I'll bet you my first born child and a 🍺🍺 on that one #bcpoli
I've largely stayed out of discussions of the provincial election, but I'm here to set the record straight: I've worked on more campaigns than I can count. It is called the "Secondary Tour." Typically, every campaign runs two tours. Primary, with the leader, and secondary, with other high-profile individuals to bring a boost to local campaigns. Gunn and Elliott are clearly bringing their efforts to other swing ridings in their regions that they know are in play. This is totally normal during an election campaign.

I'll bet you my first born child on that ..and a 🍺. #bcpoli
Based on what I'm hearing and my own analysis, I believe Victoria-Beacon Hill will go Green for the first time tomorrow. It won't be the only surprise of the evening.

The chaos and disruption this party will bring to B.C. if elected will benefit the wealthy and completely upend communities and ordinary citizens. There is no honesty or dedication to the people in anything BC Conservatives are offering. #bcpoli
Saturday, vote Conservative.

Women who are considering voting for the B.C. Conservatives should watch this #bcpoli #bcelxn
Do the BC Conservatives have a sexism problem? Outgoing MLA @amboultbee reflects on her tumultuous time in the B.C. Legislature with a unique perspective as both a BC Conservative and a New Democrat. This is VANCOLOUR @CHEK_News 📺

Hey BC, it's time for you guys to pull an Alberta and shut this shit down before it starts
And there you have it, Aaron Gunn will run to replace Lorne Doerkson. Aaron has even advised his federal riding assoc he plans to step down now that the Liberals have a safe majority to run as leader of the BC Cons. nanaimonewsnow.com/2026/10/2…

Don't do it #bcpoli. #Albertans regret our decision daily. ##NeverVoteConservative
The damage @ABDanielleSmith & @UCPCaucus have done to our province is horrendous, and that doesn’t acknowledge the depth of corruption we haven’t yet seen. But we will. And every single person will be held accountable. Call an election now. You have no mandate to govern.

Guaranteed #FridayFeeling giggles 😃 😂😂😂
🚨 JUST IN: First Lady Melania Trump just brokered a CEASEFIRE between Russia and Ukraine in the trapped front-line city of Oleshky Melania is AMAZING 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Starting Oct. 29, both sides will halt all fighting there so humanitarian aid can get in and civilians can get out through a safe corridor About 2,000 people are still stuck in Oleshky, mostly elderly, along with around 50 children She built the line of communication by reuniting 34 Ukrainian children with their families Best First Lady ever.

Watch out BC. We may end up with racist homophobe Gunn as Premier if we go the way polls are hinting. Remember that you may be voting for a gentle & moderate-appearing Doerkson but he isn’t guaranteed to be the leader due to this snap election. You may vote lamb but may get wolf.
Disgusting! Abhorrent behaviour! This is who the BC Conservative Party emboldens and attracts. #NeverVoteConservative

Irony has died a violent death. #DanielleSmithIsUnfitToLead
"We are a party that is loyal to Canada, and we will support changes to ensure our autonomy within that framework." Premier Smith says the UCP has been a federalist party since day one, and that the referendum vote reiterates that.

A 150 MILLION DOLLAR POLITICAL HOAX. #DanielleSmithIsUnfitToLead
That referendum sure wasn't worth the money, the division, the political goal of holding the UCP together. It was a political hoax. Column. calgaryherald.com/news/braid… #abreferendum #ableg #yyc #yeg #cdnpoli #abpoli

There really needs to be a long list of people who nominate him for The Order of Canada
ALBERTANS, THANK YOU! Today, I am thankful for the 18,000 #ForeverCanadian volunteers that trusted and supported me for the last 18 months. I’m also thankful for everyone who voted to keep Canada united. I’d like to drive the Unity Bus into a sunset, but there may more to do.

I object that my tax 💰 paid for this baloney. Anyone else?#DanielleSmith
Today you have a ballot in front of you. “Yes to the Nine” means Alberta gets a real say over our own immigration, so growth matches the housing, schools and hospitals we have to support it. It means temporary programs contribute to the services they use. It means constitutional reforms that protect this province's authority no matter who sits in Ottawa. Vote today. ✅ Vote for a stronger Alberta within a united Canada. ✅ Vote yes to the nine.
