As far as the BC political scene goes the NDP will crush the Libs in the next election. Too many clueless people will vote in the NDP because they are pissed at the Liberals. I guess they forgot about Glen Clark, Mike Harcourt, Joy Macphail , Uujal Dosanj, Moe Sihota, Harry Lali, Mike Farnworth etc ruining this province in the 90's.
Yeah no Im a tea drinker and English, but i grew up in Burnaby and went to high school in Sardis ....(love hockey which makes Soccer seem so slow i swear the grass grows faster than the game.)
I have family both here and there, but there is more work here for me right now due to the demographics, even a depressed London is miles ahead of BC as far as opportunity goes in my profession, but that just a numbers game, 10 million people in an area smaller than the fraser valley will do that...
anyway
As you know I've got a soft spot for left wing politics and i wanted the NDP to do well but I ended up having to wear a paper bag there for a while....
but hey if BC does go left for a while, there is a bright side... the rest of the world is taking a left turn too, it looks like the next federal election will go liberal, the democrats got another four years in the US and Labour is going on an upswing here... Those big business interests your worried about fleeing wont find many friendly governments elsewhere either...
