What’s happening to Canadian potash should make every Canadian absolutely furious. Our hard-working citizens, vital industries, and rich natural resources are being treated like cheap bargaining chips by foreign powers while our own leaders fail us. But watching Premier David Eby suddenly pretend he is the grand champion of Canada’s resource sector is a hollow, insulting joke. While his predecessor may have passed DRIPA, it was Eby himself who, as Attorney General, rammed through the Interpretation Amendment Act, 2021. By quietly rewriting the rules to mandate that every single provincial law must be subordinated to international declarations, he single-handedly injected toxic, unprecedented legal uncertainty across British Columbia’s entire resource sector. The consequences of his anti-development legal framework are devastatingly clear. When Nutrien looked to build a massive, new West Coast potash export facility, they took one look at the hostile regulatory minefield Eby engineered and chose Washington State instead. We lost the jobs. We lost the revenue. Now, with a sudden snap election looming and his political survival on the line, Eby desperately wants British Columbians to forget his own legislative record and believe he’s the guy standing up for Canadian resources. It is naked, cynical hypocrisy. We absolutely must fight for Canadian potash and protect our workers. But the way to do that is by aggressively building the infrastructure, pipeline capacity, and export redundancy that make our resource industries unbreakable. You cannot spend years systematically weaponizing the provincial legal system to destroy resource investment at home, and then reinvent yourself as an economic patriot the second it becomes politically convenient. British Columbians see right through the desperation, and our resource workers won't be fooled by a cynical, snap election conversion.
