BC Conservatives are finally voting for a leader.

It’s been a long, drawn-out, at times dirty campaign. Often leadership races are a boon for a party. It’s a lot of attention, ideas, personalities and media for whoever emerges as leader to turn into momentum for an election.

I don’t know what you saw from this race, but the enlightening has been frightening.

The fringe elements of what was a fringe party just a couple years ago, feel quite comfortable. Even the so-called moderates have taken some extreme positions on conservative hot button issues like SOGI and Indigenous rights.

Has it been MAGAfied?

It looks like they are abandoning any pretext of being a home for centrist-right voters. But that appears to be what they want.

How about you? Email me at mjones@infonews.ca.
