In late 2024, BC Ferries, Premier Eby’s NDP controlled crown corporation prepares to acquire new ships. However, it does not give the traditional points for domestic bidders in the bidding process which, according to private Canadian ship builders, disqualified Canadian bidders on price: Communist state owned shipyards paying low or no wages will always win on price alone.
Canadian shipyards and their supply chains cannot compete with low wage countries that have lower employment standards, lower environmental standards and lower safety standards than Canada and BC. The most significant difference is that in BC, the wages that we pay our skilled trades workforce are substantially higher than in these other countries.

In early 2025, the FBI reveals it has intel that fentanyl components are flowing through BC’s shipping and other ports of entry from China, ultimately resulting in the drug-use deaths of Americans and Canadians. Trump puts Canada on notice to significantly increase border security or face tariffs, and offers that Canada could both avoid the tariffs and significantly increase our standard of living by becoming the US’s 51st state. Premier Eby goes on major American news networks to mock Trump while local media feigns amnesia having no recollection of BC’s drug labs including a “Super Lab” RCMP bust just months earlier.
This is a clip of the FBI Director on Joe Rogan talking about Vancouver as a port of entry (WeAreCanadaProud.)
This FBI intel makes sense given regularly reported news on BC’s drug labs. For example, again, right here in BC:
Federal Investigators take down the largest, most sophisticated drug superlab in Canada/. Royal Canadian Mounted Police . October 31, 2024
On Friday, October 25, 2024, RCMP Federal investigators conducted a series of coordinated enforcement actions across Metro Vancouver, and executed search warrants on a massive drug superlab in Falkland, BC, and associated locations in the city of Surrey, BC….[This] delivered a decisive blow to a major transnational organized crime group by dismantling the largest and most sophisticated fentanyl and methamphetamine drug superlab in Canada. The combined fentanyl and precursors seized at this facility could have amounted to over 95,500,000 potentially lethal doses of fentanyl, which have been prevented from entering our communities, or exported abroad….

Feb 27, 2025 RCMP: CBSA border services officers at the international mail and cargo processing facilities in Mississauga, ON, and Vancouver, BC, seized multiple shipments of synthetic opioids arriving from China and destined to an address in Mississauga. Officers also intercepted additional shipments intended for international export. Using various investigative techniques, the CBSA’s Greater Toronto Area Region’s Intelligence section provided the RCMP with the evidence required to obtain a search and arrest warrant.

In June 2025,Eby’s NDP controlled BC Ferries gives the ship building contract to a state owned Chinese shipyard. Premier Eby refuses to stop the contract in favour of Canadian workers despite significant backlash.
“Premier Eby says he will not ask B.C. Ferries to reconsider contract with Chinese state-owned shipyard, Vancouver Sun, June 17, 2025: The ferry provider announced last week it was giving a contract for four new ships to Weihai Shipyards, sparking concerns from province.”
This, while Canadians are “buying local” and spending $20 more on their grocery that they don’t have, effectively funding Communist China’s economy, the aggressive enemy of our freedom and democracy.
