Q For the legislature nerds: when do the MLAs have to officially sit post-election?
Just wondering if anyone knows how long Clark has before she has to call the legislature together? I know a sitting gov't can cancel a sitting, but what are the rules right after an election? Just wondering if she was weeks or months.

thx - i just looked up the BC Constitution Act and it says they have to sit at least once every 12 months, so theoretically Clark doesn't have to call a sitting until next March.

I bring it up because I think it will be leverage in the negotiations with the Greens.
