OneBC-Chef Dallas Brodie wurde vom Parteivorstand von der Führung ausgeschlossen – BC News

With OneBC, a party of two, having imploded overnight, I predict that the BC Conservative party will now have an easier time uniting around one leader.

If an election were to be called in Spring 2026, the key issue will most likely be private property rights and 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. With OneBC now crippled or even effectively gone, the BCCP won’t have the same vote splitting issues that the BC NDP will have.

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.

I believe that 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.

OneBC has been a curse for the BC NDP because they very effectively shifted the Overton window to the right in less than 4 months. Now the implosion of OneBC is going to be a blessing for the BC Conservatives who don’t have to deal with vote splitting, but get to benefit from the Overton window having moved, without being the ones who took the political hit for moving it.

And this is why you don’t fire your comms directors who still controls the party’s website and social media. Dallas Brodie probably still thinks she’s leader, but when the party’s website has removed any mention of her, it’s difficult to carry on.
