  • I think the move to call an election wasn’t fully thought out, but who wouldn’t call an election when your opponent’s side is imploding? But hindsight 20/20. The messaging from Eby is poor from day 1 of his tenure as premier. The things he proposed should have been announced even without the ‘threat’ of an election.

    That being said, 9 years of straight NDP isn’t going to magically fix 16 years straight of BC Liberal policies and spending. It’s easier to spend/sell assets than save/generate wealth. It certainly didn’t help with COVID in there alongside a trade war. BC Liberals effectively bankrupted BC.

    But sure, let’s vote for the BC Libs/Cons for more tax breaks…that will fix the budget! Somehow their words speak louder than their actions…

  • I keep seeing people saying ‘NDP has been in power long enough’, ‘their policies suck’, ‘they spend too much’.

    Well hello, it’s easier to spend than save. Who gutted BC’s crown corps? Oh right the BC Liberals/BC Conservatives/BC United side. NDP has literally just been playing ‘keeping shit together’ since 2017.

    Let’s face it, the province has been effectively hollowed out by 16 years of BC Libs. Go on, tell me how you’re going to somehow undo 16 years of faux ‘balanced budgets’ (vast majority of it was selling BC’s assets and cutting budgets that won’t have an immediate effect, but never reinstated) with only 9 years.

    16 years compared to 9 years. Tell me how one can somehow make more wealth in less time than you spent it as a government body.
