Ironic that a party called „OneBC“ won’t have candidates in 88 ridings.
Also, surely it’s only a coincidence that the number is 88, right?
The CTV article doesn’t mention it, but [Mr Fulmer isn’t without his own scandals involving first nations](https://coastalfirstnations.ca/resources/cfn-condemns-bc-politician-for-breathtaking-hypocrisy-over-online-smear-campaign/).
I’m not sure how wise this is, they’d basically be throwing away Quilchena by doing this, as OneBC has no chance in hell of winning there. I guess if the other 4 ridings are in Vancouver it might not be a bad trade, but giving away ridings in Peace River or something would just be stupid as there is no split vote there.
I’ve always maintained that the smartest play would just be to get Brodie recalled, as OneBC thus loses all their oxygen and would no longer be a threat. The Previous BC Conservative leadership was on that train, and it would be foolish to stray from that path.
This just cemented that Fulmer is not a serious contender for the BC Conservative leadership. Dallas Brodie is going to be recalled. Her riding a a strong BC liberal/BC united riding full of people who vote based on money and taxes, not culture war BS. She only won because all the BC united voters chose the non-NDP option. In next election (whether in a general election or bye election after recall), the BC conservatives are going to win this seat.
Why is he making a deal with Brodie? What exactly does the BC conservatives gain by not agreeing to run in a seat that they will certainly win?
And if the BC conservatives decide not to run a candidate in that riding, then BC NDP will pick it up. Dallas Brodie is a terrible candidate. Not because her culture war nonsense, but because she is lazy. She absolutely did nothing in the last election to win. She did not canvass or phone bank or attend any events. She won purely because her name was next to the BC Conservative Party on the ballot.
How often are deals done with fringe parties?
this is like if an ndp decided to do a deal with a provincial communist party lol
Stupid question but why doesn’t the bcndp implement proportional representation? They got really close to losing the last election if it weren’t for bc liberal remnants splitting the right
This is so dumb. OneBC does not have a constituency. If they ran in the next election, even a sitting MLA and party leader like Dallas Brodie would at best, get like 5% of the vote, mostly from outwardly racist cranks who probably wouldn’t even vote if she wasn’t on the ballot (as in not splitting any votes). They do not need to court the crazies, the craziest ones that won election have already left the party. The old BC Liberal party has already taken over the BC Conservatives. They successfully rebranded and now they are working on proving that they aren’t crazy. If this professional party (rebranded as the Conservatives) was in place in 2024, they probably would have won.
