Dallas Brodie in Sorrento

Dallas Brodie, the former B.C. Conservative MLA and current leader of the OneBC party, hosted a town hall event Tuesday evening, February 10, in Sorrento. The meeting drew significant interest, and the hall’s 200-person capacity could not accommodate everyone. Only those who had pre-registered were admitted.

The event drew attention in the days leading up to it after local Indigenous bands and left-leaning caucuses called for its cancellation, expressing disagreement with Dallas Brodie’s position on residential schools. Brodie has publicly referred to investigation reports indicating that no human remains were found at the site of the former Kamloops residential school.

Just remind you, that on May 27, 2021, Rosanne Casimir, Chief of the Tk’emlúps te Secwepemc Nation (Kamloops Indian Band registered as private company D-U-N-S Number: 204328017}, announced that ground-penetrating radar (GPR) had located the remains of 215 “missing children” in an apple orchard on the site of a former residential school. After years of mass hysteria and over $240 million has been delivered through to Indigenous bands across Canada, investigations found no evidence to support any of those claims.

Just before the meeting, approximately 70 protesters gathered outside the hall, including Indigenous participants carrying drums, banners, and signs. The signs included messages such as “No White Nationalism,” “No Fascism,” “Colonizers, There Are Real Immigrants,” “Don’t Support Genocide Denial,” and “You Don’t Audit Trauma to Prove It Exists,” among others. Some protesters wore bandanas, hats, and gloves covering their faces, a style often associated with “Antifa” groups.

The atmosphere inside the hall was markedly different. The event began with the singing of the national anthem, after which Dallas Brodie presented her political views and outlined her platform to the attendees.

Among the policy points she highlighted were tax reductions aimed at boosting the economy; repealing the implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP); creating what she described as politically neutral spaces in post-secondary institutions by removing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies and mandatory land acknowledgements; eliminating the SOGI program from schools; restricting medical assistance in dying (MAiD) to cases involving terminal illness and unbearable suffering; ending what she characterized as “reconciliation politics”; and strengthening protections for lawful firearms owners. Many of these proposals were met with strong applause from the audience.

During her remarks, Dallas Brodie stated, “Canada was not stolen; Canada was built.”

She also mentioned George Soros and his think tank organizations “pushing” international interest in the Province. She said:” We know our Province better, we can govern ourself .”

Brodie also expressed concern about the shutdown of mills in British Columbia. She questioned why Douglas fir logs are being exported to countries such as Japan rather than being processed domestically into finished lumber products.

She also expressed disappointment over the renaming of streets and geographical locations into Indigenous languages, as well as plans related to so-called “15-minute cities.”

After her presentation, the event moved into a question-and-answer period. Attendees raised concerns and asked questions on a range of topics, including the energy crisis, chemtrails, abortion policy, family law, government corruption, the influence of the World Economic Forum in British Columbia, and issues related to land confiscation, provincial law and British Columbia potential independence.

Some participants also asked about the Statute of Westminster of 1931, which they described as having made the provinces independent from the federal government and rendering federal statutes effectively null and void. Brodie responded that she had heard of the statute but was not familiar with it in detail and said she would review it more closely.

They also referenced the documentary Canada: The Illusion, describing it as educational material related to the topic.

Following the question-and-answer session, several attendees approached Brodie to speak with her individually, take photographs, and then departed as the event concluded.,

The town hall reflects her efforts to engage directly with constituents while addressing real issues facing British Columbians, critiquing the NDP government’s overall policies, and highlighting their alignment with aspects of the UN agenda.

Dallas Brodie’s town hall brought some hope and understanding to her supporters, though only time will tell how far her political movement will go. However, it will not be easy, as a subsequent town hall meeting was canceled due to difficulties in securing a rental venue, reportedly because of her political views and outspoken criticism of the current political leadership.
