I was listening to the news this morning and heard Smith suggest that there would be another referendum in 2027 about stuff like bike lanes, etc

Did anyone else hear this?

F*ck me, as long as the UCP are in power we are going to waste all Alberta's money on culture war crap

The rise of @emilylowan.bsky.social is the only good thing to come out of this stupid election so give her a follow, as she will likely be on the front lines of fighting back against the avalanche of shit we are about to eat.

I would advise every British Columbian against Alberta's bitumen crossing our province, to counter this *latest* proposed bill from Alberta & its oil industry by emailing the two people responsible for any approvals: the Minister of Natural Resources & PM Carney. BC says NO.... under any Premier !

BC Greens got 11% of the vote and only 2 seats.

If we had proportional representation, Greens would have 10 seats in the BC legislature.

Our electoral system in BC in must change.

And it begins...

BC electing BC Cons has emboldened the wingnuts. Just like in Alberta.

Prepare yourselves for 4 years of this garbage.

After a group of white supremacists gathered at the BC Legislature the morning after the election, I asked premier-to-be Lorne Doerkson about the incident and his plan to fight hate - you can read more about that here: thetyee.ca/News/2026/10...

Canadian news media got what they wanted:

A right wing BC Cons majority government.

Congratulations, we're fucked.

This is an example of the pettiness of conservative governments.

The tunnel project is under construction. Doerkson is cancelling it so he can say the NDP messed up.

Same as Gordon Campbell did by selling the fast ferries for pennies.

Shameful.

POV: me making these rooms.
At this point, I am not satisfied with housing alone. Size customizing, freeform placement, better understanding to how 3D game models work, this is so much fun.

I also need full control for AU lorecrafting. Some of these places are not enough for me anymore. 😭

BC Con gov't repealing legislation that allows fourplexes is anti-housing construction.

Good thing every tradesperson, real estate agent, builder, and developer voted for them. F'n idiots.

After watching this conference I'm even more convinced that David Eby's snap election is going to be catastrophic for the NDP. I think Lorne Doerkson is going to be the next premiere. Lets hope it's a minority government and they have to work with the Greens.

Isn't it interesting that Doerkson has a political record, and yet, Canadian news media described him as an "unknown but likeable guy."

If the below list had been discussed by news media, would NDP voters have stayed home, or would they have held their nose and voted?

Nov 1st we'll embark on what I believe is a bonehead no clock change experiment. 1974 USA tried this & rejected it after the trial 2011 Russia rejected Egypt rejected 2014. I hope we change our mind & reverse after this nonsense screws people up. #cdnpoli #bcpoli #vanpoli

Here's a former #ABC councillor with the delusion that the party had a "messaging problem". No. With a council majority, it was plain to see they had both an ideology and attitude problem. Actions speak louder than words.
Outgoing Vancouver councillor Sarah Kirby-Yung told media today something that a lot of ABC folks had been saying privately for some time: that their campaign was too negative and too focused on wedge issues — public safety, is Sean Orr Is A Bad Person, etc. — especially compared to their 2022 win
