🖼️ Political Cartoons — newest first
Stewart Phillip and Joan Phillip as puppet masters controlling BC NDP politician...
BC Housing’s latest registry report shows new-home registrations down 18.9% year over year, with purpose-built rentals down 56.6%. B.C. needs delivery math, not launch-day slogans.
Statistics Canada and Global News reported only a modest early visitor bump while B.C. promoted a $1-billion GDP case and major public costs. Taxpayers deserve the receipts.
Federal OSB data shows B.C. total BIA insolvencies rose 17.2% year over year in June 2026. Families deserve a cost-of-living scoreboard, not another slogan.
Summerland wineries lost peak-season traffic after the Bald Range wildfire evacuation. B.C. should show the plan for farm access, repairs, workers and tourism marketing.
The Williams Lake timber supply review covers a huge Cariboo land base, a nearly three-million-cubic-metre AAC and 28 Nations’ input. Rural communities deserve clear jobs, fibre and timeline numbers.
B.C. points to Nanaimo as a chronic-property-offending pilot community. Downtown businesses are still describing vandalism and missing supports, so the program needs public results.
Transit workers in Metro Vancouver and Victoria chose a visible uniform ban while keeping buses and SeaBus moving. B.C. should fix the pressure points before riders become the leverage.
B.C. denies a Portugal-sized Tahltan land handover is being negotiated. The public should not have to sort allegations, old agreements and scattered records without a clear land-and-title ledger.
Postmedia reported $4 billion of B.C.’s 2025-26 capital plan went unspent, with named slippage on hospitals, Surrey rapid transit and Highway 1. Big plans need a public delivery scoreboard.
B.C. temporarily prohibited recreational off-road vehicles on Crown land in major fire centres during hot, dry wildfire conditions. The prevention rule needs clear trigger criteria and visible enforcement.
CBC reported Prince George is demolishing the former Knights Inn Motel after B.C. Housing used it as a 44-unit temporary supportive-housing site. The replacement capacity and costs need a public ledger.
Global News reported federal shelter assistance was approved while some Bald Range wildfire evacuees described sleeping in vehicles and roughly 14-hour ESS registration waits.
Global News reported a normally short Summerland-to-Kelowna care-home move became a four- or five-hour wildfire evacuation route after Highway 97 closed. B.C. needs visible seniors-care emergency planning.
B.C. rescinded the Salmon River fish-protection order after farmers and ranchers warned wildfire risk changed the equation. Rural water planning has to work before the emergency week.
Global News and CBC reported Summerland was placed under evacuation order as the Bald Range wildfire grew explosively Friday night. B.C. needs a clearer emergency threshold.
CBC reported B.C. asking rents fell year over year in July, but Rentals.ca/Urbanation data still put the province near the top of Canada’s rental-affordability crisis.
Global News says a classified CBSA guide describes the Bishnoi gang’s growing presence in Canada. B.C. needs measurable results, victim protection and clear community warnings.
Eby’s push for U.S.-style anti-racketeering laws should come with public metrics, civil-liberties guardrails and an honest accounting of what current B.C. programs have not fixed.
Montrose is appealing the refusal to reopen the Cowichan title case, keeping B.C.’s private-property certainty questions active while appeals continue.
B.C.’s Sea to Sky consultation closed July 20 after proposing Land Act objectives for cultural sites and special cultural management areas covering more than 20,000 hectares.
BCNU says nurses are still facing violence, abuse and short staffing while government and health employers have yet to meaningfully act on safety measures put forward months ago.
B.C. says as many as 865 people involved in repeat violent, property and public-disorder offences will be monitored provincewide, including 365 in the Lower Mainland.
BCNU says bargaining is at an impasse again, Surrey picket lines are up, Vancouver Island dates are scheduled, and nurses have filed more than 2,300 alleged intimidation reports.
B.C. has opened conservation planning for about 127,000 hectares in Qat’muk, Skagit Headwaters and Raush Valley, with a three-year pause on new Qat’muk mineral-tenure applications.
BC Ferries riders face a temporary 5% fuel surcharge now while major-vessel relief starts in 2029 and the first four Summit Class ships are built in China.
B.C.’s new chronic property-offender hubs are an admission that repeat theft, vandalism and street disorder are real — but the justice system still needs capacity.
KSM shows the gap between B.C.’s critical-minerals sales pitch and the NDP government’s record on consultation, permitting certainty and northern resource jobs.
Montrose lost its bid to reopen the Cowichan title case. Appeals continue, but B.C. voters still deserve transparent notice where private land may be affected.
