just so everyone is clear: this is only the first conservative government in BC in 90+ years *in name only*. social credit and the BC liberals were conservatives and they governed for decades. there’s a reason christy clark and gordon campbell were campaigning for the cons.

landslide win for an unapologetically left party in vancouver + massive failure of the ndp after moving right = they have to move even father right, even further accommodate racists, according to the province's most enlightened centrists.

The Conservatives didn’t win as much as the NDP lost. The Conservatives got 50,000 less votes than 2024. Both the Vancouver and provincial election show a rejection of neoliberalism and that people want bold system-change ideas, not milquetoast centrism.

The entire BC NDP shoulders the blame for this by totally ratfucking Anjali Appadurai by the way. Eby couldn't win on his own in the first place because his political instincts have been dog shit from day one and even casual observers could see this happening a mile out

Replying to @Cam_Oflage
A cynical, vain, uncharismatic technocrat who believed in nothing beyond poll-chasing &his own superior cleverness No real political skill other than Littlefingering his way to the top of party's internal politics, eventually leaving it w barely any veteran hands OR rising stars

“Pulling an Eby” has officially entered the Canadian political lexicon

reminder that David Eby wasn’t elected by people into party leadership - he was essentially appointed into premiership when the BCNDP party brass blocked Anjali Appadurai because she got people excited - a major scandal - he became the leader by default without a vote, then this

Record low progressive turnout across the province. That means problems in communication and ground game at the BC NDP more than anything

My prediction for the coming five years: - SOGI & DRIPA repealed - strikes in multiple sectors - pipelines built - tunnel canceled & a bridge planned but not built for Massey, massive cost overruns AGAIN - $10 daycare canceled - ICBC privatized, rates soar

although Canada’s number one agricultural crop is Boy Pundits, we still haven’t perfected the growth medium formula so we get all kinds of variations

Watching hardcore BCNDP supporters blame everyone except the megalomaniac who did this is a trip.

Also its very important that everyone makes fun of David Eby relentlessly. Whenever you sit on your own balls, thats "pulling an Eby". Whenever you trip into a rube Goldberg machine and get dunked in manure, thats an "Eby Move"

There's a silver lining to every cloud, and the silver lining of this cloud is BC is freed of David Eby’s extremely bad political instincts

Someone remind Jeff Furrier and Michael Gardiner that Anjali Appadurai would have never called a snap election

Dave Barrett asked if we were “here for a good time or a long time” and Dave Eby chose neither

the full slate of @COPEVancouver was elected a couple weeks ago with housing as their number one platform item, it is still very much shaping city politics

The housing crisis is no longer shaping big-city politics. Why not? theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…

The housing crisis is no longer shaping big-city politics. Why not?

In both Vancouver and Toronto, debates about planning and housing have been blunted by a lull in the market and rising housing supply. But experts say that is a temporary reprieve

BC is about to elect a far right government due to the spineless antics of neoliberals. Calling an election no one wanted while governing from the centre right as a so called soc dem political party
Red-Green Alliance@RedGreenBCApr 20
Crazy thing about Eby is that he literally didn't have to do ANY of this shit. Heard him described as constantly searching for things to Pragmatically Sacrifice. His staff is a hot mess of rando lawyers giving shitty advice. Most Democrat-coded Canadian politician I've ever seen.
