Enjoy it while we can ! The NDP should be able to get us into double figures in less than a year !
Beat me to it Boon – lol
The real estate agents and moving companies will be very busy !
Give me a break guys! This party we have now is the WORST we ever had!
I enjoy most parties.
jonnypg…….were you in a coma during the last reign of terror by the NDP ? The problem in BC is we never elect a good government, we just kick the old one out !
Neither the NDP or the Liberals deserve to be elected, however in this two party system we have in BC, one or the other will be in power.
We need people to vote in independents, or to support the Conservatives, or the Green Party, so that the Liberals and NDP, realize that we are serious when we say we want things to be done differently.
Are people in BC smart enough to actually do something to change the Governments. Somehow I doubt it.
How about electing a benevolent ayatolla? Know one?
palapou

============================================-
Already proven to NOT be smart enough .. we rejected transferable vote alternative twice.. we don’t need to keep switching between two bad parties .. we need to change to a system that forces functional, minority coalitions (maybe take a look at New Zealand’s system)
You Liberal lovers seem to forget or ignore their past years of terror. Personally I think both the Lieberals and NDP are a bunch of screw ups.
I for one would rather go to work and complain about government then wait for an EI cheque and complain about the government…
I’m glad to see that unemployment rate so low! Lets keep it that way, folks :)
