Time To End The BC Liberal Dynasty

September 2, 2009 · Posted in BC Election

Oooooh, we’re so scared of the NDP and their nasty, unreformed socialist ways here in B.C. So, we hold our noses and vote, time and again, for the BC Liberals.

I’m done.

Between the HST and jacking up the MSP Premiums, the carbon tax, outright lies during the election campaign, and the blatant disregard for the people of British Columbia during a crippling global recession, I’m finished voting for them.

Let me see … higher taxes, arrogance and deception … sounds an awful lot like Federal Liberals to me.

Obviously I can’t vote for the NDP, but I will not be voting BC Liberal either.

Ever.

I can hear it now from my BC Liberal holdouts, “But Paul, you can’t split the vote and get the NDP elected.”

Too bloody bad. I’m done.

It used to be a decision between socialism or the free market. Now it’s a decision between socialism or arrogance and deception.

I hope that a new party emerges to prevent an NDP victory (or, at the very least, the NDP gets their wits about them and reforms themselves before they get elected and drive this province into the toilet … again).

But I no longer believe we are better off with the current alternative.

Wow, you have no idea what you're talking about!

The problem BC has is that we killed the social credit party and never really had a Conservative party step in to take their place... On a provincial level many of those social cred MPP's moved to the Liberal Party of BC...

That said, provincially I think it's long over due the Conservatives form a provincial party...the "split" vote simply won't happen... disgruntaled NDPer's will place there vote there rather than Gord and the people who hold their noses and vote Liberal (like me) will vote conservative because like yourself there is no way in hell's half acher I will ever hold my nose and vote Liberal in BC again

Happily, the BC Conservatives were up to 7% support in the last poll. At least it's a start...and if we have to split the vote and elect another NDP government for one term (and one only), it might be worth it.

My thought exactly. I didn't vote at all lin the last election, for the first time in 20 years or so. Couldn't, actually...I only had 2 candidates, Liberal and NDP. Where were the BC Conservatives when I needed them?...
