“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

We must take immediate and aggressive action to ensure our streets are safe for everyone. Our community deserves better" ~~ Melissa De Genova


The Conservative Party of British Columbia expresses deep concern and condemnation following the recent violent incidents on Granville Street, where three individuals were stabbed by a stranger. This alarming event underscores the urgent need for decisive public safety measures to address crime in our communities.

Melissa De Genova, the Conservative Party candidate for Vancouver-Yaletown, issued the following statement:

"The safety and security of our residents are of paramount importance. The recent stabbings on Granville Street are an unacceptable affront to the safety of our community. We must take immediate and aggressive action to ensure our streets are safe for everyone. Our community deserves better, and we will not tolerate such senseless acts of violence."

John Rustad, Leader of the Conservative Party of British Columbia, also commented on the incident:

"his violent attack is a stark reminder that we need to get tough on crime. It is clear that our current approach to public safety is failing. We need to empower our law enforcement with the resources they need and implement stringent measures to deter criminals. Our party is committed to making our streets safer and ensuring that those who commit such heinous acts face the full force of the law."

The Conservative Party of British Columbia expresses gratitude that all those stabbed are alive and recovering.

We call on the provincial government to take immediate action to enhance public safety and provide the necessary support to law enforcement agencies. By implementing robust safety measures and taking a firm stand against crime, we can create a safer environment for all British Columbians.

GIESBRECHT: Thank you everyone; and to Ward and Peter ... I'll see you in Victoria

I want to thank everyone who has shown me support in preparation for this Fall's critical provincial election. As a candidate, my only goal has always been to remove the dangerous Eby NDP from Victoria, and in doing so, improve the quality of life for the people of BC. This has not changed, and I am excited to now have the opportunity to deepen my ties in the riding of Vernon - Lumby as their representative for the Conservative Party of BC. I wish nothing but a Blue Wave to wash over Kamloops - Centre and Kamloops - North Thompson. I know know the team will excel going into October. Thank you everyone; and to Ward and Peter ... I'll see you in Victoria. For information on the campaign for Vernon - Lumby, and Dennis Giesbrecht, CLICK HERE From the Armchair Mayor: Giesbrecht moves into vacant Vernon spot for Conservatives

Nine major sawmills have closed in the past 18 months, and contractors and businesses are fleeing the province,” said Rustad. “Forestry isn’t just an industry—it’s the backbone of our province, supporting communities, families, and our economy. The NDP’s hostility towards this vital sector shows conte
