Big business has Christy Clark in their back pockets. Site C does not make sense at this time, except for those who stand to profit from it. Of course, we know how Crispy will sell it, as per usual...jobs, jobs, jobs. Her, along with the corporations, have turned BC Hydro from money makers into money losers. BC Hydro has been forced to buy power from Independent Power Producers at hugely inflated rates, just so those businesses (Crispy's buddies) can make money. BC Hydro does not need to buy power from anyone. They were doing just fine until she messed them up. She's corrupt as hell.

They should all be in jail. Pure unadulterated thievery & corruption.

That was shockingly well done.

Let's just put it out there, if you vote for the BC "Liberals" you are likely chronically inbred.  Like seven generations worth.

Vote for the Greens.  The NDP.  The Kill-The-Gays or the Nazi Party.  It doesn't matter.  If you vote for the BC Liberal's and aren't in on the take, you are a cancer to our province.

the trick right now is to figure out if the greens are a real contender or not.

John Horgan and his crew are starting to look Glen Clark greasy already with their made up facts and numbers....

if the populace wants the libs out, they need to be very careful about vote splitting in this election, or we may end up with a lib majority

In other news, interesting observations being made that the Greens are taking votes away from both the NDP and the Libs.

We need a reset on the Liberals, as in new blood top to bottom in a centre of right party. Painful to consider supporting the NDP or Greens but it might be time... like with the Liberals last Federal election. Ugh.

We need to clone Michael Chong and have him as premier and prime minister.

My 2 sons went to see Andrew Weaver, David Suzuki & Jonina Campbell speak Monday night at Douglas College in New West. They said Weaver has a phd & is very well spoken, classy & is a forward thinker. Weaver said education is their number one priority. Take care of that and a lot of our problems will lessen.

The libs have done a wonderful job of running BC hydro into the ground. If you ssk me its their own "fast ferries", but worse. for at least four terms now they have been stealing from hydro to "balance" their fake budgets all on the backs of rate payers. This needs to stop.

The Greens are so far behind in third they almost don't qualify as a party! Kinda' like in the U.S.
