Absolutely bewildering that so many people are wanting to vote out the party that has done so much for this province after nearly 2 decades of corruption.
I know right how do people look at Alberta and think to themselves “yes we want that here”
a duplicate Alberta is the last thing we need😬
Head in sand.
John Rustad is soo gross.
Yep. Just anoth ghoul looking to jump in the top seat to fill his pockets.
Corporations are clamouring for control as they’re obsessed with sabotaging any place that is highly developed
You don't understand them because you are not willing to be friends with someone who strongly disagrees with what you believe in.
It's sad that people of different faiths and religions can be great friends, but people of different politics won't visit each other.
To be fair, not many people want that party back.
That’s why they renamed it in hopes that people won’t know any better.
Hey.
I’m your dumb neighbor to the south, we share the Salish sea? Sorry about the Salmon thing. Any way, um the NDP are corrupt you say?
I don’t follow BC politics
I believe they were talking about Christie Clark's BC Liberals - they were awful for the province.
Ah. Thanks. 👍
The Liberals rebranded themselves the BC United (BCU) which you can see in the red pretty much at the bottom of the graph there.
It was a little confusing before too because they weren't really "liberal" and were closer to conservatives anyway. No relation to the federal liberal party which the current prime minister is part of.
And now there's an actual conservative party which apparently is polling pretty close to the top. Which is what's baffling me and many others. We basically had two decades of conservative leadership which led to the corruption, different party but basically the same ideals.
NDP has done great the past few years and now they look close to equal with the conservative party.
They weren’t social liberals but they were still liberals nonetheless, and their position on the spectrum was closer to where most liberals are internationally, the centre-right. Take a look at Australia and Britain’s liberals for example. Only in the US are liberals considered to be the left wing because there’s only 2 viable options and actual leftists in the US who vote have to settle with being in the same party as liberals rather than having their own party, which the fptp voting system would ensure would fail. US media has not helped by misrepresenting the definition for decades.
The federal party is run by social liberals, which are centrist.
The most corrupt thing the BCNDP did was put up a referendum on proportional representation that was doomed to fail in order to keep the province a quasi two-state
If I were point at one thing I think it would be how we handled social media as a society.
