“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.”

FORSETH -- Focus on the nine things I mentioned. That’s what will allow the Conservative Party to win the next election

IMAGE CREDIT:   Darryl Dyck, the Canadian Press. I thought I had already made up my mind who I would be ranking on my ballot, in the Conservative Party of BC leadership race; now I am not so sure.  That means that, at least for me, and perhaps many others, it’s a good thing voting hasn’t already taken place. There were initially only one or two of the candidates that I thought might be a little too right of centre for my liking, now it seems that list is growing. I consider myself more closely aligned with what used to be called a Progressive Conservative, regardless, I feel more than comfortable within the Conservative Party of BC.  Some, however, in messages to me on my political Facebook page, have been rather, shall we say, a bit mean-spirited in comments they’ve made about my ‘purity’ as a conservative. To tell you the truth, I really don’t care! Some leadership candidates, in comments made online, have also been raising the issue of who is a pure enough conservati...

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 ...

Your government has a gambling problem (Troy Media)

Provinces call it “revenue,” but it looks a lot like exploitation of the marginalized The odds of winning Lotto Max are about 1 in 33 million. You’re statistically more likely to be struck by lightning than to win it. But your government is betting that statistics won’t hold you back; they’re counting on it. Across Canada, provincial governments not only regulate gambling, they also maintain a monopoly on lottery and gaming by owning and operating the entire legal market. That means every scratch card is government-issued, gambling odds are government-set, casino ads are government-funded and lottery billboards are government-paid. And these are not incidental government activities. They generate significant revenues that governments have powerful incentives to expand, not constrain. It would be one thing for our governments to encourage us to engage in healthy activities. We can quibble about whether the government should be trying to convince us to be more active or eat more vegetabl...
