The Angus Reid poll showed 54 per cent of those surveyed had an unfavourable view of Falcon while 44 per cent had a negative impression of Rustad. Eby, meanwhile, had a 45 per cent approval rating.
Here’s how it goes for me:
No way I’d vote for BC Liberals after what they did to this province.
No way I’d vote for BC Conservatives because of what they’d do to this province
No way I’d vote for BC United because they have no leadership platform and are essentially a reactionary less bad version of the Conservatives
That leaves NDP and Green. BC Greens are too disorganized and couldn’t manage the entire province.
That leaves the NDP, which has drifted so far from its Social Credit roots that it’s now a viable centrist party in BC. They’re unlikely to try to steal the province out from under us or turn it into an authoritarian state, and the most likely to attempt to do what’s best for the people.
Not that it matters; my riding will vote Conservative no matter who I vote for.
NDP has been doing a good job with Ravi Kahlon on housing. I don’t even vote by elimination, I think they’re doing a good job. Folding on decriminalization and the blind eye for LNG has been my biggest disappointments but still overall satisfied with the last 2y of provincial government.
Not that it matters; my riding will vote Conservative no matter who I vote for.
Keep in mind that voting for a party anyway can show that party how many people are waiting in that riding. Then if it gets enough people they can focus on trying to get that area.
When I finished reading this, I heard a ‘deflating party’ sound in my head
This is the best summary I could come up with:
On the heels of failed merger talks between British Columbia’s two right-of-centre parties, a new Angus Reid poll puts the governing B.C.
"So on the surface, the NDP continues to hold a strong, comfortable lead, 11 points over their next place challenger, the B.C.
Conservatives, party leader John Rustad remains a bit of an unknown to a wide swath of the electorate, Kurl said.
A new website, resignkevin.ca, is urging Falcon to step down, calling him the “biggest impediment to a free enterprise co-operation agreement.”
United’s offer of a non-competition agreement, which would have seen the parties agree not to run candidates in key ridings to avoid splitting right-of-centre voters.
Conservative’s candidate for Courtenay-Comox, Damon Scrase, stepped down after criticism over since-deleted social media posts.
