Right wing?
Why not conservative?
Because right wing is a reactionary term, and shows your progressive bias.
Wrong Christie....we voted and held our noses....bye bye NDP and United...
No way ! BC Conservatives will win n their own !
Don't count on it
I agree...nobody wants the old So-creds or the NDP under Eby
@@asmith8947Most polls are now putting conservatives in the lead…so yes we’ll count on it .
BC Conservatives don’t need the bc liberals to weigh them down…
I don't agree with Liberal NDP policies. I'll wear the right wing label with pride.
Hell no
Crusty Clark ruined this province
You got that right..... BC Liberals(now United) are the biggest bunch of bought and paid for 'special interest' ass kissers on the planet !
Yes she did
Wasn't Cristy found to own four (4) homes in Vancouver & Victoria combined? 😂😮😅😊
Crispy Clunk. Had enough of hearing her voice. Time for a new direction without these relics of the past, United and NDP. Time to vote for the BC Conservatives.
@@blbatled1
😂😂😂 - I'm assuming that you're being facetious?
NO MERGERS
Most important thing is to get rid of the NDP, whatever it takes.
Ndp is democrat progressive its not the old ndp . PROGRESSIVE MEANS SOMETHING ALL TOGETHER DIFFERENT
there is something mentally wrong with BC. Over $2/litre gas, jobs disappearing, addicts everywhere, but still voting NDP.
Publicly subsidized employees want that pay raise.
Geezuz.... I still remember the absolute FAWKING DISASTER that was the BC Liberals(now United).... who were the most CONservative bunch of a** hats than any other CON job !
In my view the NDP have done far better job on their worst day than the BC Liberal "United' would ever do.... bunch of Sell-Outs !
As a BC resident, I can confirm you're absolutely right.
Some Liberal/NDP voters that keep voting Liberal/NDP, continue to bang their heads on the wall wondering why everything is still unaffordable.
@@alexiapucci4482 There is no Liberal party in BC.
No to David Eby and Jagmeet Singh.
They should do whatever it takes to get rid of these out of touch losers that are currently in power
Experts attribute BC's poor economy to interest rates, inflation and other external factors, which have a larger effect on this province. None of that will change no matter who forms the next government.
Which experts are these? All the failures in businesses I've seen are a result of government regulation, especially in the agriculture sector. You need to educate yourself on exactly how the ALC Tribunal system works. Here's a clue: very corrupt regimes use tribunal systems.
And you think that sounds plausible based on all the stupid choices you've seen and are living through....
@@norrislaitinen5011 You would want to establish a connection between policies you dislike and consequences.
I guess they must want to start throwing Grandmother's in jail again.
Imagine the nerve to oppose giving greedy developers a billion dollar taxpayer subsidy.
You can feel the big money in the background on this one - a loose affiliation of millionaires and billionaires.
These are days of lasers in the jungle, lasers in the jungle somewhere...
This is encouraging. Seems Mr. Falcon has seen the writing on the wall.
Anything we need to do to get the NDP out.
This country is falling apart
Been hearing that for the last 60 years.
Why is it that parties like Reform, Wild Rose and the BC Conservatives break from the main right-wing party, then say they have to unite the right?
It's basically them declaring war on the old PC types because they smell weakness.
Yes...the only way forward is together. Look at what happened with fragmented Conservative parties in Alberta...we ended up with Nutley
Yes both parties should merge as voter if become government
The liberal party rebranded as BC united wants to ride the conservative coat tails 🤣 Too funny!!
You mean the old Social Credit party that hijacked the Liberal name?
Nah. They should pack their briefcases and move to Albertewan and join the other wingnuts.
Maybe the Proportional Representation electoral system can be born for all levels of government elections ? Then, the sanity of knowing every vote counts is finally a reality in Canada ?
Maybe it's time for an absolutist constitution or referendum democracy and get real ethics or real democracy.
NO! Absolutely not! John Rustad's support is growing due to the strong Conservative principles we need here in BC. I have no respect or trust for the BC United Party nor any of these characters speaking up for this "merger".
well the BC United (before BC liberals) and the BC Conservatives did formed a coalition government to prevent the NDP from forming a government before, they can totally merge to form a new political party if its the best chance to beat the NDP.
For some reason there is still a lot of festering hate toward the BC Liberal party. A merge may turn some (dim-witted) voters back to( gag) the NDP.
Oh no!!! The Kevin Falcoon, who helped destroy Bcs' Economy with Christie Clark. Kevin wants to come back to do it AGAIN. PLEASE NO!!!
If only BC United was actually right-wing...
Also, amazing change of face from Falcon, there. Now that his party will be on the outside looking in, he wants to get to the table and negotiate - he's definitely in it for himself.
Do not mix parties but leave it to the voters!
We do not need any Liberal associations!
They fought tooth and nail to close down the biggest construction job in 50 years in site C, but when Horgan became premiere, he did an about-face and the project is now complete. Spoken like just another attack dog politician.
we need a real leader not all tehse fish that flop ...they all floppers ..
Where's the right-wing party? I just see the same clown show that's been blowing smoke for as long as I can remember.
Nothing wrong with being RIGHT!
except all the misogyny, racisim and science denial.
@@Cballin
I assume you are speaking on behalf of who?
@@Cballin Learn how to spell before you start insulting others, commie.
