I would love to see a minority government with the Greens holding 6-8 seats. And I hope Emily Lowan sticks to her guns and forces the NDP to sign an agreement that bring forth proportional representation in our next provincial election.
That would literally guarantee nothing would get done, and we'd have another election in a couple of years. A Green vote is a wasted vote, unless it dilutes the NDP vote..

Shame we don't have a party (with a chance of winning) that is similar to Carney. I don't like what the NDP have done but the Cons are the only choice? :(

This group of people makes me sick.

It's a pretty sad day when masked racist assholes openly try to intimidate the First Nations groups and supporters with this kind of crap. But they don't have the courage to show their faces of course. This is hate, pure and simple and these clowns should be rounded up and arrested. There should be no place for this in BC today, nor Canada, nor anywhere else for that matter.

It's a BC story, but I certainly blame MAGA and the dumbing down of the world led by the US for this kind of crap happening. Holocaust deniers are arrested in Canada, but residential school deniers seem to get a pass. Anyone with any kind of common sense or a decent level of intelligence should think this is abhorrent. If you support it, I pity you. Any politician that doesn't condemn it or worse, supports it, ought to lose badly next month.

A great deal can get done with minority governments and the legislation is well thought through as it is determined through consensus and positive dialogue. A vote is not a waste unless the voter has thrown darts at the wall!

The new conservative leaders are not the whack jobs the party had bounced around with previously. Under Rustad (and arguably with more diversity in candidates last election), they almost defeated Eby, and could have with couple of more popular candidate decisions.

Now, rejoice! Ding-Dong the wacko witch is dead. The centrist moderates with actual records and experience are at the helm now, albeit for a short time only until the election, but finally, common sense prevails.

Eby and the NDP are a compete fucking failure, raising taxes, bunkrupting the province, driving away investment, screwing up DRIPA, and underperforming on social programs they hold so dear. Hospital shutdowns on their watch? Sure blame the bully to the south for that too. Morons.

Despite the flux with the Conservatives, they are clearly the opposition. They are more like a mosaic of Liberals, Progressives/Socreds, and Conservatives all gunning for Eby. And if people hear moderate/centric views from the leaders and their local candidates in the weeks to come, they could well shove Eby’s fuckups so far up his ass he will be ruined forever. Let us pray.

And as a horse owner and fan of racing, Eby and his fuckups destroyed about $700M of the agri-economy by fucking the horsemen in the Hastings Park fiasco. Its complicated and this is not the forum to get into it, but suffice to say that every race horse represents a myriad of tax payers and downstream businesses deep into the farming communities of the province, gone because of these morons.

Add in fuck up K.Sims and the ABC idiots and the Hastings closure is just so representative of what is wrong in the province.

(Not to hijack the provincial election but while on the soap box, may I say that the only Vancouver civic group that voted against allowing carte blanche for council to just pass developments was TEAM - and that meant the only civic party that actually wanted to make sure there was a due process about development in any area of the city ... just in case you wanted to know why you were never notified of a new high rise about to spring up next door to your place)

Voting now a days is just sea sawing back and forth from one bad choice to another. Based on which choice you have had enough of , until you can’t stand the other anymore , and flip flop again .
