B.C. Conservatives aim to appeal to “ordinary” workers. Poilievre visits Duncan and Nanaimo on Wednesday.
Federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre kicked off a four-day tour of Vancouver Island in Greater Victoria on Tuesday with a “boots not suits” approach to appeal to “ordinary” workers.
“Meanwhile, the housing costs have doubled under the NDP-Liberals which means that working people can’t afford a home. B.C. now has the most expensive housing prices in the world. … You have so much land, it doesn’t make any sense.” Congress president Bea Bruske said the party has an anti-worker track record and history of cutting health care.“But his long track record of attacking workers’ rights and siding with profitable corporations over everyday people makes clear the kind of leader he would be if he gained power.”
A healthy crowd attended but “several of our employees exercised that option and so be it,” said Gerrett. Having listened to Poilievre, Gerrett said he prefers to hear less criticism of the current state of affairs and fewer easy answers or fixes to complex problems.
