So whose throne are they using this time?

We have a broken democracy when we pay a full time salary to MLA’s to not be in the legislature for 9 months holding the government to account.

Things like the BCRail scandal payouts, the new big brother ID cards, the bridge fiasco, the Gateway pipeline issue, and many many more issues where the BC government has no accountability.

Gus, I understand they are using the one in Crispy’s washroom in Victoria.

speaking of big brother id cards. If you lose you license do you also lose your health care?? Stupid ideas are running rampant these days. Trust the liberals to plan that one.

Can’t wait for the libs to spew their election goodies. BC taxpayers can not afford to leave these people in charge of the cookie jar for another 4 years.