B.C. terminated the Fraser River Tunnel final-construction path with Cross Fraser Partnership and is retendering remaining work while commuters keep using the old bottleneck.
Global News reports B.C. is the only province not covering Luspatercept for myelodysplastic syndrome while the NDP government points to its drug-review process.
Surrey’s police transition is facing a chief ouster, board resignations and renewed questions about provincial accountability for a transition Victoria forced forward.
Eby finally named two DRIPA-linked court examples — an ICBC benefits dispute and the Willingdon class action — while still refusing to release the full case list.
The Supreme Court of Canada will hear B.C.’s appeal in the Gitxaała/Ehattesaht mineral-claims case — a direct test of what the NDP’s DRIPA framework means in law.
Global News reports B.C. funding of $547,100 over two months while Vancouver’s 140-room Colonial Hotel SRO was winding down with two tenants remaining.
Premier Eby got the meeting with Mark Carney. British Columbians still need the actual ledger: jobs, revenue, timelines and who is accountable for pipeline conditions.
Claire Rattée’s viral legislature clash puts the LNG credit fight back where it belongs: with Northern B.C. workers, communities and resource families who remember who stood with them.
A $235-million settlement does not answer how Metro Vancouver’s North Shore wastewater project grew from about $700 million to $3.86 billion. Taxpayers still need the inquiry.
Earlier reporting said more than 700,000 British Columbians lacked a family doctor; the latest provincial dashboard says roughly 23% remain unattached to primary care while B.C.-trained nurse practitioners report stalled hiring and limited openings.
CHBA BC warned Eby that Budget 2026 tax changes and code timing risk making new homes harder to build. Affordability promises do not survive added cost layers.
More than 50,000 BCNU members voted May 8–11 and delivered what the union called its strongest strike mandate. On June 19, nurses rejected the tentative agreement; workload, violence, benefits and vacancies remain front-line warnings.
Eby defended borrowing as investment while B.C. faced a record deficit, rising debt and 40,000 jobs lost in the first four months of 2026. Voters deserve more than analogies.
Food prices are painful enough without more taxes, more regulation and more NDP spending piled on top. Share the cartoon and ask: have British Columbians had enough bull?
CBC News, May 6, 2026: B.C. taxpayers have spent more than $300,000 on private aircraft to move prisoners to and from court after transport failures and a contempt ruling involving senior ministers. Basic justice logistics, luxury workaround.
Canadian Press, May 6, 2026: a B.C. supportive-housing killing helped spur law reform. Years later, relatives are still asking why it remains unsolved. Reform announcements are not the same as accountability.
Angus Reid, May 5, 2026: BC NDP at 36% — lowest since 2020. Eby approval 33%. Leaderless Conservatives lead by 10 points. 47% want DRIPA repealed, including 26% of NDP voters. The coalition is breaking apart.
Two prior overdose sites in the same downtown Vancouver neighbourhood closed after complaints. Today, VCH announced a third one two blocks away — citing a provincial NDP “ministerial order.” Mayor Ken Sim: “No meaningful consultation.”
The NDP is forcing through K’ómoks and Kitselas treaties with no consultation of neighbouring First Nations who hold overlapping land claims. Wei Wai Kum is threatening blockades of a BC Hydro dam that provides 50% of Vancouver Island’s power. The NDP: full steam ahead.
Burnaby Hospital Phase 2 — a $1.8B acute care tower — had its construction contract terminated. Seven long-term care homes across BC: same. The NDP won’t say “cancelled.” They call it “re-paced.” Vaughn Palmer calls it what it is.
Eby prepared to suspend DRIPA. Then surrendered completely by Sunday evening. A Vancouver Sun columnist wrote he “reminded observers of a hostage reading a statement prepared by his captors.” His own cabinet heard about it from a reporter.
BC’s total provincial debt is approaching $155 billion under Eby. The debt-to-GDP ratio will more than double — from 22.3% to 46%+ — by 2028. Debt servicing is already the third-largest government expense. This is the bill coming due.
A BC homeowner clutches their deed as the DRIPA bureaucracy descends. Aboriginal title can now override private property rights — and Eby waves it through.
BCNU escalated job action with a July 7 Vancouver General Hospital picket line while maintaining essential services. Eby’s health-care labour crisis reached the front door of VGH.
Ottawa has put a December 1 deadline behind participation in B.C.’s Tahltan Foundation Agreement talks. Voters deserve to know what is being negotiated.
