You really have no idea what you're talking about..."farm to table" or agri tourism nets the Okanagan Valley Almost $800 million in annual revenue out of a province wide $3.4 billion Hipsters love it. So do farm and orchard owners, spin off businesses and the thousands of employees who benefit from these jobs Not to mention of course the actual cash generated from agricultural sales themselves. In other words, let the big people talk, go back to cheerleading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She holds a hole in the wall building for her office owns no property here and does not even visit here unless it's for a press release of some sort. Lie upon lie upon lie she gave people in the last election when she ran here after losing her own home riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes zero sense..... The ndp makes "zero sense". Truthfully though, I do agree with you. If someone loses their riding, leader or not they shouldn't open up a safe seat. Unfortunately it happens to much, Dave Barrett did it as well so the ndp takes advantage of this also, not to mention what just happened in Alberta. Floor crossing and switching ridings is a joke. I have said this for years, floor crossings should require a by-election. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
