Pretty surprising comments. We need to stand together to stop Conservative cuts. The only way to do that is to vote NDP.
I'm pretty shocked that Emily Lowan didn't rule out putting the Conservatives in power yesterday. They would be catastrophic on Indigenous rights and environmental protection, and countless other progressive causes. The answer to this question should be clear: rule it out.

Really surprised by this. We need to stand together against Conservatives cuts and division, not support it.

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

BC Conservative Sheldon Clare claimed residential schools created “opportunities” for Indigenous children and challenged the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s findings. In September, he wrote that “there’s a good number that need hanging” in a group chat. #bcpoli #cdnpoli

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.

Want to know what's really in the Conservative plan? Looks like you'll have to pay to attend a Conservative party fundraiser to find out.
Lorne Doerkson knows his plan will cost you - so he's hiding from questions about it again today. He's holding private fundraisers instead, and promising his donors things that aren't in his platform. Doerkson's hidden plan: healthcare cuts and higher costs.

This is personal. Please make an informed choice & vote. I’m a 4th gen #JapaneseCanadian & voting rights only happened in 1949 after being released from unjust incarceration from 1942 to 1949. Racist politicians denied rights & the Con party is on repeat. Do not let it happen.

I got my flu and covid vaccines today and the pharmacist who gave them to me is most concerned that shots like this and the RSV, which is free to Seniors 75 and over may not be available if government should change. I wonder if BCers realize how this is b/c we have NDP.

Post-debate, they all said it: the Conservatives "clearly aren't ready to govern." We're getting it done. Since 2017, BC has had the fastest growth in capital investment in Canada, and $130 billion in major projects are on the way in mining, LNG and clean energy. That's what steady leadership looks like: good jobs built here, with a plan you can count on. David Eby has a plan to keep building B.C. strong. 🇨🇦 bcndp.ca/releases/bc-conserv…

At what point do we start asking why people who sympathize with Nazis or believe being gay is wrong feel drawn to the Conservative Party? #bcpoli
Our local conservative candidate in Kootenay Central told a community member he is comfortable with all the Conservative views. My question is what are the Conservative views? 🧵 1/7

Can you really afford all this BC Conservatives chaos? – at Vancouver, British Columbia
Today Lorne Doerkson refused to say if there were separatists in his party. Maybe that's because his own constituency president thinks BC should leave Canada.

Great to see Pete Fry join David Eby today! Pete’s win showed what happens when progressives unite. Lowering costs, protecting health care and climate action matter, and we can’t lose the progress we’ve made. Only the BC NDP can prevent a Conservative government.
Thanks to mayor-elect Pete Fry for joining us in Stanley Park this morning. On a day when Alberta is voting on its future, we came together for one simple message: whether it’s Canada or British Columbia, we’re strongest when we stand together.

One thumb up if you want BC to leave Canada. Two thumbs up if the guy with one thumb up is your own riding association president.

Lorne Doerkson can't explain: • How he'd cover a $5 billion gap in his plan without cutting healthcare. • How much your car insurance would go up. • Why Heather Maahs is still on his team, after he admitted her comments about gay people were hateful. His answer at the leaders' debate? "Trust me." No thanks!
