This is the biggest failure of the NDP.
Since 2019, B.C. private sector jobs grew 3.3%. Public sector jobs grew 46.4%.
They chased away private sector investment and created a bloated, and largely unproductive public sector with a $14B deficit.
The basis of our prosperity begins with a strong private sector economy. Since 2019, B.C. private sector jobs grew 3.3%. Public sector jobs grew 46.4%.

BC housing policy: Buy a second home? Speculator. Leave it empty? Vacancy tax. Sell within two years? Flipping tax. Keep it too long? Hoarder. Buy too nice a house? Luxury tax. Build new housing? Greedy developer.
"Trump scary" is going to be their justification for the election. #bcpoli

How the Conservative Party can win:
1. Propose a huge tax cut
2. 0 foreign aid until our healthcare system is fixed
3. The cultural mosaic is dead. Propose a new pro-Canada vision for how we all deal with each other. Just getting a passport isn’t enough to be Canadian.
4. Develop and promote plan to stop the over reliance of government contracts for Canadian companies. In other words, embrace capitalism. Encourage more companies to exist without govt subsidy/assistance.
5. End equalization or radically improve it. Who cares if some in Quebec don’t like this. The real conservatives who live there will get it.
6. Attack Carney & Liberals on every cultural issue. Every single one. Fire first and aim later. You will offend people but who cares. The outrage merchants get offended for 5 seconds then forget. Plus they already hate conservatives. Canada is so woke. Aggressively Expose this every day. This is low hanging fruit.
7. Be toxic when you need to be. “Elbows up” is the most cynical, anti-Canada election campaign probably in Canadian history. It’s so self destructive. It’s so negative. But IT WORKED. Sometimes politics is toxic.
8. Get busy. Now. Don’t wait until Trump is out of office
9. Zero or near-zero immigration for a long time. Illegals get deported.
10. Drastically slash funding for CBC/media
Deliberate inversion on display. Caring about those who shouldn't be cared about.
Deliberately done to destroy our society's moral compass and make us weak and pliable for the muslim takeover.
I am deeply saddened by the death of a New Yorker in City custody at a jail on Rikers Island early this morning. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones as they grieve this loss.
We do not yet know the cause of death, but we do know that too many New Yorkers have died on Rikers Island. The Department of Correction and its oversight partners will investigate the circumstances surrounding his death.
Our administration is fully committed to the critical work of creating better conditions in our city’s jail system and closing Rikers Island as quickly as possible.
If you can’t see what’s happening right now with the BC Conservatives, you’re slurping too hard from the machine’s propaganda. It’s a coordinated attack.

As people gather in Vancouver this weekend to celebrate Pride, we join in recognizing the diversity, strength and spirit of 2SLGBTQIA+ communities across BC. It's a time to celebrate progress and the right of people to live, love and thrive as their authentic selves. Happy Pride!

When it was individuals with empty homes, you and the @bcndp forced them to rent them out or pay punitive speculation taxes.
When it is the connected Liberal elite, you reward them with a bailout with our tax dollars.
This is beyond unjust, it is abuse of power and privilege.
Resignations are required along with full disclosure.
You say we got the facts wrong, let’s see the contract open bare.
You have exposed yourself along with your party and any media that defends this blatant obvious irresponsible abuse of trust.
Let’s talk about our plan to convert empty units in B.C. into affordable homes.
In B.C. there are thousands of homes that are empty while thousands of British Columbians are looking for affordable homes. Build Canada Homes is going to work with the B.C. government to fix that – by turning empty units, into affordable homes.
As we build up supply, this is one of the fastest and most efficient ways to get people into homes. Through this partnership, we will acquire units in bulk, at a discount to market value, at a time when prices and sales are already both low.
We could leave these units sitting empty or we could take action that will provide much needed affordable housing to 2,200 families and individuals. More details on the conversion of units to affordable housing will be available in the coming months.
This is one of the many tools we are using to increase access to affordable housing and only one element of our landmark agreement with British Columbia to invest in local infrastructure and build affordable homes. Reports that this will cost $3.2 billion are getting the facts wrong – that is what we are investing in B.C. to build more infrastructure like water systems, wastewater systems and local roads, while bringing down development charges to make homebuilding more affordable.
We know we need more affordable homes across Canada – and that is why we launched Build Canada Homes. Since launching we have announced over 11,000 homes across 14 partnerships. Already, 4,500 units have started construction or are set to break ground in the next three months. In B.C. that partnership is delivering on 1,100 new homes, including 700 which will be supportive and transitional. Paired with our plan to reduce development charges so that we can lower down the cost of building, we are creating the conditions for more homes to be build across the country.
To end this housing crisis, we need to use every available tool: build new supply, protect rentals, support infrastructure, and bring empty homes into use faster.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The plan converts >2,200 vacant unsold condos in Metro Vancouver (about half) into government housing.
In an oversupplied market, these units would otherwise increase supply and push prices lower. Purchasing from developer with public funds keeps house prices high.

