This is outrageous. No provincial govt should be able to do this without going to the electorate. @Dave_Eby has no right to pursue this path without consulting voters. And if anyone wonders why investors are avoiding Canada like the plague, here we are. Disaster for BC & Canada.

Fauci admitted in texts that vaccination during early pregnancy would lead to more miscarriages, but he pushed it anyway.

Fauci received a blanket pardon from President Autopen. The following people did not:

Dr. Theresa Tam: “Everyone, including those who are planning a pregnancy, are pregnant, or breastfeeding should get #FullyVaccinated to help protect against #COVID19 and its complications.”

Dr. Bonnie Henry: "It is highly recommended that people who are pregnant get their vaccine.”

Dr. Deena Hinshaw: “If you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or have recently delivered, please get both doses of COVID-19 vaccine as soon as possible to offer you and your family the best protection possible.”

Dr. Robert Strang: “Certainly, NACI has been advising that pregnant women get their COVID-19 immunization. … Again, it’s important both for the mother and the baby that the mother has the protection of vaccination.”

Dr. Kieran Moore: “Getting vaccinated can protect you from infection and reduce the risk of severe disease and complications of pregnancy.”

Dr. Brent Roussin: “People who are pregnant or breastfeeding should receive the updated … COVID-19 vaccine.

Dr. Joss Reimer: "A vaccination should be a health-care priority throughout a pregnancy, because pregnant people are at an increased risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19.”

The Public Accounts confirm what we have been warning about. The NDP is moving ahead with massive Crown land transfers while keeping British Columbians in the dark.

These deals could total up to 24 million acres. That includes large transfers based on unsettled claims, with almost no public consultation and limited democratic oversight. In some cases, public access to parks and recreation areas is not even guaranteed after the transfer.

This is the direct result of the NDP’s radical land back agenda. They have chosen secrecy over transparency and ideology over the public interest. British Columbians should not have to dig through Public Accounts or media reports to find out what is happening to land that belongs to all of us.

The NDP must halt these transfers, recall the Legislature, and restore proper oversight. Handing over public land on this scale without meaningful public input is a failure of basic democratic accountability.

@cbcwatcher More cheaper Teslas from China. Oh, and a handful of Lotus bricks.

Mark Carney was bragging abut how great things are and gave REAL evidence as to why...
So lets fact check it:

1⃣ "Creating jobs at twice the rate of the United States"
- A disproportionate share of Canada's job growth has been driven by the public sector and part time positions... especially during summer months, rather than high paying, private-sector career opportunities. In fact, the broader year-to-date numbers show that the Canadian economy has routinely struggled with heavy monthly net job losses. Despite these additions, Canada’s actual unemployment rate has consistently trended much higher than that of the U.S.

2⃣ "Highest level of foreign direct investment in 20 years"
- While foreign money is arriving (largely driven by heavy government subsidies in green technology and EV plants), domestic business investment per worker has plummeted over the last decade. Economists point to the fact that while many foreign owners are buying Canadian businesses (not creating anything new and often laying off staff at these companies once ownership is transferred) domestic Canadian capital is fleeing to the U.S. and other markets because of Canada's complex regulatory hurdles and high cost of doing business.

3⃣ "We can see the Growth picking up this quarter"
- Misleading. While there may be a minor quarter over quarter uptick due to specific, major project examples (like the Rio Tinto project mentioned), Canada is facing a systemic productivity crisis. While Canada’s overall GDP shows growth, its GDP per capita (economic output per person) has steadily declined. Canada actually sits near the bottom of the G7 in per-person wealth, meaning the average Canadian is technically experiencing an individual economic contraction despite the top-line national growth numbers Carney brags about.

4⃣ The carbon-neutral aluminum plant photo-op???
- announced in 2024, years before this speech. First production isn't until 2027. Capacity: 2,500 T a year. It relies on billions in taxpayer-funded subsidies and artificial price advantages through carbon taxes, rather than genuine market competitiveness, to survive. This initiative represents massive corporate welfare for a large multinational that fails to address broader, systemic declines in Canadian productivity and investment... and on its face, is not competitive in any beneficial way to the Canadian public at this time... or if the net zero climate hysteria eventually fades completely (which it already is in many nations)

5⃣ Mark Carney is painting a picture of an economy undergoing a booming structural transformation. The omitted reality is that the top-line numbers look healthy primarily because of aggressive population expansion and massive government capital injections into specific green sectors.

