#cdnpoli Poilievre is the gift that keeps on giving to the Liberals. How can someone who can’t manage his caucus, pretend to be PM in waiting?

#bcpoli Sad to see the problems @conservativebc.bsky.social Leader John Rustad is having. Rumours of a group of New Democrats organizing to help him stay as party leader are only wishful thinking. Go John!

#bcpoli Great @BCGEU.bsky.social is going in to mediation with bc gov, but is Paul Finch really concerned about gov offer or is it his unrealistic desire to get a better deal than his predecessor, Stephanie Smith.

So Paul Finch is receiving full pay during the @BCGEU.bsky.social strike. How much is that? For those who’ve been out over five weeks, if full union proposal were accepted, how long will it take to make up difference lost between normal pay and strike pay? #bcpoli

Ahead of Smith's announcement, BC Premier David Eby said the proposal to build a new pipeline across BC is "not a real project"

It's just more "taxpayer-funded wedge politics" from Smith, according to Eby
