  1. Frightening! That said, Americans who are not paying attention or getting real news, like my fellow BCers, just might vote for Biden, anyway.

    As least, Premier Horgan is not senile, but he will feel that he has now a solid mandate to implement more commie policies here.

    The BC news coverage ignored all of eastern BC, completely! They never reported on Liberal wins east of Abbotsford. No wonder they would prefer to join Alberta.

    My urban riding went NDP, and I could not vote for Sam Sullivan again (fake Lib) who promoted high density as mayor (future slums). For the first time in my life, I did not vote and I am ashamed. There should be a choice these days for voting “you all suck”.

    1. L,
      We live in Osoyoos and you are right, you would think most people listen to CBC. They have these blinders on and if you mention you like TRUMP, they get angry just at the mention of his name. I can’t believe such a beautiful Province has such left leaning ideas…….So SAD really.
      GO TRUMP GO………. as the saying goes, AS THE US GOES, SO DO WE…… we need a strong USA economy for our own good as it helps us as well. We have a lot of manufacturing in this country that EXPORT to the USA so come on TRUMP, bring it home. (:

      1. Just a week before the election,
        Thousands of voters in Iowa are asking if they can change their votes.
        Only three states allow voter changes,
        Michagin, Wisconsin and Minnesota.

      2. Well, the Canadian TDS virus, is encouraged day in, day out, by our corrupt media, who while providing confirmation bias, just replay the TDS reports from the usual suspects of the American media. The Canadian media is a LAZY, INCOMPETENT band of propaganda grifters, that put more time into puppy kitty whale seal stories, than ACTUAL a in-depth, FAIR reporting.
        Very familiar with Osoyoos, born in Oliver, family in both towns, spent a lot of time there in the 70s, 80s, 90s. Very much, throughout the Okanagan, largely a retirement based region, and, as we see in Kelowna, still largely votes “right”. But, even the seniors are becoming indoctrinated by NDP love of health care, despite their continued mismanagement of it for 3 years. But the NDP a is in favour of it, of course.
        Saw one clip, of an elderly woman, VERY much annoyed at Horgan for calling the unnecessary election, very annoyed, she reassured the reporter.
        But, she said she would still vote for him, despite that. Can’t Fix Stupid!

  2. As Biden’s dementia progresses I sincerely doubt that anyone foolish enough to vote for him will even notice or care that he is drooling in his oatmeal.

    1. very old guy,
      I am also an old guy and you are correct those lefty voters for Biden do not care. They still don’t believe that Hunter’s laptop is real. Jos says the other night at the debate that it is RUSSIANS that put that information into that laptop. These people really have a mental issue if they vote for Jos cause he looks like 100 years old. He will never complete his 4 year term IF he wins.
      Have a good day old guy (:

      1. I stopped in Osoyoos one night while hitch hiking from Vancouver to Castlegar, would have been early summer of 1966. An older couple saw me on the road and it was getting late. Just imagine, they stopped for a young man they had never met, fed him dinner, gave him a place to sleep, and breakfast in the morning, and drove me to the highway after breakfast. Man’s generosity to his fellow, not much like that these days.

        1. old white guy,

          I used to hitch hike a lot in those 1960’s as well but today, it would just be too scary to try that as there are too many crazies in the world…….. If you pick up a hitchhiker today you are taking a big chance with your life…..very few hitch hikers these days…..Oh we get a few in the summer when those Quebekers come to town to pick fruit… I swear they never wash and hair that has all those huge knots in them. Pick up one of these Quebekers up and you would have lice all over your vehicle………….No thank you…..
          Have a good week old guy……

  3. I’m going to call this election as Trump getting the win.
    If I’m wrong I’m wrong, if I’m right I get the pleasure of watching the TDS on full display.

    1. If (when?) Trump wins the TDS will be indescribable, and delicious.

      I’ll hear NY heads exploding 24/7 across Lake Ontario.

  4. Joe doesn’t have an opinion. He’s an empty vessel force fed lines by advisors. If elected, he won’t make any decisions, but he won’t know that he didn’t make any decisions. No offense to old timers out there, but he’s a very old 78.

  5. Conservative thought is in crisis both in the USA and Canada. I admit less so in the USA. Trump has personality issues which make him a poor communicator and far less empathetic with voters. Compare his efforts with one of the greatest American presidents, Ronald Reagan. I support Trump more for his actions than his ability to communicate. Unfortunately in today’s world that does not resonate with younger people.

