Calling elections early, maybe not such a great idea (lemmy.ca)

So it's been called, 100 years since conservatives have been the majority in BC. A record that should have kept going for at least two more years but instead Eby tried for a power grab and shit the bed so bad that he isn't even leader any more.

I was unhappy living in a conservative riding but at least they didn't have control, I wonder how long before a bigger schemer will wrestle control from Dorkson, he isn't exactly charismatic just less of a shit than Eby.

Now we are all going to be suffering under the control of party that will give very little to help people and put businesses first, which is going to be bad for everyone including businesses in the long run.

Short-time thinking on Eby (and NDP) part. They toyed with proportional representation, they should've stuck to their remaining 2yr mandate, get proportional representation and save us all the embarrassment. Also BC NDPs leaned so far right they were past 2000's Liberals to the right... so I guess it's time for them, like for Dems down south to do some soul searching and find their roots.
