<br />📢 BC GOVERNMENT HIRING SCANDAL: NEPOTISM, CRONYISM, AND THE END OF OVERSIGHT</p>
<p>The BC government is quietly eliminating the one office that ensures hiring is fair and based on merit. Here&#8217;s what they don&#8217;t want you to know.</p>
<p>🔍 WHAT WE FOUND:</p>
<p>📊 THE NUMBERS DON&#8217;T LIE:<br />
• 2023/24: 10% of ALL government hires were marked &#8220;Merit Not Applied&#8221;<br />
• This is the HIGHEST rate since 2016<br />
• That means HUNDREDS of positions filled without proper competition</p>
<p>⚖️ THE GOVERNMENT&#8217;S RESPONSE:<br />
Instead of fixing the problem, they&#8217;re eliminating the independent oversight office.</p>
<p>The BC Public Service Agency will now police ITSELF. The same people who approved these flawed hires will now be in charge of oversight.</p>
<p>🗣️ Critics call this &#8220;the fox guarding the henhouse.&#8221;</p>
<p>❓ QUESTIONS WE&#8217;RE ASKING:<br />
&#8211; How many jobs went to friends, family members, or political donors?<br />
&#8211; Who approved these &#8220;Merit Not Applied&#8221; hires?<br />
&#8211; Why eliminate oversight instead of fixing the system?<br />
&#8211; What else are they hiding?</p>
<p>📌 This is YOUR government. YOUR tax dollars. You deserve answers.</p>
