One more BC thread. The NDP are going to spend a lot of time figuring out what went wrong. I think Eby never found his stride as premier, and the path to leadership was where things started to go wrong. Eby wasn't used to being the bad guy, but the disqualification of Appadurai did not go over well.

From that point on, I think he had trouble trusting his instincts and pushing things through. The contrast between his time as AG, pushing through difficult reforms on files like ICBC and his timid, indecisive approach as premier to everything from DRIPA to decriminalization was remarkable.

eby drew no accountability–sometimes less, e.g. driving conflict–from the communities he built his personal political brand off. 'indecision' may be a generous explanation for lack of moral framework and attempts at self-serving preservation
