"To support families while Trump’s harmful actions cost British Columbians, David Eby’s plan will include suspending the provincial motor fuel tax by 10 cents per litre on gasoline and diesel." — bcndp.ca, retrieved 2026-10-13

"Eby noted that Donald Trump did not just start a trade war with Canada; he also launched the war in Iran that caused global oil prices to spike. Oil and gas companies then used the conflict to unfairly inflate their margins by 20 cents a litre at the expense of drivers and truckers, based on the latest data from the BC Utilities Commission. This corporate price gouging has cost British Columbians an estimated $865 million in added fuel costs, while the four largest Canadian oil companies doubled their quarterly profits to a staggering $13.3 billion. Donald Trump is now threatening a ban on diesel exports, which would cause diesel prices to skyrocket.

To support families while Trump’s harmful actions cost British Columbians, David Eby’s plan will include suspending the provincial motor fuel tax by 10 cents per litre on gasoline and diesel. The plan also includes a “price guard”, which will empower the BC Utilities Commission to enforce strict pricing rules and cap excess industry margins. Taken together, these actions will provide direct relief at the pumps – saving drivers up to 30 cents a litre and $20 per tank for an average family vehicle. Short-haul truck drivers will save as much as $116 every time they fill up a tank of diesel."

"By cleaning up the financial management at ICBC and implementing Enhanced Care, Eby saved the average driver an approximate $500 per year and froze rates for seven straight years – holding the line while premiums in Alberta have surged by 65%.

"Conservative candidate for West Vancouver-Sea to Sky, Ayla Dumais, today committed to secure up to $15 million over two years, if elected, to fund a comprehensive regional express bus pilot project spanning the Highway 99 corridor.

The funding commitment will establish the region’s first fully integrated, public bus network, directly linking transit hubs in West Vancouver to Squamish, Whistler, and Pemberton to relieve highway congestion, improve commuter safety, and connect local workers with affordable transit options.

Delivering Reliable, High-Frequency Regional Transit

The proposed $15 million commitment provides full capital and operational funding for the two-year pilot phase, ensuring robust service without placing an unfunded burden on local property taxpayers.

Key features of the proposed pilot include:

1. Seamless Lower Mainland Connection: Reliable connections between West Vancouver/Park Royal, Squamish, Whistler, and Pemberton with access to the broader Lower Mainland transit network.
2. Reliable, Corridor-Appropriate Service: A fleet and service model designed for the unique operating conditions and travel needs of the Sea-to-Sky corridor.
3. Commuter & Workforce Support: Schedules designed to better support people travelling between communities for work, education, appointments, and essential services.
4. Safety & Infrastructure Upgrades: Practical improvements to stops, passenger facilities, Park & Ride connections, transit information and other infrastructure required to support safe and reliable regional service."
