Advanced polling is currently underway for the leadership of the BCNDP. Members of the party are encouraged to vote in advance at the polling website. http://www.bcndp.isivote.com/. If you have a membership card, take a moment now and lets install the strongest leader we have, because we are going to need him.
I voted yesterday morning. It was easy. A confirm you are human code, a couple of clicks and a #1 beside John Horgan’s name, Confirm and your done! The satisfaction that you have participated in the lead-up to the most important Provincial election in the history of BC will be well worth the small effort.
I ask you to vote for Horgan for many reasons. Foremost in my mind are the stakes. What is at stake here friends is, quite simply, Everything. Our future self determination, our bountiful environment, our brothers the bears, eagles and fishes. The Crown of this province is tarnished and a couple of jewels are missing and the rest are loosened, but it’s not too late to recover them. The thieves haven’t gotten far and we know who they are.
I refer, of course, to our crown corporations. BC Rail. Hydro. Ferries. That’s not all of it, by any stretch. The fate of our water, our forests, our mineral wealth is at stake too. The apathy that has overcome the voting public in the last decade has allowed the corporate puppets currently at the helm to undermine the laws and regulations that ensured a long term sustainability for our people.
We must prepare ourselves for battle, the barbaric hordes (offshore corporations and foreign interests)are at the door. Now is not the time for reflection or hesitation, if you love this place anywhere near as much as I do, then now is the time for action! Our children and grandchildren depend on it, whether they understand that or not. If we fail, their future is a bleak one. Renting their inheritance, if they can afford to.
John Horgan gets all that. He and his lovely wife Ellie have raised children here too, in the public system. They live down on the ground with the rest of us, not in some gated, secure castle. They are real.
Okay, end of rant. Go. Vote.
*Update; Grant G. also wants a word with you. Here.
I too will be voting for John Horgan. He is a fine upstanding person. He is very much respected by everyone who knows him, including the opposition.
The BC people would feel so releived, with John at the helm. We woulsn’t live in the fear, of what is going on behind our back, as we do with the BC Liberals. Campbell has wreaked havoc on this province and the people. Christy Clark refuses to clean up the stench of, Campbell’s corrupt sale of the BCR. You can’t start a new approach to government, when it is still under the cloud of the, corrupt past dealings of Campbell’s Liberals. Christy also praises Campbell to the nines. Nope!!! I don’t trust her either. She is letting this province rot in the old cesspool of corruption.
I have total faith in Johns good character. He really does care about the province and the people in it. That is something the Liberals have never done. This province and the people, have been stolen from so badly, we have to pray some of wrongs done by the BC Liberals, can be undone. I would like to know, what happened to the money, from the BCR real estate? That was worth a fortune.