@@Cballin oh please, liberals are the biggest peddlers of racism and misogyny, they just do it under the guise of tolerance.
@@Cballinyou have not seen anything yet so cope
How long do we have to keep referring to "X" as "formerly known as Twitter". Enough already.
Just let the process happen. Tired of far flung experts on a wage.
The BC United made a massive mistake in renaming their party. No one in BC knows who they are now. Choosing Falcon as the leader was a big mistake. Under Christy Clark we had the best economy in the country. We need to get rid of EBY and the NDP ASAP. Do whatever you have to do to kick them out!!! Pull it together, combine and put forth the best candidates you have. PLEASE!
I am not really familiar with BC
Ego is most expensive things in your life . If rational thinking goes out the window . Ego will take over .
Kevin Falcon still needs to answer for the BC Rail deal. Care to go under oath Kevin? Too busy devising an HST type scheme?
Kevin...don't go away mad, just go away.
Youre done Falcon
DUMP Falcon. Game On!
Probably not. IMHO, dump Falcon AND Rustad, and the game MIGHT be on.
@@Doug_BC they would have to hurry. Election is right around the corner.
Why are Canadians now suddenly vastly outnumbered in overcrowded Canadian cities?
Shouldn’t Canadian homes be owned and occupied by Canadians?
Christy was better than the ndp but not by much. Take a look at a gas prices chart. The carbon tax is hers.
Christy was the WORST Government in BC's history by FAR.... BC Liberals(now United) are the biggest bunch of Sell-Out A** Clowns in history !
She had the best cleavage.
Campbell's actually.
NO
No!!! Kevin Falcon is trying to ride the blue wave
Kevin Falcon will never be premier. He is no dummy; he knows that. He knows that THE most important thing is to get rid of the NDP.
Strategic voting again?
Yes agree that united party and bc conservatives should joined together
BAD IDEA! Kevin Falcon kicked John Rustad out of his party a couple years ago for having a different view on climate change. So why would he want to merge with Falcon? BC Conservatives are doing just fine on their own. They just need to stay the course and they can win.
Don't bet on it. Expect the NDP troglodytes to put up a hell of a dirty fight.
BC united is the liberal party, not even remotely right wing
No
100%
Under the Gordon Campbell liberals and Christi Clark. I was cut off my disability and lost my home my son entered the foster care system I ended up homeless for a year lost everything I owned. I'm 60 years old now this was 2004, I still haven't recovered. My son ended up being abused. I just pray the NDP stay in power , as they would not do this . I know the NDP wouldn't do this in 2024, because I was faced with the same situation in 2022. And the outcome wasn't to make me homeless.
I grew up in the 90s in an abusive household and even though I reported the abuse to a school councillor, the police, my mom and aunt, they let me sit there and rot in the household. At 15, I ran away and haven't talked to my parents since. I hate to say but, the NDP didn't care I was getting abused back then, the BC liberals taking over didn't change anything. None of these politicians care about child abuse.
Or homelessness, as I was 15 and homeless.
Yes united party should unit with bc conservatives
You deserve what you voted for..
David Eby and NDP must go.
Was it two crucial hits by the British battleship Prince of Wales on 23 May 1941, an attack three days later by 15 Swordfish bombers, or the hits she took during a 92-minute battle with the British battleships Rodney and King George V and the heavy cruisers Norfolk and Dorsetshire? Or, did the Germans scuttle their prize battleship that morning of 27 May? The evidence here-an epilogue to our “50 Years Ago” Bismarck story
Did you post this on the wrong video? What does this have to do with anything?
BC Conservatives will flush Eby solo , screw the BC United , they backed the NDP
why so many partys ? they all teh same party all dont trust any of them at all ...we ened a new guy to stand up for BC all a real leader..
who cares
Yes.
They should merge, and the NDP has outlived their usefulness 9 years ago.
They SHOULD. But they won't. Mainly because the current leader of Conservative Party of BC won't allow it to happen.
HOW ABOUT DISBAN
Yes please
"Right-Wing" is losing its negative connotation.
Yes they should merge.
Gas and diesel is less than $1.75 per liter. Our unemployment rate is 5%. Alberta unemployment rate is 7%
Depends where you are. Here in Victoria (where prices are always higher) it's currently over $2 per liter.
Not here.
Yes
It is the only way to get rid of the NDP
It's funny watching BC vote themselves into misery. Embrace your chains with the NDP
Disturbing actually
Are you completely stoopid ? or do you just have a very short memory of the absolute DISASTER that was the BC Liberals(now United) ???
Like WTF are you on about ?
If conservatives join with the liberals chp gets my vote.
Absolutely not vote conservative!
I'm with you.... biggest bunch of bought and paid for 'special interest' CON jobs going !
No… ndp is far better than those CON clowns
You must be unemployed and sucking the Government's teat.
Couldn't Agree more.
How's the cost of living in BC working out for you?
Delusional beyond compare!
Things keep getting worse and here you are doubling down. Make it make sense
Just being tired with WORTHLESS ndp rule makes average citizens right wing lol
I wanna vote BC United cause they made a clear statement and separated from the Liberals.
Doesn't seem like it's so great with the NDP in power in BC ,there campaign poster should be Hastings Street .wake up simps in BC !!!!!!!!!
