I got a great idea from gordonf.d.wilson this morning. So I acted on it.
The Honourable Mr. Steven L. Point
Lieutenant Governor

Dear Sir,
As you are undoubtedly aware, we are having a crisis of confidence in our beloved province right now.
Mr. Campbell has lost the confidence of the people and his caucus is in a state of chaos. He has made seriously flawed decisions, at the very least. Consistantly. We, the people, have spoken loud and clear our displeasure with the actions of this government. People have suffered greatly the folly of these decisions and our children will suffer them worse. We stand to lose much more of our assets if he is allowed to continue unabated.
Confidence in the RCMP is also at an all time low. There is a disconnect between the RCMP, regional forces and the people. Violence and other criminal behaviour by members has gone unpunished. The contract is being negotiated now between the RCMP and the current government.. The people are worried that the RCMP may have altered the course of their investigation of corruption in the top levels of government to secure a favourable contract. We fear they may be given that mandate from an unstable government.
Confidence in the Judiciary is at an all time low. The actions of the government to interfere with the BC Rail Corruption Trial in the appointment of the Special Prosecuter, a serious conflict of interest. In the illegal destruction of the Peoples property (email and documentary evidence). In the appointment of a Judge who acted distinctly and consistantly in favour of the Crown, who allowed serious criminal breaches by public servants to go unpunished, who banned publication without requests from council on either side. Who allowed a plea bargain and a ridiculous non punishment, just before the truth of the matter was to become appparent.
Our people suffer neglect at the hands of Gordon Campbell. We have the highest child poverty rate, the lowest minimum wage and a growing debt from poor fiscal management. This is, at least in part, from the policy of reducing corporate taxation to zero, while charging the middle income and poor disproportionately. The P3 promise was a scam to privatise our wealth. Our public BC Hydro, BC Ferries, Health and Education are at risk.
You, Sir, have the power to Recall the Legislature for an emergency fall session, so that the Loyal Opposition and the Caucus have a chance to vote in Our House on the matter of Confidence in this Government. To ask the questions that their constituents clamour for the answers to. We need someone to take a leadership role, in this Historic crisis in BC. The Premier spends our money trying to speak to the people on his television station, when he needs to speak to the peoples elected representatives in the House. Please Sir, do your duty to the people of British Columbia and Recall the Legislature immediately!
Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter,
Kim

