Latest Leger has CPBC leading in every region and in a statistical tie with women voters.

Very encouraging.

British Columbians,

If a government feels it can only move forward by censoring its own citizens, we have a huge problem. I believe we have a huge problem here in Canada, and it is showing up clearly in British Columbia.

When governments shut down opposition through legislation instead of engaging in open debate, that is coercion. It replaces principled, accountable negotiations with force. Progress on complex issues should come through economic partnerships and respectful dialogue that benefits all British Columbians, not by silencing those who disagree.

As Leader of the Conservative Party of British Columbia, I will take this issue directly to the people. We will fight it with clarity and focus. I was born and raised here, and I have raised my own family in this province. I will not stand by while governments treat citizens as obstacles rather than partners.

We can do better. We must do better.

Acquitted in a criminal trial after a judge ruled the complainant’s testimony “neither credible nor reliable” and the Crown failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt

Yet CBC’s Karen Pauls (with editorial oversight from Editor-in-Chief Brodie Fenlon) frames Carter Hart’s Stanley Cup run as ongoing controversy, amplifying “No means no” chants and survivor discomfort one year later—while downplaying the acquittal

Fact-based line for any broadcaster, including public ones: Report the verdict accurately. You may cover public reaction, but CBC doesn't get to relitigate acquitted cases in the court of public opinion, name the acquitted repeatedly, or treat “not guilty” as provisional because the outcome doesn’t fit CBC's narrative

This looks like contempt for due process and the presumption of innocence. The principle doesn’t change because the charge is sexual assault or the defendant is a famous athlete. Acquittals mean the state could not prove guilt. Persistent media campaigns by CBC against them erode the rule of law for everyone @brodiefenlon @CBCOmbud

The enslavement and torture of indigenous people was a dark chapter in our past. There were 39 distinct slave trading tribes in pre-Columbian North America.

This indigenous history month, take a moment to learn about how your Canadian ancestors put an end to these horrific practices.

Excellent summary linked below.

The only thing that stops violent men from raping you and your society are other men who are equally willing to be violent in stopping the rapists. The West has decided that the highest virtue is to quietly comply with the destruction of your civilization because to do otherwise is bigoted toward the rapists. It really is that simple.

Leaving for work this morning, I looked over and saw what was left behind in the cul-de-sac - a hockey net, scattered sticks, and the remnants of what had to be a 15-20 kid street hockey game last night.

And it hit me… I live at Topsail. A beach community in North Carolina. Yet these kids are choosing to play hockey in the street instead of the “traditional” Southern sports you’d expect around here.

That’s what the Carolina Hurricanes @Canes have done for this state. They didn’t just build a fanbase, they grew the game. It’s honestly amazing seeing hockey take root in places as random as a beach town cul-de-sac. 🏒🌴 Happy Gameday!!!

It has gone too far.

It’s institutionalized racism.

Section 35 of the Constitution Act needs to be repealed or amended.

It can no longer stand.

It’s threatening and taking land owned by private citizens, companies & taxpayers, and giving it to another race.

You cannot have two titles on one piece of land that fight for the same rights.

It also threatens our prosperity.

Here’s some quick examples of what its done:

-Pipelines killed before construction
-Private property titles in BC thrown into question (Cowichan Tribes ruling)
-Two Richmond commercial deals worth tens of
millions collapsed because the land title system can't guarantee what you're buying
-A grizzly bear "spirit" used to argue against a ski resort all the way to the Supreme Court
-An Alberta judge now using it to block citizens
from voting on their own referendum

Danielle Smith is the first premier to publicly call for amending it.

Every other premier should be doing the same thing if they truly serve their citizens.

Keep in mind, that First Nations received ~$35 billion just last year.

That’s nearly 70% of all GST collected in the country!

What other race gets this treatment?

None of this is sustainable.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

BREAKING: a BC First Nation just put in writing, to the BC government, their threats:

✅ They will block the Island Highway

✅ They will block marine terminals

✅ They will block Seymour Narrows, the only cruise ship and shipping corridor through that section of coast

✅ They will block BC Hydro dams in the Campbell River watershed

They will do it all, unless the K’omoks treaty is paused.

In other words, infighting for a land claim.

As a reminder, the 2022 Convoy didn’t block hydro dams, critical infrastructure or shipping corridors.

Nor was a formal threat made to the government of civil disobedience.

The Emergencies Act was invoked anyway.

So which is it: Is the Emergencies Act a tool for actual blockades of critical infrastructure?

Or is it a tool for political enemies?

🇨🇦 FUNNY 🇨🇦

Isn't it funny how in Canada our Constitution and Charter of Rights get treated like rolls of ass wipe when it's politically convenient, but Native treaties are treated like sacred, untouchable documents that can never be questioned?

