Raging forest fires: surprise pikachu face
I am at a loss to understand how BC’s NDP party can actually be deemed an NDP party when they act like a Con party in almost every way.
They are becoming the BC Liberals.
It’s nice when environmentalism and progressivism align, but it’s often circumstantial when it does. Environmental protection kind of floats between parties at seemingly random. Remember the national parks system and wetland conservation were actually initiatives by conservatives. It’s an issue that doesn’t sit comfortably in either left or right wing camps.
We desperately need new parties here in BC, our options suck. :(
The Greens seem to have a plucky and dynamic new leader?
I vote green, but it would be nice to have more than one party who cared about the environment.
First you would need more * people * who cared more about the environment than their pocket book.
Well, the Greens need to also connect the dots between protecting the environment and dismantling the exploitative economic system that fucks us all over. The UK Greens are doing it pretty well at the moment and from what I’ve seen from Lowan the BC Greens are also going down that lane.
They are trying to some degree, but a lot of Canadian Greens also fall on the more conservative side,which under the current circumstances is a wild position, but it’s there all the same.