Really appreciate the depth of @ikea’s sadistic torture method of making me waste time and money taking the blue skin off their cabinet fronts tiny piece by tiny piece. 😡
Do better!

"if it's such a great project why isn't the private sector financing it?"
Why is this question valid for a train but never ever used for a road or a bridge?

6 years ago today Covid was declared a worldwide pandemic. It also marks the date video of Chinese people falling “de@d” on the streets from said virus, and being hauled off on flatbed trucks by men in hazmat suits. The greatest psyop of all time. Happy anniversary🖕
In my opinion it’s neither. I actually think it’s the result of a baby/child’s body responding to the food it receives in the first 10 years of life. Pop, pizza, and burgers and you’re fat for life; it becomes the body’s set point.

20 years ago I was a left-leaning, peace loving, all welcome, hippy gal. I left home, got a job, ran a house and had kids, life got tough. I wanted better for my family, so I went to university, became a nurse, earned a lot more, paid a lot more taxes.
10 years ago, I was probably dead centre, I was proud that we had a benefit system, I was proud of the NHS, I was proud we could offer refuge to those in need. Sure, I knew people were talking the piss, but I could ignore it, it didn’t affect me that much.
5 years ago I was pushing right, it annoyed me that my neighbour who was on benefits was able to take his family on holiday twice a year. My husband and I were working overtime, paying crazy taxes, seemed no better off. It annoyed me that people who came here from another country were getting houses, fully furnished, nicely decorated, it annoyed me that these same people left their garden grow over, left rubbish outside their house. I’d see them on my way to work, going through the bags outside the charity shop, sometimes they’d ask me for money. ‘Sorry’ I’d say,’ can’t stop, I’m on my way to work’.
I joined ‘X’ about 1 year ago, learned about the rape gangs, seen the boats come in, seen very weird men all up in women’s spaces, read posts from people on benefits who felt they should get more. I got interested in politics, started reading policies and manifestos.
Today I am angry.
Today, some people call me a racist, or a fascist, or worse. But the truth is, I’m just like you. You might not be as far down the road as I am, you might have past me years ago but we’re the same. I just want a good, safe life for my kids.
I wasn’t born like this, I wasn’t raised like this. I was pushed here by a government who has constantly failed me. A government who has prioritised votes. over my quality of life, my kid’s quality of life. A government who gaslights me, ignores me, and threatens me when I speak up.
Why the hell did we allow this to happen?

Stuff is.
Some stuff that was, isn't anymore.
And stuff that would be nice, just ain't.
So we react to stuff that is, not stuff that isn't or ain't.
No replies permitted. Must be super popular!

@terrynewman turns out the Media Ecosystem Observatory (MEO) and its work, including that conspiracy theory study, are bankrolled primarily by the Canadian government. Specifically, MEO administers the Canadian Digital Media Research Network (CDMRN), which got a $5.5 million injection from the feds over three years starting in 2022-23 (broken down as $1.5M that first year, then $2M each for the next two). This cash comes straight from Heritage Canada's Digital Citizen Initiative, a program kicked off in 2019 to combat "online disinformation" and boost "information resilience" and digital literacy.
Bet their methodology would call this a conspiracy 🤣
