The onslaught of rural hospital closures will accelerate in BC after the conservatives victory. Also, I can't imagine any sane doctor would relocate to a province infested with MAGA friendly far right nutters.

Nope. We, the people of British Columbia bear that responsibility. We have voted against adopting proportional representation on THREE distinct occasions: 2005, 2009 and again in 2018 when NDP Premier Horgan appealed to us to adopt the measure.

Eby declined bcecause his predecessor, NDP Premier Horgan, had already held that referendum and 61% of British Columbians voted to stick with First Past The Post.
Premier Eby might still be Premier Eby with proportional representation. He declined the recommendation for proportional representation and he bears responsibility for losing on that account too.

Only 48% of registered voters made it to the polls. If half of us feel so entitled that our annoyance at Eby is more important to you than voting - you deserve whatever you get next. Voter apathy elected the Cons.
Between the NDP & the Greens, BC voted 50% for a progressive people-oriented government. But because 10% of those voters were Greens, we have ended up with a racist, destructive mess. Congratulations Green party, you just helped usher in 4 years of hell.

The most corrupt premier BC ever had is once again front and centre in BC politics.
CTV has declared a Conservative Majority government. They cut back immediately to the desk and this was Christy Clark’s face In case anyone ever tried to pretend she was or is a Liberal

I know everyone wants to pile on Eby in this moment. This election result was either now or later. Eby is NOT the problem. The problem is the stupidity-fuelled hatred & racism so rampant in BC. As a Canadian, I am disgusted, embarrassed. These people make me sick.🤮🤮🤮 FUK U

People are conveniently forgetting how we suffered under Gordon Campbell & Christy Clark. It will be even worse with the extremist candidates who want B.C. to separate, attack lgbtq2S, denial of Indigenous rights, eliminate the human rights code, privatize, cut public services
This contagious claim that under the NDP BC has become 'the highest taxed province' is nonsense. Provincial own-source revenue as share of GDP is 4th lowest among the provinces, and below the Canadian weighted average. #bcpoli /2

Dave Eby said he takes full responsibility for the election loss. That's hubris. It's the rest of us who are going to be suffering the fallout from this clusterfuck for the next 4 years.

Can we just FIRE all provincial governments and simply let Mark Carney run the entire damn thing? Seriously?

BC has done stupid things before we had 6 years of Christy Clark who went to war against nurses and teachers and every public service union.
BC, you’re going to regret this. The party is a literal mess, and you don’t even know who’ll lead it. Sometimes it’s better to stick with the devil you know. A little critical thinking wouldn’t hurt. 🤦‍♀️

Now & then, something happens (like an egregiously early snap election call) that makes us so ANGRY we want to punish the perpetrator (Eby) by staying home. Please don't let spite elect BC's next governing party. #Vote

Hey BC: Do NOT fall for it. “Snap election” was the fallacy. Cons tried to FORCE an election 13x over 2 years. 13x!!!! Eby was left with NO choice … in this fiscal environment he needed a mandate to get work done. The Cons did nothing but cause turmoil.

Federal Liberals know what’s at stake.
Popular former federal Liberal MP Joyce Murray has endorsed the BC NDP and David Eby.

If BCers want to stop an extremist Conservative takeover of our province, folks need to vote NDP tomorrow.

Hey BC voters... Consider tomorrow's vote as your #ForeverCanadian moment.. Just look at what the Cons/UCP have done to Alberta... Thats EXACTLY what you'll get there... Maybe Eby made a mistake calling the election but.. 2 wrongs don't make it right..
