I’m a federal Liberal who voted BC NDP to block the BC Cons from infusing Poilievre’s MapleMAGA DNA into my province. I don’t have a dedicated horse in this race but I’m warning BCers; Cons always bring private user fees, tolls, higher insurance rates, austerity and more debt. /2

/2 Human rights/Indigenous strife paralyzes our economy in the courts, anti-science policies bring illness, lax enviro laws bring destruction, & selfish, each-for-themselves legislation brings suffering to low/mid-income citizens. Look at ON & AB. Don’t say you weren’t warned.

Marnie Schuman, turned around and made this signal at the Indigenous protesters, against Aaron Gunn, outside. It's been shown it's not the only time. Boston Pizza asked Hartwell and Gunn to leave in the end. facebook.com/share/p/14sxDvh…

Seems the owner of Valley Oasis Hair Studio & Day Spa flashes the “White Power” hand sign during a protest against Sharon Hartwell and Arron Gunn . Gitxsan and Wet’suwet’en members had confronted the BC Conservative Hartwell for have a meet and greet with Gunn at Boston Pizza.

Don’t vote for the conservatives, you see what we in Alberta are living through, we don’t want that for you or Canada

If the BC Cons win the election Saturday, we still won’t know who the premier will be eventually. Doerkson will probably be pushed out by a far right element of his party. You may be voting for Doerkson but even he can’t guarantee he’ll be our premier. Unacceptable and scary.

@UnitedCanucks26Oct 20
Canada's $2.3B pivot away from Starlink isn't just about internet-it's a massive warning shot to Elon Musk over Ukraine. PM Mark Carney directly cited Musk's sudden service cuts and data restrictions to Ukraine as the exact reason Canada must achieve total strategic autonomy. No ally wants to rely on one unpredictable billionaire who can pull the military plug during a war. Canada isn't just protecting itself. The $2.3B contract expands Ottawa-based Telesat Lightspeed into a military-grade satellite network meant for secure Arctic and NORAD defense. Telesat confirmed they plan to deploy this secure system directly to Ukraine and other allied nations. Canada is literally funding the un-pluggable backup system Ukraine has been looking for. 🇨🇦

Why is every single Con on this app nasty, abusive, angry, hateful, intolerant, and vulgar that gets personal? Is it something in the DNA of that party?

Today, we are announcing that a re-elected BC NDP government will protect you from gouging and unfair pricing. We’ll ban ticket scalping and prohibit predatory algorithmic pricing. We’ll expand the power of Consumer Protection BC, introduce right to repair legislation and restrict the non-compete clauses that hold workers back.

Close election coming in BC. Will depend on so-called 'vote efficiency' + the party's ability to GOTV (get the vote out). Get yer popcorn ready! #bcpoli

BC Conservative Heather Maahs compared LGBTQ education to “grooming,” defended events involving blackface and mock slave auctions, and is accused of saying homophobic remarks about MLA Elenore Sturko. Lorne Doerkson still kept her as a candidate. #bcpoli #cdnpoli

BC conservative party candidate Mike Hicks declared, “The First Nations have to be conquered”. The First Nations Leadership Council called the remarks “deeply racist” and demanded a retraction. Hicks claims he was quoted out of context. Hicks is still a candidate. #bcpoli #cdnpoli

Watch out, BC. If the BC Cons win the elections, it will give Canada the seven Con-adjacent provinces needed to make constitutional amendments (along with the House and Senate, if those also change). This is extremely dangerous in this time of MapleMAGA-ised Cons in Canada.

Welp. It looks like the useless BC Greens will be helping deliver the BC Cons over the finish line. The brutal irony: the pro-environment Greens will bring the absolute worst environmental scenario for the province and won’t even have enough seats to hold the Cons to a minority.

So just heard the Comms director for the tradespeople working on the Massey tunnel saying what a disaster it would be for workers and taxpayers if BcCons stopped the tunnel,work. We have already put in 1/2 a billion $ and the 3 billion from Feds would be gone.
