Why does no one appreciate the bc ndp for signing onto the national pharmacare program?

Thus saving families hundreds every year through bulk buying.

When most premiers have entirely refused to work with the program like Susan Holt, Danielle Smith, Doug Ford, Tim Houston, Tony Wakeman and Scott Moe. Leaving tax allocated taxpayer money sitting for years.

Only 3 provincial government have done the work to improve healthcare like BC, PEI and Manitoba.

This is not a zero-sum game. It is possible for two things to be true at the same time.

I appreciate pharmacare, I don't appreciate:

  • discretionary funding of forestry and mining companies to essentially do what they want via unchecked and often unregistered lobbying
  • erosion of indigenous rights
  • erosion of human rights
  • health care in bc in general, but especially how health authorities in rural areas have little oversight
  • erosion of union rights

I voted green.

I hate that they have no platform or experience, but I hate more that either the right-wing bastards get in instead of the NDP, or that Eby continues to cowtow to corporate interests and pressure.

At least neither the PCs nor OneBC will get my vote.

We do not have PCs here, this is not Manitoba.

The greens do have a platform.

I wish more ridings had strong green candidates.

I'm originally from Manitoba, old habit.

The greens do have a platform.

It's weak, in the sense that a core of Greens might understand it well, but too many green candidates can't speak to these issues.

Some of us do, and still voted for them...even after the huge mistake Eby made in calling an election this early.
