—The BC NDP’s friend is the enemy of BC: the headlines
Here is this morning’s big news, from the Post’s Drew Hasselback, which will take bread off the table for 25,000 Canadian families, most of them in British Columbia:
Canada vows to fight ‘unfair and punitive duty’ as Trump slaps tariff on softwood lumber
And here is a headline from a short while ago, from the Star, about the BC NDP’s pals in Unifor:
Trump’s tough talk good news, says Canadian auto union
These big union fools specifically said they favoured Trump’s trade policies. That’s what they said. And now those selfsame policies are going to put thousands of British Columbians out of work.
The BC NDP has allied itself with big union bosses, which is their business. But when they ally themselves with the “president” who is killing Canadian jobs – and thousands of jobs in B.C. – it’s everybody’s business.
Of course they do.
Because Trump’s trade policies are their trade policies — they have the same idiotic views on trade.
What astonished me was how the supposed free traders of the GOP fell into line behind him. Party over country, apparently.
that is some serious spin. Pretzel like spin. BC NDP are NOT trump supporters nor are they looking to ruin working class people.
The BC Lib(who are conservatives in ideology) are friends to big corporations that are sucking the taxpayers dry with alot of corruption and graft.
Yep, the NDP is in the pocket of the unions, and the Liberals are in the pocket of corporations, pick your poison. If Eric Grenier is correct a majority of BCers intend to pick the NDP.

Greyapple,
Colour me skeptical. After all, Christ is in her name.
Sorry Warren but I think you’re reaching here. Plenty of reasons to criticize the BC NDP and their policies. This isn’t one of them.
