Opinion: David Eby understands he has just 18 months to earn the trust of B.C. voters
“I started getting tired of myself always being like, I disagree with that. I disagree with that. I disagree with that,” said Eby. “At a certain point, I was wanting to put forward, OK, what should we be doing? Where should we be going? What is possible?”“There’s an absolutely critical role for people to get involved in government, to participate in public bodies, trying to deliver some of those ideals in a very real way that makes a difference in community,” argues Eby.
Affordable housing, improved access to health care, safer downtowns. “A strong, clean economy that works for all British Columbians.” Plus results that people can “see and feel, and touch, and experience in their community.”“If I raise expectations and don’t meet them, and British Columbians at the end say you told us you were going to do things, you didn’t get them done, I’m willing to take that chance,” said Eby.
Eby’s well-rehearsed reply: “Are you kidding me? This is a window of time, a year and a few months to really show British Columbians what the possibility is of government to make life better for people.
