The prospect of an early election in British Columbia is receding after the government announced that legislation to suspend parts of the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act will no longer be a confidence vote.
Premier David Eby said last week that he was staking his government on the passage of the legislation, but NDP house leader Mike Farnworth says it won’t go before the legislature this week, and when it does it won’t be a confidence measure.

Farnworth says NDP legislator Joan Phillip, who is Indigenous, has indicated she is unable to vote for the bill, which has garnered widespread opposition from First Nations leaders, including Phillip’s husband, Grand Chief Stewart Phillip.
The NDP has a one seat majority in the legislature, and Farnworth says the government is still looking for a “path forward” on the legislation, but adds that it is “nonsense” to suggest that Eby has lost the confidence of the house.
Eby has said the declaration act, known as DRIPA, poses significant legal peril to the province, after it was interpreted in a recent court decision to mean it should be incorporated into B.C. laws “with immediate legal effect.”
Farnworth says the legislation to pause DRIPA, which is based on the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, will be tabled during the current spring legislative session.
More to come.
I say that, until the natives make a claim on the land my parents’ house sits on, then suddenly my w oke joke azz is out of a basement suite. And my McDonald’s pay won’t cover rent anywhere. I’m really just a moron.
Yours truly,
White People Invented Racism (AKA “JV”)
Damn the white trash Conservatives in BC and Alberta just can’t stop crying about the aboriginals getting more land and more money and this is just the beginning. Better grab a whole box of tissues boys because the party is just getting started
Now that there are so many “JV” comments, with possibly more to come, this will have the inevitable effect of people just completely ignoring them and reading everyone else’s. Damn.
In part due to my lack of education, I like to overuse the term N azi everywhere, sort of like what happened with “racist” and other words. This of course completely dilutes its true meaning and unintentionally blunts any troll effect I was failing at regardless. FYI I’m referring to the w okester personality JV.
You see, I’ve got two things over all you bast ard white guys. I’ve chemically treated my skin so that I’m off-white and could be many races, and my penis is so small it’s almost indiscernible, so I could kinda be any sex.
Typical cowardly whiteboy N A Z I in Canada. Winning in his own mind but losing in reality. Too funny
Damn you’re resorting back to McDonald’s comments. That’s really unfortunate buddy. I thought you’d be able to come up with something better than that with that “high IQ” of yours😂😂😂 but at the end of the day you’re like a parrot that just repeats the same thing over and over again
Again copying me just proves how hurt you are over my comments. Oh no I’m getting made fun of by a bunch of desperate N A Z I whiteboys that can’t stop crying because Canada is no longer listening to them 🤣🤣🤣
There are too many white people in this McDonald’s. I should feel safer at my work. I think it’s time to start adding cyanide to the pop machine.
Sorry everyone, my w okester, white guilt ridden personality got so angry and triggered by everyone making fun of him, he had to come up with a hundred replies there. Once he takes the body over again, it’s back to punching walls for me. Sometimes watching TikTok soothes him though, but that can also be information overload.
Jean Chrétien Sr – Thanks for proving my point. Much appreciated
Anonymous – This is very true. You guys have been out trolled by me ever since I started coming around here. It’s actually pretty easy considering all of you white trash warriors are the exact carbon copy of the next. Just mindless idiots that follow the same wannabe alpha male authority figures
At this JV jerk.
How are the Liberal and NDP new fast track bills, which limit endless FN consultation, and the BC NDP gutting DRIPA losing? Sounds like things are swinging back if you ask me.
How would a highly probable Conservative next BC Govt repealing DRIPA be losing? Come on think.
JV, the greatest warrior. Keyboard that is.
Man I love this country. Where the little whiteboy N A Z I S are losing and literally everyone else is winning. Even the Indians 🤣🤣🤣
Don’t worry boys. You couldn’t take me on in person either. You’d be laid out on the ground faster than Mark Carney forming a majority government in Canada 🇨🇦
Anonymous – Yet I can easily take all of you whiteboy cowards on by myself. One guy got so frustrated he resorted to copying me because he can’t handle the reality of my posts. Too funny
Aww the copycat troll is upset because I said something about white people. Man this guy is so sensitive. Either way I could only imagine what a skinny little coward this guy is in real life. Too funny 🤣🤣🤣
Oh look the copycat troll is back! Wow not one mention about McDonald’s this. I proud of you buddy 🤣🤣🤣
I have multiple personality disorder, and my much lower IQ, white-hating, T D S, w oke joke of a personality got himself completely b itch slapped in this story, as he does in every story. He can’t stand the fact that DRIPA is going bye bye and white people will keep their land.
JV came along and filled a gap. Everyone was missing the Total Clown.
The Global comment section has always been a safe haven for these white nationalist N A Z I S.. Until I came around 🤣🤣🤣
I don’t hate whites. My gf is from Poland. Most of my friends are white. I only hate the racist whites.. and trust me there’s a lot of them. Especially around here
JV why so much hate to whites? We are all one people. The aboriginals need to join the rest of mankind and stop acting like they are the special golden ones. All reserves need to be abolished. The aboriginals government entities need to be abolished. The aboriginals all need to be under the same like the rest of Canadians. DRIPA needs to be dropped it is a pile of bull s–t.
If N A Z I Doug knew anything then he’d know that all of the lower mainland belongs to First Nations and we have no problems with taking back one small piece at a time
Just another day down here at Bridge Studios putting N A Z I S like Doug Brekfaust in their place. Some white privilege clown that pays a few thousand dollars in property taxes every year and suddenly thinks he knows everything about First Nations land rights 🤣🤣🤣
Will Smith – Oh look another white trash coward defending Doug
JV lol 😂 you’re crying in your beer! And got slapped by DB
They still pulling their tricks as usual I say pack up and leave our territories if they don’t want to honour their word
After saying last week that the vote on DRIPA would be a confidence vote Eby again backtracks and screws the people of BC yet again. The man just cannot be trusted. As the saying goes “He who speaks with forked tongue talks out of both sides of his two faces.”
So Eby has lied to the people of BC again he said it would be a confidence vote and now it’s not. It’s always been a running joke that you cannot believe a thing a politician says and Eby is proving that every time he opens his mouth. More proof you can’t believe a word Eby says about anything
I always thought the oath of office said something about representing all constituents. Now we know where one person stands and it ain’t with the majority
Doug Brekfaust – Yeah let’s see who the coward is you little f**king b1tch
Doug Brekfaust – Nope you’re a coward because you’re a racist piece of sh1t hiding behind a computer screen. You want to square up in person? Message me on Facebook eh?
I guess if I am a coward for posting on here then by your logic you are one too eh? Such a child!
Doug Brekfaust – More delusional nonsense. The only coward around here is you buddy
Haha, he knew it wouldn’t pass if a vote of no confidence was attached to it. It would have forced an election. Cowards move! It should now just get the votes it needs to pass and DRIPA will be suspended until the next election.
As I said that’s win too. It’s also a start to this great unwind that’s needed.
