Another empty Conservative candidate's spot at an all candidates event. Dodging press conferences, 'secret' gatherings, not being available to voters. All part of what's sure to continue if the Cons are elected.

Anybody else think it's weird to sign your name on provincial legislature leaderhead if you're not a member? Is the legislature supporting/ endorsing federal candidates now? 🤔 @jasjohal.bsky.social @jmcelroy.bsky.social @keithbaldrey.bsky.social @cbcstephenquinn.bsky.social

As the NDP candidate in the North Island-Powell River riding (including large numbers of CV residents),Tanille is up against Aaron Gunn, clone of PP. Please increase her followers, and don't split the vote! Liberals have not been a factor here in 50 years.

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users.

ALL ROAD USERS.
