Just dropped this in my conservative friend chat. Can’t wait to see what happens.
You mean when they’re totally ok with it? :-(
Yeah voting conservative is a fast track to fucking up everything left that’s good about BC.
Did anyone watch the debate? It’s crazy how many people in their party had outrageous comments and views on things… especially racism lol.
I know they won’t win, and they’ve never (?) been in power, but the only one of the 3 in the debate that I actually agreed with was the greens :S
The conservatives will take away social housing, old growth and healthcare.
Unfortunately, they see that as a feature, not a bug.
And many bc voters are wanting to jump into the cliff of perfectionism wanting to spite vulnerable people by voting bc conservatives because the bc ndp wasn’t perfect.
To be honest, I would just like to be able to vote Green again, and not have to worry about the whole province burning to the ground because of it.
Proportional representation must first come before we all vote with our hearts. We need to pressure both big parties to improve democracy by passing the 2004 citizen’s assembly in electoral reform’s chosen system of the single transferable vote.
Eby’s already said he’s against it, and the Conservatives would never support it. Which means, we have no pressure to apply, unless we all collectively vote for our 1st choice, consequences be damned.
The problem with BC politics at the moment, is that the NDP has effectively abandoned the working class. And unfortunately, the vacuum they left behind is being filled by Conservatives, who are disingenuously promising to represent us. And even more unfortunately…most Conservatives believe they will.
Just look at the options in my riding. We have a lawyer, a bank manager, and a union representative. Guess which one is the Conservative and which one is the NDP. I’ll give a hint…neither one of them is the union representative.
I think the green vote is best in:
- Saanich North and the Islands
- West Vancouver-Sea to Sky
- Victoria-Beacon Hill
- Juan de Fuca-Malahat
- Kootenay Central
- Oak Bay-Gordon Head
- Courtenay-Comox
Than strategically vote ndp everywhere else.
Thank you! I wish there was some way to broadcast this list to everyone voting in those races.
Last time around, people were stupid enough to vote NDP in ridings where the race was closest between the Greens and Conservatives…which inadvertently threw the race to the Conservative candidate, instead.
People need to be very careful to check the polling before they vote.
(Correction)…I was thinking of the last Federal election, so it was actually the NDP that lost seats to Conservatives, because folks voted Liberal in ridings where the NDP could have won. My mistake.
They will win. Bye bye cheap car insurance.
Bye bye healthcare and stability.
Yeah, I’ll take higher car insurance over higher healthcare.
I live in victoria and don’t have those things anyway.
Do you have a family doctor and what is unstable?
No, of course I don’t. 8 years here and no doc.
The housing market and job market here are not stable
Oh geez thanks. Admittedly I gave up looking a few years ago. I should get back on it.
Please keep trying friend, weekly and monthly if you can.
Too bad Eby “Wasn’t interested” in implementing proportional representation. We wouldn’t be in this mess if wasn’t such an idiot. Oh well, guess we’ll have to vote for him again….….….…
Everyone will tout representational to get power, then do nothing about it to retain said power.
I’ve said it for a while; nobody wants to replace the system that got them into power.
Join a third party and push for prorep after this election no which way the results go.

There are no good ones in that party.
As a green supporter, I voted BC NDP this time around.
I live in the north. It literally doesnt matter who I vote for. Its 90% con win everytime.
It’s still worth voting.
Definitely will. I just know it wont matter.
When I lived in a 80% conservative riding, their supporters got really mad at me for not agreeing with them. What does that tell you.
If the jan 6ers were antifa why did trump pardon them?
