Falcon acknowledged Tuesday talks are underway behind the scenes between the two right-of-centre parties, including exploring the possibility of merger-type options.
“We have to put aside our own egos, our own party issues – everything else – and just figure out whether there’s common ground, we can keep in mind the most important objective, which is making sure that we don’t end up with another NDP government,” said Falcon.
A source with the BC Conservatives told CTV News that Gordon Campbell has been asked to represent Kevin Falcon and BC United in behind-the-scenes discussions to see if a deal or common ground can be found between the two parties.
Well this is disconcerting. I can’t believe we might lose the best government we’ve had in like 40 years because of this.
I’m disappointed, BC.
Noooo fuck if they join their voters NDP is screwed
I hope BC United comes out on top of BC conservatives
The BC LiberalSoCreds vs the Cons? It’s two constituent parties against one, so … maybe?
Hey. Between the three of them maybe they can devise an actual platform.
Can you imagine if they stopped fucking fighting each other and actually did shit thats good for the provinces and country…for once…
The Conservatives and BC United have no intention of doing good, regardless of their infighting.
Doing things that are beneficial to the citizenry is incompatible with the modern conservative mindset and policies.
Falcon is partisan establishment, Rustad is principaled, United have nothing to offer if Rustad will wait 4 years until a BC Conservative majority with the rabid loonies in opposition, United will not mean anything.