Did that. Here’s the response I got.
Your email of October 25, 2010, addressed to the Lieutenant Governor has
been passed to me for attention and response.
While His Honour appreciates your kindness in writing to acquaint him
with your concerns, in our system of responsible government, as long as
the government retains the support of the majority of the elected
members of the Legislative Assembly, the intervention by His Honour, as
you have suggested, would be contrary to the conventions, practice and
usage of the Canadian constitution.
There is no constitutional precedent for a Lieutenant Governor or
Governor General to dismiss the government of the day on the basis of
allegation or voter dissatisfaction. You will readily understand that
the Lieutenant Governor must honour these principles. I can also assure
you the Lieutenant Governor is very aware of his prerogatives, role and
responsibilities and he will discharge those duties as he deems most
appropriate to the circumstances.
His Honour is grateful to you for writing to express your views.
Yours very truly,
Herb A. LeRoy
Private Secretary
Office of the Lieutenant Governor
Did you hear Campbell is going on Global TV this week to address his ‘fellow’ British Columbians? There’s speculation it won’t be to announce his resignation but to ask for a ‘second chance.’ The fact that he shuffled his cabinet today suggests he’s not planning to leave before he’s carried out feet first. The Lt. Gov. isn’t going to intervene. We need recalls, now. That’s the only way we’re going to get an election anytime soon. It might just be that Campbell announcing he’ll defy public opinion and stay on could be the straw that broke the camel’s back. Let’s hope so.
I suggest a complete boycott of GlobalTV. Let’s not give him the ratings, we’ll wait for the fallout…
NEW WORLD ORDER
*Roman Catholic (Jesuit) Socialists now dominate both the Liberal Democrats & Conservative Republican parties across North America, so no matter who you vote for, Roman Catholics continue to grow in political power.
*Roman Catholic (Jesuit) Socialists deceptively use the name ‘Progressive’ to identify each other in both political parties (‘Progressive’ Conservative Republicans and Liberal ‘Progressive’ Social Democrats- ie…Centre for American ‘Progress’)
Adolph Hitler was a known Fabian Roman Catholic, who went to Leonding Catholic School & used the Roman Catholic Church as a recruiting tool to build their Socialist ‘NAZI Army’ against the ‘Protestant Christian & Jewish’ Alliance in North America. He deceptively painted Roman Catholic Crosses on all his Nazi warplanes and tanks to brainwash his Nazi Youth into thinking that they were actually killing for God!!! His Roman Catholic (Jesuit) ‘Progressive’ priests were known as his Nazi ‘Brown Priests.’ Todays Roman Catholic German Pope Benedict was part of the German Nazi Youth in 1939, and was considered a Roman Catholic (Jesuit) ‘Brown Priest.’
Roman Catholic (Jesuit) Progressive Socialists are entirely focussed on destroying the remaining ‘Protestant Christian/Jewish’ Alliance that to this very day, continue to protect your rights to ‘Free Election and Free Speech.’ Even though Protestant Christians represent 53% of North Americans, they now have 0% representation in the American Supreme Court! But, Catholic Socialists only represent 24% of the population, but control 66% of the American Supreme Court!
Roman Catholic Socialists have successfully pitted Protestant North American Christians against one another, by promoting a ‘Two-Party’ system creating an ‘us & them’ mentality. Their corrupt Roman ancestors called this deceptive tactic ‘Divide and Conquer.’ History proves that countries that once waved the red Socialist flag, ALWAYS becomes dictatorships, like in Communist United Soviet Socialist Republic (Russia), China, North Korea, Venezuela and Cuba. Once you lose your freedoms provided by the ‘Protestant Christian/Jewish’ Alliance in North America, you will never get them back.
Roman Catholics want to rebuild Rome, and take back Israel by using known Communist/Socialist tactics (ie The United Nations, IMF, Harvard Law School and The World Bank)

Lest We Forget
Cheryl, I got the same reply. I countered,
Mr. LeRoy,
“as long as the government retains the support of the majority of the elected members of the Legislative Assembly, ”
I submit that we cannot know that this government retains the confidence of the majority of elected members if the House is not in Session. I submit that there is the appearance of political interference from the Highest Offices in the Province into the Judicial Process. As well as the appearance of political interference into the arms-length agencies that are supposed to remain non-partisan. Such as Elections BC. In a time of unprecedented, complex citizen’s Intitiatives. This is exactly the time to allow our Representatives to ask our questions in our House and the Premier has much to answer.
I saw this coming. There is never a point in trying to go over the head of the Premier or the Prime Minister, largly because our archane system makes their roles purly superficial. The only way to recall the legislature, in my opinioin, is mass protest and rallies. It’s the only way the government will listen. Start shutting down streets and businesses and force the government to recognize what it has done. Far too often, Campbell has just shut down the Legislature because “the agenda of the government has been met.” Bull. The agenda is driven by the public, and we the public are unsatisfied with the governments representation. More people need to take democracy into their own hands. How dare Campbell and his So-Cred Con alliance take away the only thing we have that represents us. This, despite what the courts say, is taxation without representation and I don’t know why British Columbians don’t stand up for it. If I were back home, I’d be protesting all day everyday (if I wasn’t working) to try and get some publicity to this thing. Alas, the majority of the public just doesn’t care enough….yet!
Logan. Watch. Critical mass is being reached here. We are growing in intensity. Campbell is cooked. Soon.
I can’t wait for him to be turfed but it’s a shame that we have to wait till 2013 to do it. I want to see a general strike like in the 1980′s when the Unions came together to fight the So-Cred government. I miss BC and know that when I get back in 2011 I will do my best to connect with the grassroots in my community (Okanagan-Vernon) to get some movement on the ground. Enough is enough. The corporate control of BC has to end.
Agreed.
