The B C Liberals need a new name Here are six options

iPolitics By Andrew Fleming. Published on Jun 22, 2021 4:17pm Do you remember where you were when Sidney Crosby scored the gold-winning goal in overtime? Vote for the B.C. Olympics Party!” Kevin Falcon (Kevin Falcon photo) Queen Victoria probably didn’t put a great deal of thought into it, when she decided to name a distant colonial outpost “British Columbia.” Last month, a resolution was put forward at the Lower Mainland Local Government Association’s annual general meeting asking that the province come up with something that better reflects the region’s history and cultural diversity. There’s a certain irony that the motion came from Pemberton, a picturesque mountain town of roughly 2,500 people on unceded Lil’wat Nation territory, itself named after a Hudson’s Bay Company surveyor who never set foot there. In the end, only 40 per cent of fellow municipalities voted to seek a provincial rebranding.

Time to stop playing nice with fossil fuel companies

In the face of the climate emergency, this is the time of our Phoney War. Most of us know the battle for our lives must soon get underway, and most of our leaders in government and industry are now talking tough on climate. But in deeds, they aren’t there yet. Among the many barriers we face to a genuine climate emergency plan is a fossil fuel industry that has insidiously used its economic and political power to stall meaningful action. If this story has a villain, it is the oil and gas corporations and their leaders (not their workers) who outright lied for decades about the truth of climate change, and more recently have done everything in their power to systematically delay and divert the need for climate action. The fossil fuel industry, in pursuit of its financial self-interest and preservation, has become expert at preying on our fears, misgivings and desires.
