IMO. They could certainly try rather then break their own rules they introduced. Just sayin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lafayettecrossbar Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I don't like the NYT so I'm going to assume everything in this article is drivel and untrue! Christy Clark can be as overtly corrupt as she wants, just no more NYT articles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing about the article that isn't true. Shooting the messenger doesn't do anything. BC has always been corrupt in politics. The fact that voters constantly get bullied into fear to vote a certain way is hilarious. That goes for politics in general now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too bad British Columbians are so psychologically neutered that it prevents a grassroots movement in this province to organize and overthrow the present government and it's corroded system.

Ahem. I resemble that remark. I vote for them because the opposition is just that bad, imho. Until the NDP in BC can learn that business isn't all evil people twisting their moustaches or that investment in R&D, new companies and export-based industries isn't at the expense of say teachers, there's really no choice if job creation is a priority for you. I see nothing but potential for BC to be an even more kick-ass province. There are great things going on all over BC in all kinds of industries that would be harmed under an NDP gov't. I've lived in 3 different provinces that had NDP at the time and each one was a job and industry killer. Clark really pisses me off on things like social housing, but without a strong economy you just have fewer jobs and no social housing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