And isn't it funny how the United Nations has its fingers all over indigenous policies, even though we don't vote for them?

And isn't it funny that we're called a democracy, yet a good portion of the Liberal Party has been infiltrated by the UNELECTED WEF (according to Klaus Schwab himself)

Globalists everywhere.
And isn't it funny that our Prime Minister is one of them? 👀

And isn't it funny how Quebec got two referendums, but Alberta can't even have one?

It's funny how "democracy" works.

Oh, and then there's the China influence.
Funny, I forgot about that...Oops!"

It's 1970. Elton John pulls out a crumpled sheet of paper and plays "Tiny Dancer" (my all-time favourite song) for the first time in front of his lyricist, Bernie Taupin, and Taupin’s wife, Maxine, who inspired the song.

⛔️Canada had the world by the balls… and we absolutely flushed it all down the toilet.

Brutal truth: a country can’t survive on nothing but government jobs, bloated bureaucracy, and delusional “plans.” At some point you need real people with the guts to risk their own capital, build actual businesses, hire workers, open plants, drill, mine, manufacture, innovate, and grow this economy like it’s supposed to.

We have every single natural advantage on the planet: oil, gas, potash, uranium, gold, nickel, forests, farmland, fresh water, world-class talent, and a rock-solid banking system.
We should be an absolute global economic beast dominating the world stage.

Instead, investors look at our toxic swamp of crushing red tape, punishing taxes, regulatory insanity, activist grandstanding, endless bureaucracy, and nonstop anti-business venom… and they just say “No thanks” before taking their money and running to countries that actually want success.

This nightmare didn’t happen overnight. It was years of deliberate, brain-dead policy choices: years of choking productivity with red tape, years of treating every entrepreneur and investor like public enemy number one, years of making it damn near impossible to build anything in this country.

And what did millions of Canadians do?

They kept voting for more of this garbage.
That’s the part that makes my blood boil.

When the hell did we stop voting for a better future and start voting against people like brainwashed sheep?

Pure emotion. Personality cults. Fear-mongering. Imported “orange man bad” idiocy. CBC propaganda and social media echo chambers pointing fingers at the villains while the country quietly rotted from the inside.
Investment? Gone.

Productivity? Dead in the water.
Young people? Completely locked out of ever owning a home.
Doctors and skilled workers? Bailing en masse.
Businesses? Sprinting for the exits.
Capital? Long gone.

And now some clowns have the nerve to act shocked?

What the hell did anyone think was going to happen when governments spent years attacking the very industries that pay for everything in this country?

You cannot tax, regulate, shame, obstruct, and demonize the engines of growth forever and expect the economy to magically keep working. That’s not how money works. That’s not how people work. That’s not how reality works.
Capital goes where it’s welcomed. It runs screaming from where it’s punished.
End of story.

Businesses chase profits and investors want returns — that’s the machine that creates jobs, wages, pensions, infrastructure, and the tax revenue everyone loves to spend. You don’t have to love corporations to admit that chasing all investment out of Canada is straight-up economic suicide.

And here’s the ugly truth nobody has the guts to say out loud: Canada has an aging electorate that controls every election. Retirees who already own their homes, already stacked their wealth, and already lived through our best decades.

Younger Canadians get stuck with the wreckage: unaffordable housing, stagnant wages, crushing debt, and zero opportunity.
Every election turns into the same pathetic emotional “stop the scary guy” circus instead of any real debate about growth and competitiveness.

That stupid strategy works… right up until the bill shows up.

Well the bill is here, and it’s a monster.
The most rage-inducing part? Canada still has massive unrealized potential.

We’re not poor.
We’re not out of resources.
We’re not short on talent.
We’re just completely lacking any leaders with a spine to stand up and roar: “ENOUGH! Let the builders build again!”

Because no amount of government press conferences, slogans, subsidies, or worthless reports will ever replace real private investment.

That’s the brutal difference between creating real wealth… and just managing our own pathetic decline.

@AlbertaCanada60 Tie FN compensation to Canadian GDP, lets say 34 billion is 1.5 % of GDP so lock it in at 1% so that a raising GDP increases FN funds. Guarantee the signs will change from ‘idle no more’ to ‘pipelines galore’.

You need to read this. I don’t even care if you pass it on. 💥

My husband attended a Private college graduation in the Midwest today.

When the audience was asked to stand up and take part in the Pledge of Allegiance- every Musl*m walked out. It was full of Musl*ms. Many of their students are subsidized.

If you love this country, this should matter to you deeply on so many levels.

That’s the post.
