Until we see the Details, maybe these are the question we should ask: Did Canada walk away from a North American economic-security deal because the U.S. was asking Canada to choose between deeper integration with America and deeper economic engagement with China? What do you think was the real Reason?

We take this as a win and Continue the Pressure!

For years we've been told that BC's forestry collapse is someone else's fault. First it was global markets, Then it was the pine beetle, Then it was wildfires and Now it's Trump. But at what point do we start holding Victoria accountable? The BC Liberals weakened forestry through deregulation, raw log exports, mill closures, and policies that hollowed out rural communities. They left behind a damaged industry. The BC NDP inherited that damage and promised a better path but Instead, we've seen more mill closures, shrinking Annual Allowable Cuts, growing regulatory uncertainty, rising costs, reduced investment, and policies that have left many forestry workers and communities wondering if they still have a future in this province. And when the sector is facing one of the greatest crises in its history, the government appoints a Forests Minister whose background and experience are not rooted in forestry, resource development, or the realities facing rural communities, the put in @rparmar_BC whom only job was sitting on a school board and politics and no forestry experience. Many in the industry are questioning whether the government is serious about rebuilding the sector or simply managing its decline. Forestry is not just another file in a minister's office, It is thousands of jobs, It is hundreds of communities, It is billions in economic activity and It is one of the 4 pillared industries that helped build British Columbia. Yet investment continues to leave, mills continue to close, workers continue to lose their livelihoods, and families continue to wonder whether their children will have a future in the communities they call home. Forestry built British Columbia, It funded schools, hospitals, roads, and public services across this province. Today, many of the people who depend on that industry feel abandoned by the very politicians entrusted with protecting it. Maybe the real question isn't whether the BC Liberals or the BC NDP are more responsible, Maybe the real question is why, after decades of political promises from both parties, forestry workers are still paying the price for decisions made in Victoria. Do you believe BC's forestry crisis is primarily the result of government policy failures, or are external factors like markets, beetles, wildfires, and tariffs the bigger cause? And what would you do differently to save BC's forestry sector?

Midwives were meant to bring life into the world, not end it. For generations, midwifery has been about supporting mothers, protecting babies, guiding families through pregnancy, and celebrating the miracle of childbirth. It was never meant to become another arm of the abortion industry. British Columbia should be the BEST place in the world to raise children and start a family. We should be encouraging life, supporting young parents, strengthening families, and making motherhood something valued and respected again. Instead, the BC NDP under David Eby celebrates expanding abortion access through professions that many people associate with childbirth and maternal care. A lot of British Columbians are asking: why are we moving midwives further away from delivering babies and closer toward administering abortion drugs? At a time when birth rates are falling, families are struggling with affordability, and young people are losing hope about having children, shouldn’t our focus be on making BC more family-friendly instead of normalizing abortion at every level of healthcare? A compassionate society should support women through pregnancy, not treat unborn life as disposable. Midwives should be champions for mothers and babies, helping bring new life safely into the world, because every child is a future British Columbian with value and potential. BC should stand for strong families, healthy communities, and a culture that welcomes children, not one that turns life into a political talking point. What do you think? Should midwives stay focused on childbirth and maternal care instead of abortion services?

We are live

What is happening inside the BC Conservative movement right now should concern every grassroots member who helped build this party. Azim Jiwani, former Chief of Staff to John Rustad, is now backing Caroline Elliott. This is not just another endorsement, it is a clear signal that the same insider network that helped shift the party away from its base is regrouping. Jiwani’s track record raises serious questions. As Rustad’s Chief of Staff and a backroom enforcer, he played a role in promoting Morgane Oger through Progress Vancouver during the 2022 Vancouver municipal election, a party led by Mark Marissen, the former husband of Christy Clark. He also worked with Centre Ice Conservatives, a group that opposed Pierre Poilievre. Taken together, this reflects an establishment political approach rather than grassroots conservatism. We have seen this pattern before. The BC Liberals spent years drifting toward the centre, diluting their principles in the name of electability, and eventually collapsing under the weight of that approach. Now many of those same influences appear to be circling the BC Conservatives. The endorsements surrounding Elliott reinforce that concern. When figures like Jason Kenney, Gordon Campbell, and now Jiwani all align in the same direction, it raises a fundamental question about whether this is truly a conservative renewal or simply a rebranding of the same political class. The reality is straightforward. When a party moves away from its base, it loses its identity. It begins to avoid difficult issues, soften its positions, and try to appeal to everyone at once. That includes core concerns such as parental rights, education transparency, SOGI policies, and decisions involving minors. Trust is not built by avoiding these topics but by addressing them with clarity and conviction. Grassroots members did not walk away from the old system just to rebuild it under a new name. They were looking for something grounded in principle and accountability. This is the fork in the road. One path leads back to insider-driven politics, while the other is rooted in conviction and a clear reflection of member values. That is why many are now looking to Kerry-Lynne Findlay, who has demonstrated consistency and a willingness to stand firm rather than shift with political pressure. At this point, every member needs to ask a simple question. Are we building something new, or are we being led back to what we tried to replace? The answer is becoming harder to ignore.
