David Eby in opposition: “Tell them you’ll eliminate the debt… then rack up more debt than any govt in BC history.” Today? He’s doing exactly that. BC’s deficit could balloon to $16-18 billion this year. A record high. That’s not a typo. He warned us. Then he became…
Opinion: Expect B.C.’s unprecedented deficit to reach new heights this year dlvr.it/TM29xQ #bcpoli
Opinion: B.C. debt surges faster under Eby than any premier in half a century dlvr.it/TLxGgj #bcpoli
I wish @KahlonRav utmost success in his new role as jobs minister. Now, as his critic: 🔥The NDP made a dumpster fire of the economy long before tariffs 🤷♂️This is a reset of November’s failed reset with the business community 👉Less rhetoric, more listening + action. #bcpoli
🚨 NEW: Ahead of a cabinet shuffle, BC’s small business confidence takes a dive—dropping 6 pts and bucking national trends according to CFIB's latest Monthly Business Barometer® data. ⚠️Weak demand and tax pressures mean uncertainty for many during their critical summer season.
David Eby is adding more debt than every other Premier did throughout B.C. history -- combined. B.C.'s kids, grandkids and great grandkids will be paying the price for this guy's lack of fiscal discipline.
🍻 Join us for a casual evening of good food, great company, and a chance to connect with fellow Conservatives. RSVP: conservativebc.ca/2025_08_11_dew… #kelowna #bcpoli

The economic pie is shrinking under David Eby, but that hasn’t stopped his NDP government from pushing to the front of the line for seconds. #bcpoli
The latest StatsCan data paints a sobering picture: Despite population growth, B.C.’s economy is shrinking per person, lowering our living standards. Trump tariffs don't help, but B.C.'s challenges existed well before Jan 2025. #bcpoli #bcecon
David Eby has broken the record for the highest per-person debt in BC history. $17,147 per person—and climbing fast. No premier in 50+ years has grown the debt this quickly. And British Columbians are stuck with the bill. #bcpoli
🚨The healthcare crisis continues under the BC NDP. University Hospital of Northern BC in #CityofPG has issued a notice warning pregnant women that obstetric services may be reduced starting in August due to a shortage of specialists. bcconservativecaucus.ca/expectant-moth…
“A partial solution to the pediatric closure is in no way a total resolution of the major endemic problems that continue to plague Interior Health under the current leadership regime and under the current minister.” infotel.ca/newsitem/mla-k… #bcpoli

It’s time to stop letting the NDP hide behind cooked numbers. Because the truth is — they’ve failed, and British Columbians are paying the price. Here’s an example of statistical sleight of hand from Interior Health. 👇 open.substack.com/pub/gavindew/p… #bcpoli

“The Eby government has taken a wrecking ball to British Columbia’s public finances.” #bcpoli biv.com/news/commentar…

Local NDP MLA @rparmar_BC - who hid under his desk throughout the gut wrenching saga of little Charleigh - claims credit for @MLABrennanDay’s tireless advocacy. That’s borderline sociopathic. The @BCConservCaucus is doing the NDP’s job in their own darn ridings. #bcpoli
Charleigh’s mum Jori: “There’s been no communication since Feb. except when I emailed Mr. Parmar June 27 asking for his urgent help, he responded saying he was glad I’ll have the opportunity to meet with Josie Osborne (July 4). He called once in Feb when we started our appeal.”
The kids are alright! We had a great first event yesterday for young conservatives, with smart questions and thoughtful discussion from a group of young people who are passionate about a better future for their generation. #bcpoli



If you hold a multi-city event series called Rosé Disco, Kelowna is obviously going to be the best. A great opportunity to break in the revitalized Waterfront Park stage while showcasing some amazing wineries.




In the early 90's the BC government decreased medical school admission. Things being said at the time was there are too many doctors and "a hospital bed built is a hospital bed filled". Now if we look a the demographic of physicians ie how many are set to retire in the next five…
The emergency department at South Okanagan General Hospital in #Oliver will be closed from from 7 p.m. Friday, July 18 to 7 a.m. on Saturday, July 19, 2025. Patients can access emergency care at Penticton Regional Hospital or dial 911. interiorhealth.ca/media/temporar…
Debt has grown massively as a result of David Eby’s policy choices. He has cratered our economy and left us with massive fiscal imbalance. A blame game and a performative cabinet shuffle won’t change that. #bcpoli
The B.C. government’s per-person debt burden increased by 44 per cent from 2022 to 2024. fraserinstitute.org/commentary/dav…
I can’t believe what I’m reading, @rparmar_BC is trying to take credit for the hard work from the public and Conservative Party of BC advocating for Charleigh and here family. Ravi Parmar is not deserving of his position and for this lie he should do the right thing and Resign!…
Don’t miss this event tomorrow! Are you a young conservative aged 15-25 in the Okanagan? Join MLAs @Kristina4BC, @gavindew, & @mack4change for an evening of networking and speeches! #conservative #kelowna RSVP:
Charleigh’s funding has been reinstated. 💙 Because YOU spoke up, donated, and demanded accountability, the gov’t reversed its decision. Thank you to everyone who stood with Charleigh. This is what happens when we fight back—together. I will however not let this government…
NEW - BC gov has restored drug coverage for Charleigh Pollock, the terminally ill 10-yr-old girl from Langford. Health Minister Josie Osborne informed the family tonight. Says it's not acceptable Charleigh is suffering during a disagreement from medical experts about the drug.
Rename the JEDI Ministry they did. Disturbance in the Force, I feel. Glad I didn't buy that blue lightsaber, I am. #bcpoli
Rest in peace JEDI. Welcome JEG. #bcpoli
