His common sense vision for public safety involves a big increase in addiction treatment programs, most of them private and some of them involuntary, meaning during incarceration. He wants indefinite apprehension of permanently brain-damaged habitual offenders now wandering the streets, on mental health grounds. That could involve invoking the notwithstanding clause in the charter of rights to bypass constitutional concerns if need be, he said.

    “I hope I don’t offend people, but [Premier David Eby] is a socialist. He believes very strongly in big government. … He’s also an authoritarian who does not respect democracy and local governance.”

    I see a lot Conservatives on social media call people Communist when describing Socialist leaning politics. it’s kinda funny if you know any CCP living people here they have a clear bias towards supporting Conservatives.

    “That is not the approach that we want to take… and so it’s not a fit for what we are thinking.”

    In regards to Rustad firing the current PHO. Do people think it’s a good thing to hire Provincial Health Officer based on how they fit their ideology.
