THINK !

Want to read some scary stuff? Unbelievably it comes from right here in BC. This kind of rhetoric is an echo, right out of the old failed Soviet Union literature. For example, the NDP’s understanding and meaning of ‘equality’ is quite different from what an average person might understand. Just think about the paragraph below for a moment. The thought that intelligent people vote for this is very sad. How many millions have died or were killed in this world because of these kinds of myths? We must hope that BCers are smarter and more politically aware. BC had this ideology in power twice before, and it ended badly due to these deep seated ideas, and it won't be any different next time, for the socialist religion never really changes.

The Constitution of the New Democratic Party of British Columbia

PREAMBLE

The New Democratic Party believes that social, economic and political progress in Canada can only be assured by the application of democratic socialist principles to government and the administration of public affairs.

The principles of democratic socialism can be defined briefly as follows:


a) the production and distribution of goods and services shall be directed to meeting the social and individual needs of people and not for profit,

b) the modification and control of the operations of monopolistic productive and distributive organizations through economic and social planning, towards these ends, and

c) where necessary, the extension of the principle of social ownership.

The New Democratic Party holds firm to the belief that the dignity, freedom and equality of the individual is a basic right that must be maintained and extended.

The New Democratic Party is proud to be associated with the democratic socialist parties of the world and to share in the struggle for peace, international co-operation and the abolition of poverty.

IT IS OVER !

The street poster says, "Christy Clark Heads Fabulist Party Come Clean BC Deserves Full Public Rail Inquiry"

In Provincial politics, the NDP have won nothing on their merits, however the BC Liberals have lost everything. Just like Rita Johnston and her dying Social Credit Party, or Kim Campbell at the end of the Mulroney Progressive-Cons, the lady brought in at the end to save things just cannot do it -too little -too late. It is all over. All the NDP have to do is keep quiet and not reveal their socialism and other nasties, and they will be government next time. The only option to limit the coming damage to the Province, is to elect as many BC Conservatives as possible to protect against the NDP danger-wave rolling fast to shore. As of April, it is still a long-shot for the BC Conservatives to be considered a government-in-waiting.   The poster on Main Street Vancouver says a lot, both for its very existence and its inherent message. BC is in for a rough political ride –hang on !

Senate Elections

BC could be a national leader to show the way for other Provinces in electoral reform. It has now been confirmed, that it will take a BC Conservative government to have BC Senators elected.
* * * * * * *
Liberal commitment to an elected Senate reform is a PR stunt
March, 2012 – Vancouver – “The Clark government’s delay of the private members bill to hold Senate elections is just another example of an inept government’s bungling” said John Cummins leader of British Columbia’s Conservatives.

The Bill would divide British Columbia up into six Senate districts. However, sitting Senators have not been paired with these “Senate seats”. So for example, the process to determine which seat will be filled upon the retirement of Senator St. Germain this fall has not been addressed by the bill.

The proposed legislation calls on Elections BC to investigate ways to permit online voting for Senators, something current law will not permit.

“Also troubling is the sunset clause that would cancel Senate elections if BC does not gain more seats in the Senate after eight years. While an equal Senate is an important goal, the position that if it can’t be equal, it can’t be democratic seems to me like throwing the baby out with the bath water.”

“If the Liberals really believed in senate reform the proposed legislation would have been well considered before presentation to the legislature, with necessary amending legislation attached to allow the intent of the bill to be realized.”

“If this government was serious about electing BC’s Senators, this would be government legislation, not a private member’s bill and it would be passed quickly, not delayed for months.”

“When it comes to Senate reform the Liberal government is just going through the motions,” said Cummins.” I have long supported Senate reform. I voted for it as an MP and campaigned for it during federal elections. A new BC Conservative government would bring in a meaningful Senate Election act as a government bill.”

BC Liberals loose election !

No chance for Libs in Royal City

By Paul Forseth, The Royal City Record Newspaper
February 15, 2012

Re: Liberals at point of no return, The Record, Feb. 8.

The Keith Baldrey article of Feb. 8 echoes what I have been saying: that no matter what the B.C. Liberals do, it is over for them. In some ways, poor Christy Clark has become the Kim Campbell of B.C. politics; she is the leader of a lost cause.

In the next election, the B.C. Liberals will likely put on a good flashy campaign and show lots of energy and money spent, but it will not make any difference. Some deep barrier was crossed where many voters, especially more conservative-minded ones, will not give the B.C. Liberals another reluctant pass. There will be no more "hold-your-nose voting" across the province.

To be specific for New Westminster, it is a no-brainer to say that the local B.C. Liberal candidate has absolutely no chance of being elected next time, especially when the B.C. Liberals as a party will lose the next election.

From a local perspective within New Westminster, the contest will be between me as a B.C. Conservative, and the NDP, with any remainder Liberal vote just dividing the non-socialist vote.

My evaluation is based on electoral history. In the 1940s, New Westminster's MLA was Byron "Boss" Johnson, who became premier of a LiberalConservative Coalition government.

When the coalition ended, New Westminster went opposition socialist as the Social Credit government of W.A.C. Bennett won in 1952. In that election for New Westminster, CCF (meaning NDP) Rae Eddie became the MLA from 1952 to 1969. Then Dennis Cocke (NDP) 1969 to 1986, Anita Hagen (NDP) 1986 to 1996, Graeme Bowbrick (NDP) 1996 to 2001, Joyce Murray (Lib) 2001 to 2005, Chuck Puchmayr (NDP) 2005 to 2009, Dawn Black (NDP) 2009 to present. Black is not running again.

A Liberal was only elected here once when the NDP were embarrassed down to two seats provincially. It returned to the old pattern in the next election. This time around, since the unwritten voter coalition of Liberal-Conservative voting is over, it could be a predictable win for the NDP again. However, non-NDPers can take hope in a few things. There has been a gradual demographic change in New Westminster. The hundreds that have given up locally and who do not bother to vote anymore might become roused to vote this time, now that there is a true Conservative choice.

Additionally, some NDP vote might come my way, considering how the NDP leadership rudely cast aside Dawn Black as part of the ousted Carol James group.

In conclusion, analyst Keith Baldrey is correct when he says, "a stench of sorts begins to envelop a government, and it can be very hard to get rid of it."

Paul Forseth and the BC Conservatives for New Westminster

BC Conservative Party

Former Conservative MP hopes to run provincially in New Westminster

By Doug Ward, Vancouver Sun August 30, 2011

Former Conservative MP Paul Forseth is seeking the provincial Conservative nomination in New Westminster.

Forseth, who was a MP from B.C. between 1993 to 2006 for the Reform, Canadian Alliance and Conservative parties, said he was urged to not run for the fledgling provincial Tories by B.C. Liberal members who fear vote-splitting on the centre-right will only help the NDP.
Forseth, a 64-year-old retired former probation officer, believes the B.C. Liberal Party under Premier Christy Clark, a long-time federal Liberal, is losing its ability to unite federal Conservative and Liberal supporters against the New Democrats.

"The B.C. Liberal coalition is kind of coming to its shelf-life end," said Forseth, who said he has voted for the B.C. Liberals in the past but has not been a member.

Forseth added that vote-splitting won't be a factor in New Westminster because the B.C. Liberals have no chance at taking the riding, which has traditionally been a strong NDP riding and is currently held by New Democrat Dawn Black who is not seeking re-election.
