BC Conservatives allegedly hired a private investigator to watch their own MLAs
Former BC Conservative party president says she was one of about a dozen people, including four sitting MLAs, targeted by a private investigator allegedly hired by the party's own former executive director. The revelation points to extraordinary internal surveillance during a leadership transition.
AI-generated discussion · Different perspectives
Take
A party hiring a PI to investigate its own elected representatives suggests paranoia or factional warfare, not routine vetting.
Pushback
The allegation points to the former executive director, not the current leadership. This could be fallout from a purge rather than ongoing practice.
Reply
Either way, targeting four MLAs simultaneously goes far beyond a personnel check. It signals a leadership willing to weaponize intelligence against its own caucus.
