Canceled carbon tax. Dismantled the climate action secretariat. Supported expansion of LNG. Proposed removing provincial gas taxes that fund services and transit. Proposed spending tax money to keep ICBC cheap for more driving. — No wonder people stayed home.

One of my big frustrations with David Eby is he cancelled a highly effective, partially revenue neutral carbon tax just because the feds did so (Québec didn’t), leaving a big hole in our provincial finances, only to be annihilated in an unnecessary election 1.5 years later. Excellent legacy.
