So Trump threatens tariffs if we don’t fix our border security and fentanyl, and Eby responds with “Premier David Eby has announced the creation of a new cabinet committee to protect British Columbia's economy against Donald Trump's tariff threat.” That’ll go well for BC on Feb 1!

Does "helping Canadians" mean "printing more money" and "pumping inflation "?

You are like An elderly woman complained to Trudeau that the carbon tax was hurting her. Trudeau replied: Mom, the carbon tax is not in place yet.

[@rkgrant]

yes, BC doesn't require those sources of revenue for its schools, hospitals and freeways...we can use the BC budget ''surplus'' to offset your proposed cancelled PST and carbon tax. (sarcasm intended) unfortunately there is no such surplus

[@EmilRosin]

Lower taxes.

[@raiseyourvibes127]

Eby, please resign. You are not fit for premier.

[@laharsent]

From BC… I don’t support his perspective

[@Grimshire]

Eby is the worst premier, not a word said until opinions are presented and still can't get it right. Just reinforce your border, open your ears.
