Conservative values are everyday values. Everyday British Columbians know you can’t spend like crazy without causing major budget issues. Everyday British Columbians know that just handing out free drugs won’t get people well. Everyday British Columbians know that criminals belong in jail, not neighbourhoods. 👉 Agree? Join me:

While British Columbians are already pushed to the brink by an unyielding affordability crisis, David Eby’s NDP is secretly plotting its next cash grab from everyday commuters. In quiet meetings, the Ministry of Finance, TransLink, and the Mayors’ Council are crafting a new vehicle levy and laying the groundwork for road pricing, deliberately hiding the details until after they try to push through a snap election. This NDP government expects hard-working drivers to foot the bill for fiscal mismanagement while keeping the public completely in the dark. Such secrecy demonstrates a total disregard for the public, treating family budgets as a blank check for government spending. Families across the province are already struggling to afford groceries, rent, and the basic cost of simply getting to work. The absolute last thing British Columbians need is another government raid on household finances, whether through a new vehicle fee or a charge on the daily commute, just for driving kids to school. If the NDP is actively drawing up these plans, they need to stop hiding the details and come clean with the public immediately. British Columbians deserve absolute transparency, not a government that keeps the price tag a secret until the voting is over. Taxpayers have a right to know the truth: what exactly is this new vehicle levy, and how much will it cost families across British Columbia? Voters will not be fooled by a government that hides the price tag today only to stick drivers with the bill tomorrow.

What we saw in Question Period today was a masterclass in financial denial. I laid out the numbers, real, unavoidable numbers, showing that British Columbians pay $18.5 billion in income tax and $5.1 billion of it now goes straight to servicing this government’s debt. And what did the Finance Minister offer in response? A “news flash” Well, here’s my news flash: When 30 cents of every income tax dollar is being vacuumed up by interest payments, you don’t get to pretend everything is fine. She insisted this was all “reasonable,” as though families in British Columbia aren’t already drowning in record affordability pressures. She rambled on about hospitals and schools as if that somehow explains why nearly half the debt her government accumulated isn’t for infrastructure at all, but for operating deficits, overspending with nothing permanent to show for it. Then came the talking points: ICBC, rent, child care, the same stale list she recites whenever she needs to fill airtime. Not a single word about why British Columbia now leads the country in unaffordability. Not a single word about why people are leaving this province in numbers we haven’t seen in decades. Not a single word about why debt-service costs are exploding while outcomes get worse. And the punchline? She actually expects British Columbians to feel grateful, grateful that their government has maxed out the provincial credit card and now hands them a bill worth more than the “rebates” they were promised. Grateful that interest payments, not public services, are eating their paycheques. If she wants to throw around “news flashes,” here’s one she can pin to her desk: A government that can’t live within its means has no business lecturing families who are trying to live within theirs. The truth is simple: British Columbians aren’t struggling because the economy changed British Columbians are struggling because the NDP changed the economy They turned prosperity into debt, affordability into crisis, and fiscal responsibility into a punchline And one more news flash for the Minister The affordability crisis didn’t just happen under David Eby. It happened because of David Eby. #cdnpoli #bcpoli