    IMHO Canada is already lost. BC just elected a socialist government which had no qualms about bribing citizens with a $1000 cheque per family. Isn’t that what passes for politics these days? A campaign where no serious issues were debated and criticism is shunted aside with platitudes of Covid necessity. The BC Liberals ran a top down campaign that never seriously made the effort to reconnect with the grassroots. The Greens are making that effort no matter how misdirected their platform is. It is hard work to build a party involving many countless hours of volunteer work. Sitting infront of a TV camera is the easy part. The BC election was a microcosm of what passes for national politics today.

    As a conservative I am very critical of what passes as conservative thought today. Much of the angst today is a direct result of the failure of center right leadership. Failure to connect with the majority of the population with a coherent message of deferred consumption, responsibility and the cost of government. The current account deficit is currently $50-$60 billion per year. This deficit is -2 to -3% annually when pre-2008 it was in surplus +3-+5%. People have to know how this some of money will be sourced. Why it is important! Currently the federal government is running a ponzi scheme which will destroy the economy of Canada. Canada has no plan to diversify or build the national economy. Canada cannot fund its spending without more and more foreign debt.

    I made the decision some time ago to become a Wexit supporter. I do not see any resolution to Canada’s fate. Our country will become a scene from the sinking of the Titanic as people scramble to save themselves. The West remains a viable option. The east has syphoned $600-$700 billion from the West and to a large extent that is on Western leadership. IMO the change in attitude needed by Westerners for a separate direction is finally happening. We can poke thru the entrails of the Saskatchewan provincial election to discover how far along the Buffalo Party has come. Here in BC that provincial option was not here. However as a old Reformer I know than many NDP’ers were federal Reformers. Much of BC would move to a Wexit theme.

      1. You are correct MikeT, Canadians have been at the trough so long they have forgotten just who fills that trough.

    1. CT…..I Take ISSUE ….. with absolutely NOTHING you wrote.
      100% TRUE on all accounts.

      There is ZERO chance of stopping the Leftist Disease (Socialism), that has been injected into our young populace for the past 50 years. The FIX has been in since Confederation…and there is not even a minUTE chance of that changing. The “IRON Throne” sits in the EAST, All who aspire to Fed Politics must come to Bend the Knee and do as BID. THAT dynamic will also never change – just look at the utter tool leading the Cons.

      I became a Western Separatist Dec 24th 1981, when I was laid off as a Welder Apprentice during Alberta’s earlier conventional Oil Boom. Destroyed by some eastern Prick with the name Trudeau….it took 10 years for our industry to even begin to recover…

      WE MUST LEAVE.
      There is No other SANE option on the table.

    2. But, but, but … our “infrastructure” is crumbling. The brilliant Mr. Obama spent $1.7T on “infrastructure” projects … and not a single ‘proper conservative’ did a forensic analysis of where the money went (mainly to State and Local government salaries – to forestall a shrinking of government as the entire economy shrunk up like a stack of dimes). That LIE needed conservative exposure.

      I will take PDJT’s awkward … SEEMINGLY uneducated … rhetoric coupled with the correct actions, over a TelePrompTer reader of ANY political affiliation. And I hope you can discern that I am highly educated and verbally adept … yet I can ‘accept’ PDJT’s rough edges. I believe the average American is unbothered by Trump’s construction trailer speaking manner. It is only my fellow University educated “elites” who are bothered. It’s only the LYING media who mock Trump’s “style”. Yet … PDJT’s Tweets are religiously followed by everyone … just to read what he might say next. That’s not a bug … it’s a feature.

      Conservative thoughts, actions, and policies are NEVER going “sound” as warm and wonderful as “gimme FREE STUFF”. Conservatism is the path less traveled. It isn’t a necessarily ‘hard journey’ … but it is a ‘careful journey’. A journey on one’s own two feet … not carried piggyback by your Big Brother. Yes, our youth need to be educated in the wisdom of a conservative life … but then, we will be called “prudes” or “mean” … or “un-feeling”.

    3. Our socialistic past and the multiple ponzi schemes actually began in 1908 with an early version of the OAS, ramped up in the Depression, and took off like the COVID first wave after that. The History Museum views this positively.

      https://www.historymuseum.ca/cmc/exhibitions/hist/pensions/cpp-m1867_e.html

      One could even argue that it began with “universal education” before we were a country, rooted in French Catholic and Scottish Presbyterian systems of education.

      I agree with you, CT, WEXIT is an attractive option. The lower mainland would need a couple of decades of re-education, starting with the school curriculum. My 1817 pioneer ancestors are no longer celebrated as nation-builders, as they were when I went to school in Alberta. They are now just multicult “settlers” who owe unending debts to whiny “first nations”, many of whom were Americans, especially in the Prairies and Ontario, but not in BC. Actually, BC Indians are doing fine, FTMP.

