Are you better off than you were 4 years ago?

Are you better off than you were in 2022? By the numbers, B.C. isn’t.

Think of B.C.’s economy as a pie shared by everyone who lives here. In 2024, under David Eby, everyone’s slice got 1.7% smaller, a bigger drop than Canada’s. It still hasn’t grown back to where it was when he took over.

A smaller slice means:
• Smaller raises on your paycheque.
• Fewer good jobs.
• Less money for the hospitals and schools we all count on.

Now Eby wants voters to keep him on as premier. If this is his idea of a job well done, B.C. can’t afford to give him another mandate.

On October 24, vote for a government that will get B.C.’s economy growing again.
