This alarming $2 billion overrun on the Surrey-Langley SkyTrain is just the latest in a string of massive cost overruns under the NDP. Projects like the Surrey, Burnaby, & Richmond Hospital expansions have each blown past their budgets by over $1.1 billion. These spiraling costs are a direct result of David Eby and the NDP’s Community Ripoff Agreements, which funnel taxpayer dollars to the pockets of their hand-picked unions. At a time when British Columbians are struggling with skyrocketing costs and an affordability crisis, the NDP’s reckless mismanagement of public funds and major infrastructure projects is not just deeply concerning — it’s a threat to funding for essentials like healthcare, housing, and education. #BCpoli
