“They don’t kill you because you’re a fascist, they call you a fascist so they can kill you” - Andrew, a former Antifa member. When they can’t debate you, they dehumanize you. Because they don’t think you’re a fascist, racist, or “far right”—they need you to be one, so they can

While in Kelowna today, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre sounded the alarm on the B.C. Supreme Court Cowichan decision: "Judges better realize the massive irreparable damage that they will do to the future of this country if they undermine property rights."

@SteveKooner @grok how many different ways has the BCNDP undermined and degraded property rights, grandfathered rights, dock rights, and private property rights over the last 8 years?

Did he just call British Columbia’s founding a “colonial mistake”? Eby is not the guy you want defending your home and our economy from aggressive tribal claims. Wow.
It’s been 10 years of the First Nations Leadership Gathering — and this year’s was the largest yet. This week, more than 1200 meetings took place between First Nations the provincial government. It’s an opportunity to listen, learn and find ways to make a meaningful difference.

Are critiques of the Cowichan and Haida title deals really “misleading”? Or are British Columbians right to be concerned? Aboriginal law expert Geoff Moyse, who served as legal counsel on Indigenous law to the Province of BC and advised six successive governments over more than

The declaration of Aboriginal title followed politically partisan negotiations between BC government and Haida Nation with no public input.

Canada: your internet freedom is about to become conditional. Bill C-8 hands the federal government the power to cut off your internet—no warrant, no oversight, no explanation. Pair that with Bill C-9 & C-63, and you’ve got a full-blown blueprint for censorship and control.

As the BC govt claims to defend your property rights, you should know that Premier Eby’s own policies laid the groundwork for the disastrous Cowichan decision in at least 3 ways: 1. Pulled punches in legal defense 2. Policy precedent of Haida Agreement 3. Impact of UNDRIP laws

Let me try and explain what growing an economy in simple terms is. I bought a business in Victoria, it is a small Micro loft 320 Sq ft , overlooking the inner harbour. It was zoned to be able to rent out as a short term rental. I paid my property taxes, license fees . It was a

Thinking of a staycation in BC? Good luck. Sky-high prices, a shortage of rooms, and few options for families now with no short term rentals. Even vacationing at home is out of reach for many. The tourism sector is hurting when visitors can't find reasonable accommodation.
Having a made-in-BC vacation? You're not alone. Cheers to everyone supporting BC tourism destinations and operators this summer!

This might be one of the slimiest statements I have ever seen, Ravi Parmar is not telling the truth + Charleigh’s mum has the receipts to prove it. Note to Mr. Parmar, lying about your role in advocating for a sick child to make yourself look good is disgusting. #bcpoli

“How do you promote staycations while sabotaging the short-term rental market that makes them possible in small towns?“ Bird said in the statement. ”The premier (David Eby) says ‘travel within B.C.’, and then his government kneecaps our ability to welcome those travellers.”
