You’re not worried about past abuses....so they won’t be changed ? Sounds like the budget will balance itself ?

Wow, best interview I've ever seen, great intelligent questions, main stream media could take lesson's from this man. Mr. Rustad will get my vote, more good ideas and common sense than any other political leader yet, and he's very knowledgeable about our province, big asset to B.C.

Great interview. Well done hosting and impressed with you both, well stated by the leader of the Conservative Party.

Holy smokes ! I like the common sense and smarts John has. I can't wait to vote and get him and the Conservatives into Victoria. Politics has certainly changed over the past number of years where we can have informative interviews like this to guide us. I like his logical approach to solving our health care problems, it just makes sense. Heheh ... he was sure quick on his response about whether or not to fire Dr Bonnie Henry !! I find his ideas on dealing with the drug problem is right on the mark ! The banning of nuclear power generation is SO shortsighted. Everybody gets so panicked about nuclear power because things like 3 Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima all come to mind. Three Mile Island was an equipment failure and human error, all with very old technology. Chernobyl was purely human error. Fukushima, well, I personally never would've built a nuclear power plant right along the shoreline where it could by hit by a tsunami. Could it have benefited from better failsafe measures, most certainly ! However, in Canada, we have developed some of THE safest nuclear power plant designs and equipment in the world. There are other fuels as opposed to uranium. One of probably the best and safest, even after being spent, is using thorium. Another fuel source I believe is a molten salt reactor. We also now have SMR (small modular reactors) technology which is a HUGE leap forward. A few well placed SMRs using a ridiculously safe fuel source like thorium could be *the* answer to our future power needs, at least until we can master fusion reactors ! Overall, I really enjoy listening to Mr Rustad, he seems to have a very centrist, common sense way of approaching things. I read some of the garbage I see in MSM and just laugh. Well, they *aren't* biased are they !?!? hahaha !! Conservatives have cinched my vote !

I agree with Rustad's views on speedy and sometimes mandatory treatment for drug addicts. However, where is the money for that coming from if taxes are reduced? On his criticism of Dr Henry : if he were elderly or immune compromised and admitted to hospital for any reason, would he feel comfortable being treated by doctors or nurses who had not been covid vaccinated?

When we stop dividing people, stop giving to one segment of society, stop allowing any segment of society tax breaks that others do not get….we will win. We can’t change the atrocities of the past, we can only not allow it to happen again. It doesn’t matter what the political parties name is….they have to remember that they work for the people. The elites can not control the politicians anymore. Good changes will happen when we have a ethical leader.

He said they've connected 300,000 people to family doctors in his administration, but 140,000 are coming in per year. Sounds like they're not even keeping up with population growth.

John makes a lot of sense. What the government has been doing doesn’t make any sense. It’s not working. Why. Keep doing it????

Excellent conversation ! I am ready for changes !

We need to save & recreate biodiversity in our soils, on our farms instead of following the US in destroying all in the name of corporate greed, monoculture, GMO, Pesticides, herbicides which are destroying our soul, our health, our biodiversity !

The people need RECOVERY PROGRAMS ETC....NOT DRUGS ! Voluntary & mandatory may be needed ! I will not be voting NDP ever again for this reason !

Agreed re Dr. BONNIE HENRY.....She went from hero to villain ! She is not the only one ,

So do the patients pay & travel to another province for cancer et al help ? !

Immigration is not the answer ....train & prioritize Trade achools to give our citizens & residents more employment so they can afford housing.....more 'open door' immigration....as in the US & Europe....is not helping housing, but destroying communities and skyrocketing homelessness !

I sure hope you would not cut Health Care ! We are already suffering terribly trying to get crucial help/appointments with doctors, especially Oncologists, other specialists & Emergency !

What is being denied? Is an advocate an activist who doesn't do anything? I survived public school. Who will advocate for me?

At this point, the government needs to prove that these Graves actually exist.

What a scam. Have they found a single body yet in the 'mass graves' ?

Anyone voting for him, needs to be a foolish child.

This man is one of us! Not our sworn NWO enemy..B.henry was evil

Fake man, a premier that’s insincere and uses gimmicks to create homes. Absolutely ridiculous just so that he can pay developers and he can get a cut.

John Rustad has to get into the main leadership role. I think he thinks the right way. He is very calm and level headed, and he cares about our province.

Unlimited money? Perhaps this is one of the reasons we hear so little progress on the anomaly investigations. Three years is an awful long time. Excellent show, by the way.

David Erby, World Economic Forum member, Communist Traitor along with Jackass John Horgan.🤮🤮🤮

Informative well interview, by both parties

People this poorly educated who don't understand science or economics have no business seeking office. How appalling.

Conservatives get my vote

Criminals no free jail living but has to work n learn a skill to survive after getting out of jail

Have manufacturing industry in rural small town area n they provide room n board or housing for workers .

govts of all levels has to cut their wages back to near private sector average wages , cut their pension benefits too ... just working so short time in politics can get so big pension are not fair to ppl who works their whole life away n gets so small pension , while those never contributed to the work force gets pay to near close amount . No wonder so many ppl will not willing to go out n work .

govts of all levels has to cut their wages back to near private sector average wages , cut their pension benefits too ... just working so short time in politics can get so big pension are not fair to ppl who works their whole life away n gets so little pension

Vote Conservative! save Canada, let us the younger generation, who are born & raised in Canada, have a chance at home ownership, hell, give us a chance at feeding our selfs without struggling, get the drug addicts out of the city, give real Canadians jobs, limit immigration. we can barley find jobs or homes cause, so many people are here from other country's. get the left hand fools out of here. even the bible talks of the evil of the left. read Ecclesiastes 10:2.

