OneBC 2026 Election Statement on Immigration and Extremism British Columbia, Canada and to an extent the wider Western world, are facing rising problems with mass migration and extremism that are changing our standard of living, our quality of life, and voters want accountability. While the self-appointed intellectuals may snicker “This is a provincial election and immigration is a federal issue,” and no doubt the other political parties when asked about this issue will shrug their shoulders - or maybe mouth some vague words about cooperation with the federal government if they are brave - we disagree. OneBC does not believe in deferred responsibility. If we go down this path, every issue that gets too big will be the responsibility of the federal government and any problem deemed minor will be dumped on municipal governments. First, OneBC will make sure that British Columbia has the same provincial immigration controls that are exercised by Quebec. In this case Quebec is obviously right that the province should have more control about how many people come into their province and who exactly they are. OneBC will go one step further ensuring that any new immigrant coming to live in BC has to have an in-person interview and background check by a provincial officer. Immigrants coming to live in the province should be able to speak English or French and be completely unaffiliated with extremist ideological movements like the IRGC, CCP, Hamas, Samidoun, Hezbollah, or Khalistan. Second, at the start of the summer break in the legislature OneBC’s executive team created a task force to look into what can be done about illegal immigration the provincial end. While deporting all illegal immigrants may be the logical end conclusion of any immigration policy, the provincial government does not have deportation powers. We have determined that if OneBC is in the legislature and able to successfully apply pressure to the Attorney General and Auditor General we can effectively cut off all criminals and scammers from the public dollar with two good directives. We will push the AG to do an immigration check on all criminal charges and any conviction of non-citizens will result in permanent loss of access to all public benefits. There will also be zero tolerance for all fraudsters. Anyone caught defrauding the public will also lose access to public money. We will enable all public institutions to do immigration checks for anyone receiving public services. If you are receiving tax dollars, you should be a legal resident of this country. While the ultimate power of removal lies with the federal government, a motivated and competent provincial government can set the conditions that make federal immigration enforcement a lot easier by provincially funding deportations. This method of depriving public funds to harmful entities is the first step in a counter extremism approach that will bring British Columbia prosperity and restore normalcy. We have a bill ready to go that will deprive all institutions of public money if they publicly display and promote symbols of terrorism.
