The BC NDP is going to be in a very tough position come next election, even if it is this upcoming Spring.
The next election is going to devolve into a vote on Reconciliation.
The more far-left members of the BC NDP, who want no compromises on Reconciliation and have a „Land Back“ ideology, are going to jump ship to the Green Party which is taking a similar no-compromise position. This will entirely negate the vote splitting impacts that OneBC has for the BCCP.
The remaining working class and moderate members are increasingly seeing the appeal of the BC Conservatives who have been relentlessly hammering Eby on Reconciliation and DRIPA ever since the Cowichan decision came out. The BC NDP has effectively lost control of the narrative, Eby seems to be speaking out of both sides of his mouth, which has led to a trust deficit among people on both sides of this issue.
The province is firmly going to be moving towards pro or anti Reconciliation camps, and realistically, the anti reconciliation camp is going to appeal to a lot more people.
This is a province in which voters care a lot about their bottom line. We mobilized to get rid of the HST. We voted in a referendum against transit taxes. Public opinion quickly turned against the Carbon tax. We voted for the BC NDP because they were against bridge Tolls and MSP payments. Like what matters to us in BC is our money.
The cost of Reconciliation is becoming more clear, and when presented with a choice, my opinion is that people are not going to vote for any party they perceive will give away their homes, tax dollars, and access to public lands.
