🏨🌄 Mike and Kate interview BC Conservative leader John Rustad, the third of three provincial leaders contesting the upcoming BC election to visit Hotel Pacifico in recent weeks. “Shot out of a cannon” as leader in March 2023, the Conservative leader has been riding an upward trajectory in the polls. Rustad discusses involuntary care, the state of BC’s finances, the carbon tax, and DRIPA, among other issues. Mike & Kate also probe Rustad on his parrot, Biardi, and how he plans to feather him into the campaign.
Geoff joins Mike & Kate in the #StrategySuite. The trio discuss the policy shifts undertaken by Premier Eby and the NDP over the past week on involuntary care and the carbon tax, and the message those shifts send to voters on the eve of the election. They also discuss plans for Hotel Pacifico’s daily election coverage that will start Monday, September 23rd .