@ABsovereignist You'll pay a toll to B.C. to ship your oil to port. Ottawa will figure a way you won't be able to do the same to goods crossing your province.

[Chris Martz @ChrisMartzWX]

Just about every climate activist on the planet has center or far-left politics.

In fact, I have never met a conservative climate activist in my life. And when I say conservative, I’m talking about someone with real conservative values in terms of the culture war issues and having fiscally conservative / libertarian economics.

When climate activists bring up oil and gas company profits, what they are really saying is that they are envious of others who are more successful than they are. Just like all leftists, climate activists envy the rich and want Big Daddy Government to step in and redistribute wealth.

They hated O&G companies from the get go. They just needed an excuse to wage a war against the industry. Climate change became the perfect scapegoat to do that.

If you unmask a climate activist, you will unmask a socialist nearly every time.

Personally, I don’t care where our energy comes from so long as it is (1) sustainable and (2) affordable. I also think that the government should be hands-off and let consumers decide which technology (or technologies) are superior. This position allows me to be objective.

But I am never going to demonize fossil fuels because they have afforded us the best quality of life in human history, and realistically, oil and natural gas are not going anywhere anytime soon.

While EVs are indeed becoming popular in urban and suburban communities due to reduced lifetime costs and improving efficiency, unless nuclear is considered, it will be a very long time before air travel, shipping, and industrialization are powered without fossil fuels.

[Shane Wenzel @ShaneWenzel]

Ottawa’s forced electrification scheme forces expensive technology onto Canadians that many simply do not want. Worse, billions of your tax dollars are subsidizing it, even as global markets back away from these unworkable targets. It is time to return to common sense, protect consumer choice, and stop funding ideological mandates that ignore our climate and economic reality.

Today, there is another “report” in the mainstream media – written by the Associated Press and published by CHEK News – that slanders and defames British Columbia’s forestry sector, and the men and women who earn their living in it.

Using torqued and inherently biased language like "forest defenders" to refer to those who engage in illegal forestry blockades and obstruction (fuelled, no doubt, by the narcissistic belief that their political viewpoints should carry more weight than the rest of Canadians, and that the rule of law doesn’t apply to them).

The media also continues with the age-old fallacy that local First Nations don’t support forestry - using discredited arguments that place more weight on a lone First Nation voice standing in opposition than an entire elected band council representing their community.

The “report” also perpetuates misinformation that British Columbia’s forests are somehow running out of trees (not remotely true) or that the last old growth in the province was being logged.

In truth, 11 million hectares of old growth remain and millions of those are already permanently protected. It also ignores the fact that all trees eventually die, fall over or burn down and new, younger trees will inevitably grow and take their place.

The “report” includes no industry voices and no perspective from pro-forestry First Nations or professional foresters (from what I can tell).

This is the kind of misinformation and lies that have led to crippling anti-forestry policies that have curtailed logging, shuttered mills and left the industry that built our province on the brink of total collapse.

This is not journalism. This is state-sponsored propaganda.

@TristinHopper Based on the reactions to CCP infiltration into Canada, I question that'd be a wide response.

Special Message from the Office of Approved Opinions Regarding the Ceuta Incident

[Caroline Elliott @NVanCaroline]

Most British Columbians have no idea how much public land is being given away as part of the NDP’s radical land back agenda. 

In this case, its prime properties in the heart of our provincial capital, an entire provincial park and more.

Let’s get back to this simple principle: BC’s public land and parks belong to *all* British Columbians.

Back in 2024 Prof Sachs explained why Putin’s view is more based on reality.

US and Europe have a long record of doing bad things. They have no right to lecture Russia.

In 2 years his view has become the common knowledge of all participants. Finally!

[Ken Steinitz @SteinitzKen]

@Bsbcaer @HarmanBhanguBC So references to God by chaplains at public ceremonies are still allowed? That 'boundaries' language implies otherwise.

[Ken Steinitz @SteinitzKen]

@Bsbcaer @HarmanBhanguBC "Whereas Canada is founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law." In the preamble to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
Sounds like more of that 'post-nation' nonsense.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

This is essentially true.

However, it is possible to filter for exceptional people from any country. The problem for the left is that exceptional people mostly won’t vote for them.

[Ken Steinitz @SteinitzKen]

@yonkojohn The inflationary pressure would be as insane as this idea.

[Ken Steinitz @SteinitzKen]

@MaximeBernier Hopefully the start more judgements against politicians for their actions. As long as it's not taxpayers picking up the tab.
