Vancouver Island Party

Vancouver Island Party Working towards the New Canadian Province of Vancouver Island We also want improved health care. There is hope! Politics, but not as usual!

Our beloved Island’s distinct way of life is under threat from severe climate change, federal and provincial government indifference and economic, environmental and social injustices. We, our children and our grandchildren want to live in a just society with protection from the ravages of extreme climate warming such as rising sea levels, depleted resources on land and in the sea, and the lack of

stable, well paying and long-lasting jobs. Love, respect, reconciliation and trust, not fear! We can enjoy a strong, safe and sustainable economy, a healthy environment and the elimination of poverty before it is too late! Only The VanIsle Party can offer you this kind of a future. We have a plan with goals and objectives that can deliver on these promises. But we need the citizens of Vancouver Island to share our vision and work together toward its implementation before it is too late! There is urgency to our message! We need to join together to form a new province of Vancouver Island, equal to a Government for the rest of British Columbia (British Columbia Government) that will join the Canadian Confederation as its eleventh province on favourable, negotiated Provincial Terms of Confederation. These Provincial Terms of Confederation, the guiding principles and policies of the new Government of Vancouver Island, with the active involvement of its citizens, will provide the future to which we all aspire.

RESIGNATION
November 15, 2019

Dr. Robin Richardson Ph.D. has resigned as Leader of the Vancouver Island Party, effective immediately.

"I am resigning as VIP Leader in order to spend more time with my family and church, to build up my financial / estate planning and economic consulting businesses and to write my memoir book." said Dr. Richardson.

"I continue to believe that Vancouver Island would be at least 100 times better off as an independent new province of Canada rather than continue as an oft-neglected region of Canada and British Columbia."

"Vancouver Island has 17% of the population of British Columbia, but receives less than 2% of the monies coming from Ottawa and British Columbia,” observed Dr. Richardson. ‘ISLAND FIRST – PROVINCE NEXT’ should continue to be the main message," he said.

Members of the Party’s Council extend grateful thanks to both Dr. Richardson and his wife for their unwavering and thoroughly dedicated service (five years to the day) in establishing and leading the Vancouver Island Party.

May the Richardsons fare well in all of their endeavours!

Vote for Robin Richardson tomorrow January 30th in Nanaimo's By Election!

Question 3: The current NDP government is taking steps to “cool” Nanaimo’s real estate market, lowering home values in the interim. Do you support this approach? Why or why not?

Answer:

“I do not support the NDP speculation tax and, if elected your VIP MLA for Nanaimo, I would demand that it be removed in the NDP February budget or sooner from the Regional District of Nanaimo.

The NDP speculation tax is:

1. A blatant attempt by the NDP Government to take property rights away from homeowners with vacant properties and give these rights to the government.

2. A measure to force homeowners to become landlords and risk tenants destroying their property.

The speculation tax is designed to make homeowners prove that they are not speculators. It is bureaucracy at its worst! Some consultants in the BC Ministry of Finance should be fired!

The NDP Government did not have to go to this extreme to find out who has vacant property. Homeowners are viewed as “guilty until proven innocent.” This is not our legal system. It is unjust, anti-democratic and totalitarian in the extreme.

It is time that homeowners took back what belongs to us – our homes!”

Vote for Robin Richardson tomorrow January 30th in Nanaimo's By Election!

Question 2: The current approach to Nanaimo’s homelessness issue is causing much angst in the community. What made-in-Nanaimo solutions would you lobby for to address the crisis?

Answer:

“ A recent survey about the number of homeless in BC showed that Vancouver Island has a disproportionate number of homeless in BC. The VanIsle homeless (1,884) represents 24.6% of the BC homeless (7,655) whereas Vancouver Island’s population (about 800,000) is nearly 17% of the population of BC.

The Nanaimo homeless is the highest on a per capita basis than anywhere else on Vancouver Island.

The temporary housing solution to DisContent City was not well thought out by the NDP Government and previous Nanaimo City Council. It is destroying good will and property values in two neighbourhoods.

The VANISLE PROVINCE Party is a positive populist centrist provincial political party. We believe in consulting the grassroots neighbourhood associations before any decisions are made that could affect their properties and livelihoods.

One of the outcomes of my studies as an economist of various Guaranteed Annual Income (G*I) projects worldwide is that a G*I, set at the right level - say, $1,800 per person per month - as I am proposing for the City of Nanaimo, would stimulate builders to build affordable housing.

When the very poor are only getting social assistance, there is no incentive for builders to build affordable rental housing for them.”
