Vernon-area farms have lost 70 percent of their water, while Kelowna and Summerland growers face severe restrictions. This situation is unacceptable and cannot continue. Ian Paton, Shadow Minister for Agriculture, said the NDP is once again forcing farmers to pay for its own failure to plan. "Farmers and ranchers must be listened to when decisions affecting their livelihoods are made, and under the NDP, they aren’t," said...

NDP Hypocritically Admits Natural Gas Power Was Needed All Along ~~ BC Conservatives

The NDP just got caught buying back the exact kind of power plant it spent years telling British Columbians they didn't need. The NDP government announced today that BC Hydro is purchasing the Island Generation natural gas facility in Campbell River, an admission that its electrification-only energy policy was never realistic. The 275-megawatt plant was originally privately owned yet kept to a minimal backup role under the NDP, operating just 15 days a year on average. Now, with demand outpacing what the NDP's plan can support, the government is spending taxpayer funds on the very gas capacity it once treated as obsolete. "You cannot electrify everything and pretend natural gas doesn't matter," said Larry Neufeld, Shadow Minister for Energy.  "Buying back a gas plant they once wrote off is proof their own plan couldn't keep the lights on. It's a step towards more energy reality, but the government needs to go further and scrap the impending province-w...
