  1. He can recant all he wants. His line of thinking is out in the open for all to see now. Rustad is not someone you want in government during the recovery from a pandemic, just as his former party was not fit to lead during it.

  2. *I've never voted Conservative & never plan to.
    That said, I agree with Rustad, on this specific issue. Eby needs to step up & help #BCFruitGrowers & stop ignoring the #FruitFarmers - they've been suffering without help from #BCgovernment.*

    #JohnRustad has reached out to #BCPremier #DavidEby asking to join forces to find a #NonPartisan solution to the #crisis that has befallen #FruitGrowers in the #BritishColumbia following the abrupt shutdown of the #BCTreeFruit #cooperative.

    In a letter sent to #VictoriaBC on Thursday, the Conservative leader called on his #BCNDP counterpart to rise above politics and work with him to ensure growers do not suffer in the short or long term.

    The #BCTreeFruitsCoOp announced last month that it would be ceasing operations after nearly nine decades in business. The board of directors decided that as a result of "extremely low estimated fruit volumes and difficult marketing conditions," stakeholders would likely not receive adequate returns.
