“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

KRUGGEL: Canada Election 2025 Prediction: Liberal Majority Government


It might be too soon to call it but I'm going to call it. Mark Carney's Liberals are going to win a large majority government and I'll peg that number around 190-200 seats.

There is plenty of data to accurately gauge a few things.

First, the Liberals are in control of the narrative of the election campaign. They've seized every issue first with the Conservatives following behind them usually trying to one up them.

Second, the Liberals have all the momentum. While that is something we really cannot quantitatively measure it is something those of us long time followers with some training in political science can recognize. This campaign is barreling towards election day with the Liberals riding it to the finish line.

Third, the polls are showing clear trends that are not changing. The Liberal lead is expanding by fractional amounts every single day. While Manitoba appears to be somewhat in play the rest of the provinces are all but decided.

The Conservatives will sweep Alberta and Saskatchewan -- that's it.

British Columbia, know for its volatile politics and wild swings was trending to the Conservatives just a few months ago with them leading at between 46% and 51%. Today they are behind the Liberals by 5pts.

Consider that the last by-election in BC in December saw the Liberal candidate pull in a mere 16% of the vote. Traditionally, the Conservatives could count on around 20 seats in BC. Today they are looking at 18 which is a low for them.

But the biggest reason the Liberals are sailing to victory is Jagmeet Singh and his mismanagement of the NDP. He has completely boned the NDP for the last 4 years rendering them irrelevant.

The NDP vote went from around 18-21% to 6-8% today. The NDP has fallen by 10 to 15pts. That's a near collapse of the party. They are still projected to get anywhere from zero to 7 seats. Let's just consider the growing possibility that the NDP might be kicked out of Parliament for 4 years. If the trends continue that is almost guaranteed.

Yes, it is increasingly likely that the NDP will have no seats after April 28th.

I do not believe the Conservatives or the NDP will turn this around and I am 100% confident in declaring Mark Carney and the Liberals will win a majority government.

'Very good news' that Supreme Court will hear B.C. mineral claims case, Eby says

The BC government needs clarity from the Supreme Court of Canada on a landmark mineral rights claim, Premier David Eby says. But the lawyer representing the challenger says that they would have preferred the province respect the lower court's decision. Eby said Thursday it is very good news that the court will hear its appeal of a ruling that found the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and the provincial mineral claims regime are "inconsistent." The BC Court of Appeal ruled in December that the provincial Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act, or DRIPA, should be "properly interpreted" to incorporate the UN declaration into the laws of B.C. with immediate legal effect. That ruling set off the appeal from the province amid concerns that it could cause economic uncertainty ... CLICK HERE for the full story

EBY OFFSIDE WITH NATIONAL INTEREST AS CARNEY AND SMITH BUILD BC'S ECONOMIC FUTURE WITHOUT HIM ~~ BC Conservatives

IMAGE CREDIT :  CBC News   Prime Minister Mark Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith announced a landmark agreement today committing Ottawa to designate a new pipeline to BC's west coast as a project of national interest by October 1, 2026, with construction approval targeted for September 1, 2027. The deal pairs the pipeline with a new industrial carbon pricing framework and a fall 2027 construction start. British Columbia, the province where the pipeline ends, where the jobs would land, and where the export terminal would be built, was nowhere at the table. "This is a nation-building deal, and the BC NDP have been locked out of the room," said Trevor Halford, Interim Leader of the Official Opposition.  "While the Prime Minister and the Premier of Alberta were doing the hard work of growing the Canadian economy, the NDP is on the sidelines calling this pipeline a 'fiction' and an 'energy vampire.'  He chose petulance over partnership, and now BC ...

Kamloops - North Thompson BC Conservative MLA Ward Stamer speaks to Bill 20 — K’ómoks Treaty Act

The following is a condensed version of Kamloops – North Thompson MLA Ward Stamer’s remarks, to the BC Legislature, on the afternoon of Tuesday May 19th : I rise today to continue remarks on Bill 20, the K’ómoks treaty, and to address what I believe are some of the most important constitutional, democratic and governance concerns facing this Legislature today. At the centre of this debate are two major issues. First, unresolved overlapping territorial boundaries tied to this treaty process. And second, the growing legal and political consequences arising from the provincial government’s implementation of the Declaration of Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act, more commonly known as DRIPA. Much of the government’s defence on DRIPA rests upon references to the United Nations declaration on the rights of Indigenous Peoples, commonly known as UNDRIP. And this is where we must begin having a more honest and mature conversation in this province. UNDRIP was never originally designed to function ...
