The Penticton Shooting Sport Association (PSSA) is where many RCMP and other agencies use to keep up their skills. Has the Government of Canada figured out where these agents will train if they cancel the PSSA lease?ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/P…

BC NDP gives BC Ferries contract to a Chinese Communist Party controlled shipyard despite CSIS report "The PRC has repeatedly shown that it is willing to use clandestine and deceptive means to acquire intellectual property and emerging technologies, most notably those related to

Glad to see this published. Lots of unanswered questions- including security risks. Too bad it was not published by either the Province or the Federal Government, but leaked on a Friday night, after the House of Commons is closed and Ministers are not subject to pesky QP.

The Liberals can put tariffs on these made in China ferries the same way they did for made in China electric vehicles. The Liberals hold the hammer here if they really mean what they say in this letter.

This is wrong on many levels. Not going to point fingers but local government hiring lobbyists is not something we want to normalize.

The NDP under Premier Eby has become unfit to govern. This is completely unacceptable. “A three-year-old little boy getting pumped with fentanyl to deal with the pain management, because he had to prolong the wait to get surgery," Martinez said.” castanet.net/news/Kelowna/5…

BC NDP created Bill 15. The fed. Liberals created Bill C-5. Both of these Bills attempt to provide new powers to bypass the unnavigable regulatory environment these governments have created. They should be fixing the barriers instead of politically picking winners & losers.

The Liberals "elbows up" campaign was clearly based on deception and fear-mongering. We are at a point now where Liberals no longer campaign on their record in office. Instead, they depend on deception & fear as a tactic. Increasingly amplified by friendly media and pundits.

This BC NDP government has now gotten as bad if not worse than the 1991-2001 NDP Government. It is almost as if they have given up in many areas.

In opposition the NDP oppose the expansion of for-profit delivery of B.C. Healthcare services. When in govt. the NDP do everything they oppose when in opposition. "Interior Health plans to close its Trail medical lab on July 28, moving those employees to the hospital and the

The TMX expansion is expected to be at full capacity within 2 years. How many years would it take to get a new pipeline built that was more than just an expansion of an original pipeline? Eby's short-sighted views explain much on why NDP is failing BC healthcare in many ways.

The RCMP performs critically important & dangerous work on behalf of the public. It is of vital importance they have a proper training range locally. Fortunately, they do at little cost to taxpayers. Do not let the fed. Liberal government shut down the Penticton Shooting

Those who know me will know I am far from being an alarmist. I am deeply concerned right now as I have never witnessed a Prov. Gov. failing so severely across the board as BC NDP. I am alarmed as I see no effort, concern or even acknowledgment that serious changes are needed.

With respect sir, what about the security for everyday Canadian families being victimized by habitual criminals always out on bail? What about the threats many Jewish Canadians are experiencing in schools, places of worship & small businesses? Why ignore these threats?

This is the same situation in the Okanagan happening at "urgent primary care clinics". Many citizens will wait several hours only to be told no Dr. is available to see them. The only alternative at that point is an ER. This is yet another NDP failure.

Hopefully PM Carney will take some time out of his latest trip to Europe and fix this. Security here at home matters and the Penticton RCMP need proper facilities to train. This one is perfect and already established.
