B.C. Premier David Eby is preparing for the possibility of forming a minority government as the provincial election remains too close to call. While Eby has expressed readiness to negotiate with the B.C. Green Party, the Greens have indicated that it is too early to begin formal talks. Former Green leader Andrew Weaver has suggested that a minority government deal with the NDP is less likely than in 2017. The election results are still pending, with key ridings being closely contested between the NDP and the Conservative Party of B.C.

Here we go again with the left trying to cling to power. Eby talking about negotiating with the Greens shows how desperate they are to push their radical agenda, even if it means teaming up with eco-extremists. The NDP has been a disaster for B.C. with their reckless spending and overregulation, and now they’re scrambling to hold onto whatever scraps of power they can. People are waking up though, and that's why the Conservatives are gaining ground. We need strong leadership that’ll actually put B.C. citizens and businesses first, not these endless deals and compromises. Let’s hope the Conservatives can finally push these socialists out!

What's the point of all this back-and-forth? Maybe if government had less power over our lives, we wouldn't have to worry so much about which group of politicians makes the deals behind closed doors.
