BREAKING: Mark Carney is the ONLY leader in the G7 to lead his economy into a RECESSION. All other G7 countries face the same tariff and global problems, yet none are in a recession.
Excuses, speeches, buzzwords, and signing ceremonies do not grow the economy.
Canada is the only G7 country in recession because of Carney Liberals hiking industrial carbon taxes, kept anti-development laws, and doubling Trudeau’s deficit.
🚨JUST IN: Vancouver Whitecaps fans are asking Ryan Reynolds to come home and save his local club.
Vancouver is at risk of losing their MLS team to Las Vegas due to no suitable ownership groups in the area.
Ryan Reynolds is currently the co-owner of Wrexham AFC in England.
Thank you to the Guru Nanak Free Kitchen for helping thousands of Calgarians struggling to afford groceries.
Food banks should not be a daily reality in Canadians’ lives, but after 11 years of Liberals, far too many have no choice.
Conservatives will keep fighting to cap inflationary Liberal deficits and take all taxes off groceries so paycheques go further and food is affordable.
STATEMENT FROM VANCOUVER MAYOR KEN SIM:
The Whitecaps have been Vancouver’s club since 1974. Many things have changed throughout the years: the players, the logos, the kits, and the stadiums, just to name a few. The one thing that has never changed is Vancouver’s love of this team.
The Whitecaps are one of the top teams in the MLS, they were the runners up in last year’s championship, and they sit in the top ten of league attendance at an average of 24,000+ per game. While we understand that professional sports is a complex business, it would be a mistake for any team to leave a market with such a longstanding history and ready-made fanbase.
The City of Vancouver has done its part to create a path forward for the team’s future here by offering prime space at Hastings Park for the Whitecaps to construct a new stadium and entertainment district.
Now, we face the difficult part.
BC Place is owned and operated by the Provincial Government. In fact, it’s the only stadium owned and operated by a government found anywhere in the MLS. In order for the team to stay in Vancouver, the Whitecaps and Province must sign a bridge deal that will allow BC Place to become viable in the near term while a new stadium can be designed and built.
That's why today, we are calling on the team’s ownership to publicly and clearly articulate what they need to stay here in Vancouver, and we are calling on the Provincial Government to come to the table and make that a reality.
To all Vancouver Whitecaps fans, to the @Southsiders, and to all of the supporter groups, we need you to keep the fight going. We need you to stay strong, and we need you to stay loud.
Losing the Whitecaps is not an option. #SAVETHECAPS
With the approval of yesterday’s motion, now begins an open and transparent process to identify a qualified proponent to bring Major League Baseball to Vancouver.
League expansion is on the horizon and we know Vancouver would be the ideal home for a new MLB team.
This will be a once-in-a-generation opportunity to bring something really special to Vancouver, stay tuned.
