John Rustad has joined the Conservative Party of B.C. to become the only party representative in the provincial legislature and he wasted no time making that known in Question Period Thursday afternoon in Victoria.
“The lack of health care workers is critical across my riding and across the North. I look at my communities, places like Houston, Burns Lake, Fraser Lake and Fort St. James and Vanderhoof, one doctor makes a huge differences services provided and a nurse or two makes a huge difference in whether emergency rooms are open or not across my riding.”
“They like to operate in the shadows and keep information from people so they can put spin on how they present information and the worst part is they silence MLAs, except to have them parrot what their party position is,” said Rustad. “I suspect there will be some in my riding that won’t be happy about me doing this and, unfortunately, my riding has quite a history of becoming independent or moving over to other parties,” he said. “I always thought I brought stability to this riding. I actually don’t look at it from the perspective of me leaving the party. I actually think the party left me.”