    4. The most corrupting facet of democracy is the essentially conflicted notion of re-election. Politicians with their paws in the till should not be allowed to run for office again. Buying votes is not the purpose of public service and yet that is all it has become. Democracy, the notion of giving consent by the governed would be better served by eliminating elections and parties and drafting citizens for one term similar to jury duty. Such a system could only work under a proper constitution and drafting one should be the goal of Wexiteers otherwise geographical separation will mimic the rest of the western world in political folly. The only appeal of separation to the mindless mushy middle that dominate all politics is the promise of domestically looted spoils for a smaller local constituency. IOW, what good is Wexit if all it results in is a smaller but temporarily wealthier welfare state on the same road to perdition. It’s the culture of liberty that is lacking and politics is downstream of culture.

      Have you watched Trump at any rallies, the more so lately? (They’re full of people of all ages.) He’s an excellent communicator. And funny. AND empathetic. Ordinary peoplr know he has worked his tail off for them, daily, while enduring the most intense hatred ever seen by a President. Which is why millions of Americans truly, deeply love the man.

    6. CT –
      …many NDP’ers were federal Reformers.
      You are shittin’ me, right? You are shittin’ someone, perhaps yourself. No Reformers that I know would be voting Commie-light! Can’t happen given the difference in the policies. Bad enough that we succomed to the Progressives but even they didn’t move that far left into Commie territory!

      1. My comment of NDP’er support for Reform is based on my experience as a Reform organizer. Many of these people were originally from Saskatchewan. Farmers are pretty solid people and spending a dollar has to have a rationale. I had NDP organizers at the local level complain to me about losing support. Our Reform MP won 3 elections with over 60% support. I am not suggesting there was a massive shift to Reform by the NDP. What I am saying was at the grassroots Reform did have an appeal for enough NDP’ers that I noticed.

  6. It is precisely BECAUSE of these frighteningly awkward and awful statements … that a “LID” has been placed on Candidate Biden. He remains under Democrat House arrest while $hundreds of millions in homespun propaganda advertisements substitute for a real candidate. The image of a coherent, robust, and compassionate Joe Biden is broadcast every 5-minutes on TV, Radio, and Internet. All FALSE advertising promoting LIES about their fatally-compromised candidate.

    SHE spent more than $1B in a quest for POWER … and it appears as though HE will surpass that amount. And remain hidden from view, and blocked from inter-view.

    If our “Truth in Advertising” Laws don’t extend to political campaign messages … they should.

  7. Biden could not endure one day of work in the White House. He is aging rapidly and nothing can change this. The Democrats chose the wrong candidate and, if Trump does not score a second mandate, the USA will be in deep doodoo. Kamala does not have sufficient skills to lead the USA out of a financial abyss, which is overdue.

    If Trump wins, then there will be a winter of chaotic rebellion, as the paid Antifa and other players try to continue destruction and support TDS. Either way, this is a bad scene, at least for the short term.

    We are in for a depression and scary times in either case.

    1. The US is doomed regardless of who gets to live in the White House. It is financially crippled with debt and a Congress that will continue looting the treasury as long as the FED will generate dollars from nothing to support it. Trump would stand up better to the coming CCP inspired war better than dirty Joe as Joe would negotiate away half the planet as a first installment for more under-the-table CCP money assuming he lives that long. Kamala would simply surrender after directing a suicide mission for the military as will the Spawn.

      1. JC, I predict that it will also be Canada doomed as well. Since Kate, SDA, requested predictions for the next year, late last year, I have been saying there will be civil war, or something close to it, and the riots in the US are the beginning. Then this US election will be the catalyst, so prepare. As to the US dollar, there are a number of problems that keep creating the so called bubbles, each bubble bigger than the one before, and the fed prints billions of fiat currency to support the economy and keep interest rates low to keep the massive national debt contained, euphemistically called quantative easing! Eventually, there will be a final bubble they can’t rescue, and it will all collapse. The US greenback will fall as the world exchange currency due to this failure, and the Chinese Yuan is deliberately waiting in the wings to pounce on the opportunity, and they have gold to back up their currency. There will be deprivation of all kinds in North America for maybe a decade. If you have money, you might consider changing it for gold and silver real quick, and get out of debt as much as you possibly can. All I can say is, again, PREPARE, we’re all gonna need it! I hope I’m wrong. If everything crashes, and it might, I sincerely want to thank the SDA posters for all their comments and wisdom.
