“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

David Eby and the BC NDP have resorted to outright lies in a desperate attempt to mislead British Columbians. Their false claims that the Conservatives support toll roads are nothing more than a cowardly attempt to divert attention from their own failures and broken promises”


John Rustad, Leader of the Conservative Party of British Columbia, launched a scathing attack on David Eby and the BC NDP for their blatant dishonesty and fear-mongering tactics. Rustad denounced the NDP’s shameless lies about the Conservative Party’s stance on toll roads, emphatically stating that the Conservatives have never and will never support toll roads.

“David Eby and the BC NDP have resorted to outright lies in a desperate attempt to mislead British Columbians. Their false claims that the Conservatives support toll roads are nothing more than a cowardly attempt to divert attention from their own failures and broken promises,” Rustad declared.

“Let me be crystal clear: the Conservative Party of British Columbia stands firmly against toll roads. We will never implement such a regressive and punitive measure that burdens hardworking families and businesses.”

Rustad continued, “The people of British Columbia are sick and tired of the NDP’s deceitful politics. While the NDP continues to line their pockets and cater to special interests, British Columbians are struggling with skyrocketing costs of living, unaffordable housing, and crumbling infrastructure. Instead of addressing these real issues, David Eby and his cronies choose to fabricate lies about our policies.”

Rustad then exposed the NDP’s hidden agenda, “What’s worse, the BC NDP is not only lying about our position on toll roads but is secretly considering a plan to implement a road tax. This road tax will hit every driver in our province, further squeezing the already overstretched budgets of British Columbian families. This is a betrayal of trust, and it shows just how out of touch the NDP is with the realities facing our people.”


In a promise to the people of British Columbia, Rustad stated, “Under my leadership, the Conservative Party will prioritize the needs of everyday British Columbians. We will invest in infrastructure without resorting to tolls or road taxes. We will fight for lower taxes, better healthcare, and a more prosperous future for all. Unlike the BC NDP, we won’t make empty promises. We will deliver results.”

Rustad concluded with a rallying call to British Columbians, “Join us in rejecting the NDP’s lies and deceit. Stand with the Conservative Party of British Columbia as we fight for truth, integrity, and a government that truly serves the people. Together, we will build a better, toll-free and tax-free future for our province.”

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...
