Faaackkk. This election will directly impact my job, from salary to working conditions. I can’t even imagine working under a provincial Conservative government run by kooks and extremists. I thought we were safe here.
Once again, remember that a lot of this has to do with the brand and consequent Poilievre honeymoon "bleed".
Still, when all is said and done, one precedent for this kind of kooks-out-of-nowhere-in-BC is the first federal Reform Party election in 1993.
I understand the context, but accidents still happen. Think of all those out-of-nowhere NDP MPs in 2011.
