@PropertyRtsBC @bcndp @KahlonRav @Dave_Eby @CityOfVictoria @cityofkelowna @CBCNews @CTVNews @cfax1070 @GlobalBC Section 36 of Bill 35 amends the LGA to remove the common law principle of legal non-conforming rights for STR use. Please solve the housing crisis without including illegal Section 36 that causes undue harm to law abiding British Columbians #bcpoli

[steve Gordon @mymaats]

It doesn’t make any sense. They introduce Bill 35 , that takes away our legal rights to run our legal STR’s for what they were zoned for. We can’t rent them for less than 90 days. They microlofts, then they bail out developers. We are the ones that should be bailed out or else let us run our business for what we bought them for.

The Carney Condo Bailout Fucktastrophe! I Won't Leave This One Alone: It's Just Too WRONG

To quote the Prime Minister: "Builders dont want to sell at a loss"

Doesn't mean the Canadian Taxpayer needs to make sure Developers get full price for their Garbage Units at crazy prices

[Rick Rule @RealRickRule]

the market has an answer. No subsidies, for anyone, ever.
If the developer wants to move the property, lower the price.
If the bank forecloses, they lower the price, and liquidate.
Are lower shelter prices ( affordability) a bad thing?

Sad but true

[Kirk Lubimov @KirkLubimov]

Let me give you a perspective on how slow and incompetent Canada is.

The US - NASA will develop a whole bunch of new tech, build a whole new industry to trillions of dollar and put a base on the moon two years earlier than it will take Canada to build a pipeline to the coast and a National AI with Indigenous context 🤦🏼

So embarrassing.

@AdamZivo @Charlie12635375 According to CBC, you are “Far Right” if you believe the colour of one’s skin should not matter. I guess Martin Luther King Jr. was “Far Right”.

I'm prepared to go to jail over this.

My grandmother Rita Pete went to St. Mary's Indian Residential School. She experienced terrible abuse. As a consequence, she struggled with alcohol use most of her life.

My mother was born with FASD as a consequence of her using alcohol to cope with her trauma.

I am Chief of my community Chawathil First Nation. I am working to address the longstanding impacts of these past policies through renovating homes, building new homes, creating childcare, and growing businesses through economic development.

I have interviewed people who went to Indian Residential Schools. I have interviewed people who believe Indian Residential Schools were awful, horrible schools, meant to remove the Indian from the child.

I've also interviewed people who believe they were well intended, generous investments by Canadian taxpayers meant to assimilate a society and had shortcomings.

Like with many things, the history is dark, complicated, and with any policy that existed for a long time, across a whole country - there were different experiences.

No one story tells us everything. No report shares the full experience of the individuals who went. No commentator today can disprove someone's lived experience with statistics.

The path forward is not to criminalize speech, questions, or debate.

The path forward is empathy for past attendees.
The path forward is truth based on facts.
The path forward is real conversations.
The path forward is to lean into complexity.

If the government criminalizes this, then I will be a criminal for having these conversations.

If I am a criminal by the laws definition, then I am committed to going to jail over this.

Kerry-Lynne Findlay is moderate.

What’s radical is believing in teaching gender ideology to kids, giving free drugs to addicts instead of treatment, putting the province in a $13 billion dollar deficit, and that you shouldn’t have private property rights.

[UrbanLandYVR @UrbanLandYVR]

@KahlonRav work on your own racist tendencies before slinging mud at BC Conservatives who just want the elimination of the radical @bcndp policies that have destroyed BC.

[Selina Robinson @SelinaMRobinson]

@MoAppel Not only did he not stand up for me, he denied my experience of antisemitism… which was far worse. Every other minority group is respected for their experience, except the Jews.

[UrbanLandYVR @UrbanLandYVR]

@Prominent_Bryan @jaycurrie Stop hating BC Conservative supporters! It is time to come together

[UrbanLandYVR @UrbanLandYVR]

@DanKnightMMA Way to come together. The enemy is the NDP, not 49% of the BC Conservative Party.

[Tim Pettit @Tim_Pettit_]

If the Haida Agreement is a roadmap to Reconciliation in BC, then, according to Grok:

- BC transferred 10,000 square km from BC to the Haida Nation;
- BC and Canada will receive no royalties from resource extraction from these lands;
- Canada will pay the Haida $59 m at the start of the agreement. Future payments by BC in the future;
- the Haida will not pay tax to BC or Canada;
- BC and Canada will continue to fund all government services to the Haida;
- no full settlement of Haida claims;
- Haida and BC to negotiate implementation of 'Haida law' to apply to Haida lands;
- private property protected by Haida Agreement though property owners are not parties to Agreement and, thus, have no rights under same. Furthermore, aboriginal title applied to private properties in Haida lands;

The Haida are one of about 200 or so indigenous nations in BC. So multiply the above by about 200. Is that sustainable?

Canada 🇨🇦. Trudeau and Carney wanted net zero, and they got it: zero growth, zero jobs, and zero productivity.

[Martin A. Armstrong @ArmstrongEcon]

Canada is a textbook case of how bad policy turns a resource‑rich nation into a declining one: attack energy, overtax work, bury business in regulation, and then act surprised when growth stalls and separatism rises.

[Thomas Cowan @koicows]

This single move was the start of Eby’s attack on property rights in BC that’s been snowballing into the mess we see today.

[Thomas Cowan @koicows]

In a blatant provincial overreach that shattered over a century of settled land-use rights in British Columbia, the David Eby NDP government has stripped citizens of their statutory legal non-conforming use protections.

Setting a precedent in BC for land rights; you have non.

[PHARA @PharaBoard]

Thanks @tomfletcherbc for this article.

"The cattlemen want to argue three points in the Pender Harbour case. DRIPA is inconsistent with Section 35 of the Constitution Act of 1982 because it doesn’t balance the interests of indigenous and non-indigenous people, it is beyond provincial jurisdiction because the federal government is responsible for indigenous people, and it violates the Charter of Rights and Freedoms by giving Crown authority to indigenous leaders who can’t be elected by 97% of the population."

@timthielmann All of the candidates are Conservatives. If some have history with the BC Liberals it was because that was the only other party right of the NDP capable of forming government. We must rally behind the new leader as that is the only way to put the NDP destructive era behind us.

[Mike @midnightriderV2]

I beg to differ.

Freezing the bank accounts of single moms who mustered up $ 20.00 to support the FREEDOM convoy, then laughing about was and is the darkest chapter in Canadian history.

[UrbanLandYVR @UrbanLandYVR]

@jamiljivani @cbcwatcher I remember when there was just “left” and “right”. Now the mainstream media only use the term “Progressive” to describe a radicalized lefty and use the term “Far Right” to describe anyone right of centre.
