Given the chance, I think her words could resonate in a Provincial election against both the David Eby #BCNDP and the Rustad #BCConservatives (and whatever other parties happen to pop into existence).

It was nice to see a leader actually genuinely congratulate and lift up her rivals in the contest. A rarity these days in too many party leadership races!

Key lines from her speech:

"take on this province's billionaires, largest corporations, and big oil... who take far more than they give.

"democracy is in retreat around the globe, but I am encouraged to see young people in BC fighting back.”

"the BC Green Party has solutions”

"the BC NDP.. are making decisions based on scarcity and fear”

"David Eby... rolling out the red carpet for Donald Trump's inner circle of oligarchs to buy and control even more of our province”.

"The NDP's big idea… to double down on raw resource exports.... no manufacturing, no innovation, no vision for a future beyond more foreign billionaires ripping and shipping our resources while families wait for the wealth to trickle down.”

“while workers wait for fair wages and homes we can afford, the BC NDP doubles down on MAGA backed fossil fuel projects, ignores the need to obtain consent, and refuses to care for our community members”

”The horrors that we are witnessing now are the death rattle of the old world.”

"it is up to us force a new world through”

"We can build a plan to take back the public wealth that has been looted with real taxation on the ultra wealthy”

"Build on our massive advantage of renewable energy… create thousands of jobs”

"will reclaim BC's economy for working people… together we can build a resilient thriving province that respects indigenous sovereignty and our planetary boundaries.”

“we are worthy of better, and worthy of hope. When we learn to believe that again, we can win.”
