This is hilarious because there is a legitimate issue with Eby's implementation of housing policies - municipalities weren't given funding for infrastructure upgrades to facilitate the housing - that BC Cons could've jumped on. But they've missed the boat.

Douglas Todd: B.C. Conservatives oppose David Eby’s upzoning mandates
The B.C. Conservatives are markedly different from the NDP, especially on forced higher densities and the autonomy of municipal governments.

It's official. The Legislature has been dissolved. The provincial election in BC will be held on October 24th.

The smartest thing the Greens or NDP could do in the BC election campaign is align themselves with European values, such as climate action, green economy, free university, UBI, 4 day work week, taxing the rich, etc.

A great idea that BC parties should champion, also.
Restrictive covenants are everywhere in BC, especially on properties adjacent to grocery chains. They prevent competition and enable price gouging. They should be outlawed.

Restrictive covenants are bad for all of us. They prevent competition, stifle business growth and keep grocery prices high.
Part of the Alberta NDP’s Affordability Agenda is to get rid of restrictive covenants.

He's not wrong. The BC Cons are a group of conspiracy theorists, fascists, racists, and bigots. And they are aligned with Trump. They've shown us that over the past 2 years.
However, the NDP currently has control of government and this election is not necessary.

Eby is portraying the BC Conservatives as a sort of existential, Trump-toadying threat to B.C.
This speech feels like such a heavy lift to get to "and so we absolutely need an election now"

But it's not an accurate poll because the Cons split into 3 parties. Some of those conservative votes will go to right of centre CentreBC party, some to right wing BC Cons, and some to far right OneBC.
Don't be surprised if CentreBC wins more seats than BC Cons.

Who do they think will vote for that??

Deciding how to vote in BC election is frustrating.
BC Greens: Platform mostly aligned w/ concerns, but no candidate in many ridings.
NDP: see above thread.
CentreBC: Conservatives. They don't get it.
BC Cons: Conspiracy theorist, Trump supporters.
OneBC: Lunatics.

Eby made important legislation changes to enable 4-6 units on a lot and even pressured municipal Councils to get housing built.
But he didn't give municipalities money to upgrade sewer & water pipes (needed for housing) and cut housing funding.
