Child-Care Feedback Loop
The NDP paused new $10-a-day child-care enrolment, faced provider funding warnings, and is now asking families and operators for more feedback.
Treaty Passed, Warnings Unresolved
The KβΓ³moks Treaty Act passed while Wei Wai Kum and UBCIC warned that serious territorial-overlap and consent concerns remained unresolved.
Spring Session Scoreboard
Eby called the spring session a success. CityNewsβ scorecard pointed to deficit pressure, DRIPA trouble, health-care strain and delayed projects.
What Else Is on the DRIPA List?
Eby finally named two DRIPA-linked court examples β an ICBC benefits dispute and the Willingdon class action β while still refusing to release the full case list.
DRIPA Goes to the Supreme Court
The Supreme Court of Canada will hear B.C.βs appeal in the GitxaaΕa/Ehattesaht mineral-claims case β a direct test of what the NDPβs DRIPA framework means in law.
Half a Million, Two Tenants
Global News reports B.C. funding of $547,100 over two months while Vancouverβs 140-room Colonial Hotel SRO was winding down with two tenants remaining.
Changing the Rules on FOI
Bill 9 was already a transparency problem. Now the Opposition says the NDP is bending legislative convention to rescue its own FOI amendments.
Closed Door, Empty Receipts
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.
The North Remembers LNG
Claire RattΓ©eβs 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.
The $3.86B Wastewater Bill
A $235-million settlement does not answer how Metro Vancouverβs North Shore wastewater project grew from about $700 million to $3.86 billion. Taxpayers still need the inquiry.
Primary Care Bottleneck
More than 700,000 British Columbians lack a family doctor while B.C.-trained nurse practitioners report stalled hiring and limited openings. The system needs care, not bottlenecks.
New Homes, New Costs
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.
Nurses Send a Strike-Vote Warning
More than 50,000 BCNU members voted May 8β11 and delivered what the union called its strongest strike mandate. On May 22, the file moved to a tentative-agreement/ratification watch; workload, violence, benefits and vacancies remain front-line warnings.
Debt Is Not a Family Mortgage
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.
Moo-re Spending Coming Soon
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?
Private Planes for Prisoners
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.
Unanswered in Supportive Housing
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.
The Sinking NDP Ship
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.
Ministerial Override
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 Treaty Bulldozer
The NDP is forcing through K’Γ³moks 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.
“Re-Paced” = Cancelled
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.
The Hostage Statement
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.
$155 Billion Mountain
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.
The DRIPA Stamp
A BC homeowner clutches their deed as the DRIPA bureaucracy descends. Aboriginal title can now override private property rights β and Eby waves it through.
The Renaming Crew
NDP politicians paint over BC school signs with names no one can pronounce β while classrooms sit empty. Symbols over substance. Every time.
$13.3 Billion Cliff
Eby stands proudly at the edge of BC's $13.3B deficit hole β while taxpayers teeter behind him. From $6B surplus to $13.3B deficit in three years.