Jordan Peterson? 😂😂😂

BC if you don't see his view he needs to be the leader of BC

Wow. I can change my car over to electric for a mere $20,000-$30,000 as opposed to buying a new vehicle. Are you serious!! That is anything BUT affordable! for the average person, especially in today's economy.

So because 'racialised' kids to less well in school and are more likely to end up in jail, it is racism? By whom, the 'colonialists'? How much support do we have to give them when it is already to the detriment of non racialised kids?

This is how Truth and Reconciliation will come about.

What about the people lying on the streets like zombies, cost of living crisis, and employment opportunities drying up? It's time for a change, and it isn't NDP or Green!!

Only problem with Rustad is he has no chin.

You can’t work hard enough to save into an affordable mortgage, with student loans, and or working class income! How insulting and stupid.

I can't believe that this vacuum has gained so much support 😂😂😂 Didn't he not get booted from the bc neo-liberal party for being too crazy only to participate in this SLEAZY heist 😂😂😂 So much for democracy - and free speech soon to follow 👍✊👍

Finally, an injection of rational thinking into BC politics.

Nowadays politicians almost never directly answer a question, if at all

14:16 I've been paying BC carbon tax since 2008, is it not fair to say that if carbon tax doesn't affect climate change, then there is no reason to collect it? I chuckle with these climate zealots that think somehow a country that contributes less than 2% of the world's emissions can somehow positively impact climate change worldwide, and that hampering everyone within the borders of BC is somehow a benefit to the world while China and India pollute on a massive scale.

When I was poor, the GST/carbon tax/etc. cheques were a nice bonus towards that month's expenses. There is no rebate that makes an unsustainable wage sustainable.

I have found everything he said to make sense. Except the approach to drug treatment. Unfortunately both parties drop the ball on this. There are so many reasons that people become addicted to drugs, and so many reasons why that drug use changes. It is COMPLEX and there needs to be a full spectrum of interventions for people at different stages of the addiction. They all need to be evidence based. Unfortunately both sides of the political spectrum are ideological based in their approach. Both sides have failed because of this. Unfortunately Rustad is unfamiliar with the current state of mental health and addictions treatment. Apprehending everyone who OD's under the mental health act is materially impossible, and would clog up every psych unit and drug treatment facility in the province. The treatment substance users get on psych units, and in the health care system is abysmal. They are treated worse than garbage. You are just adding more trauma to an already deeply traumatized person by apprehending them. He needs to get a much closer look at these systems how they are in reality today.

Excellent interview. Questions were to the point and issues were not, “skirted, deflected, dodged” just answered. On the issue of mandatory recovery for people who have over dosed, I wish this was in place several years ago. My youngest sister had an addiction problem and was taking up valuable bed space, in emergency, on a regular basis. I asked the nurse whether we could get her into treatment and she informed me that all they can do is offer help once she was detoxed but it was up to her. She might still be alive today if it was mandatory as she obviously couldn’t make a rational decision at that point in her life.

Didn’t this guy get kicked out of the liberal party for being unelectable? Alberta seems to have generally gotten worse all around “ex” oil lobbyist, Danielle smith and her regressive ideology from a Conservative Party that can’t keep a leader through a full term, so I guess BC might get the male version? Sure hope not. Don’t like Eby, but this guys a clown that I hope we never get to see the repercussions of. ANY politician buddying up with admitted scam news reporter tucker Carlson has no place being a leader in Canada. The divisive rhetoric is to take the attention away from the real corruption of all government and the rich staying rich at all costs. It’s sad how easily it gets eaten up and we all get dumber for it and lack/too lazy to use basic critical thinking :( Russia won’t stop their pro right propaganda and if that alone isn’t enough to not vote conservative please just try to remember empathy instead of anger at a pronoun or some other dividing topic thing that has 0 impact on your day to day life. Are we as dumb as our friends to the south that elected a lifelong grifting, non bill paying, bankrupt prone, had to be put on an allowance by a bank when they would still lend him money b/c he was so bad with it, nepotist, Russian owned,convicted felon, rapist? Not saying Rustad is trump, but anti-science/vax shit is just absurd. Everything is corrupt, but it’s not hard to learn and research valid sourced information with fact checking. Type “Tips to avoid misinformation” or something. Confirmation bias is something we all do, but social media is a trove of garbage info taken for fact much too easily with the biases we all have. Just try to get legit information. If you’re rich and are cool with human suffering you’ll probably be better off voting conservative, or if you’re just so insecure about all humans having the same rights to be called what they fucking want vote con. I don’t agree with every “woke” (fuck I hate that term) thing, but it literally has so little to do with my well being I’d rather point the finger at all government and the lobbyists pulling their strings then go on in an endless cycle of anger at the each other the powers that be pull ours towards. I understand times are hard and people need to direct their anger somewhere, but things can and are almost certainly going to get worse without intervention not currently capable of our race with the greed of the ultra rich that the entire world economy is structured heavily in greed and corruption friendly less the odd scale goat. We’re nearing the endgame zeitgeist with capitalism and everything that caused the last crash in overdrive and possibly the “last” and definitely worst recession of our lifetime a few more billionaires underground bunkers being built away. Should be fun 😅

Another excellent show - thank you. I always enjoy the depth and perspectives in the questions and conversation.
