This is a great clip for Lorne Doerkson.
Clear, direct and incredibly relatable.
It’s also exactly the kind of debate moment the NDP will be hoping doesn’t go viral tonight. Sometimes 30 seconds can tell you a lot about a campaign.

@Dave_Eby ,
Your joint statement with the FNLC is a straight-up capitulation. After floating amendments to suspend or pause key DRIPA sections and Interpretation Act provisions following the Gitxaała court ruling, you’ve now confirmed zero legislation in the spring 2026 session. That’s not “joint talks” or reconciliation, it’s handing a veto to roughly 5.7% of BC’s population while the other 94.3% foot the bill for the chaos.
The numbers are brutal and public. Fraser Institute data puts stalled resource projects, mining, LNG, critical minerals, at over 670 billion dollars because of endless FPIC-driven delays and uncertainty. StatsCan’s February 2026 release shows 84,000 national job losses in the sector, BC’s share is about 20,000. Provincial budget deficits are locked in at 11 to 13 billion dollars, provincial debt is climbing past 180 billion dollars, and you’re already planning 15,000 public-sector cuts plus tax hikes while net population outflow hit 41,000 last year. Auditor General reports keep confirming the same pattern federally: 24 to 32 billion dollars annually on Indigenous programming with dismal measurable outcomes. This is not evidence-based governance. This is ideology over arithmetic.
DRIPA’s FPIC provisions create exactly what Section 15 of the Charter forbids: race-based differential treatment that undermines equality before the law and the rule of law for every citizen. Modern treaties with finality, Nisga’a, Tsawwassen, already proved certainty works. Perpetual, ever-expanding claims do not. You’re choosing the model that freezes investment, kills jobs, and balloons debt instead of the one that delivers clarity and shared prosperity.
This backdown wasn’t driven by new evidence or public interest. It was driven by activist pressure and internal NDP threats after your own caucus and the FNLC pushed back. British Columbians are not collateral damage for your political survival.
Repeal the FPIC elements. Legislate statutory timelines for project approvals. Prioritize citizens who actually pay the taxes that keep the lights on. Evidence over excuses. Precision over propaganda. Citizens first. Canada first. One law for all.

David Suzuki who owns multiple homes one on an island has made millions off of this grift. He wants politicians to prioritize the environment over the economy, ya easy for a multimillionaire to say. Look how unhinged he’s become.

A Year of No Accomplishments or Accountability but Carney wants you to think Canada is #1 in the world. Carney has used CBC to brainwash his supporters into thinking he’s a god,I think he’s a con artist.
Happy 1st anniversary, Mark Carney!
-Deficit doubled
-Highest food inflation in the G7
-2nd highest unemployment in the G7
-No pipelines approved
-Homebuilding dropping 15%
-Immigration system still broken
-Violent crime skyrocketing in our major cities
A year later, illusion meets reality. Congratulations, sir, you’re just another Liberal.

A bit rich coming from a guy who has openly celebrated individuals convicted of treason and armed insurrection against the Canadian state.
Not to mention siding with American-funded ENGOs whose sole mission is to keep Canadian resources in the ground (to the benefit of the US).

Only the NDP could claim that a policy that divides British Columbians is somehow "reconciliation".
In reality, NDP reconciliation has become a poorly disguised reparations movement with no cap on payments or damages claimed.

David Eby hardwired DRIPA into the Interpretation Act so every BC law must be read through UNDRIP.
Now he is blaming the courts for the chaos he created.
Judges are doing exactly what he ordered.
The real threat to our economy and property rights is the Premier.
Eby accuses courts of jeopardizing B.C. economy, resource projects theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…

🇨🇦 🚨 Worth clarifying what the media won’t:
The “Coastal First Nations” group everyone keeps quoting is not a Nation, not a band, and not a rights-holder.🇨🇦
It’s a Vancouver-based non-profit, funded by U.S. foundations that oppose Canadian resource development.
Nothing wrong with advocacy — people can support whatever causes they want.
But let’s stop pretending this organization holds title, jurisdiction, or treaty authority on behalf of entire Nations.
🇨🇦 Facts > narratives.
Accuracy shouldn’t be optional.
#cdnpoli #BCpoli #Energy #IndigenousRights #Canada #ResourceDevelopment #FactsMatter
The group you keep hearing about in the media, Coastal First Nations, isn't a band.
They hold neither rights nor title.
They're a not-for-profit based in downtown Vancouver started with money from American foundations opposed to resource development.

I am devastated today by the news out of Crofton.
My heart goes out to the 375 Canadians who lost their jobs, their families and the communities they support.
I will never stop fighting for you.

BREAKING: Conservatives are calling on Forests Minister Ravi Parmar to resign as news emerges that Crofton Pulp Mill will close for good. More than 350 high paying jobs, gone.
NDP policies created a fibre shortage. They were warned and did nothing.

CANADA is the only country on the planet stupid enough to tax, cap, and BAN the very industries that made us rich.
Mark Carney calls it Net Zero.
I call it National Suicide.
When the economy collapses and the lights go out maybe THEN Canadians will wake up.
Tim Lloyd retweeted
The truth is out. A leaked report proves BC Ferries could have been built right here in BC.
Thousands of jobs. Billions for our economy. A real industry for our kids.
But Eby and Carney sold us out to China.
They looked workers in the eye and lied.
This is not leadership. This is betrayal.
