The NDP did the same thing when they were in power and the Liberals are doing it now. Sleazy. Christy Clark back in the 1990's complained that the NDP was doing it and now she's doing it. Both parties are sleazy but some only want to believe that the Liberals are sleazy because they don't want to hear the truth and have their illusions destroyed. I really don't know why we can't all agree that both parties are sleazy and then take it from there.

The proponent of that action is a union leader for COPE 378. Kinda throws the whole thing into the dumpster, doesn't it?

And the other is not in power and is corrupt. So let's take it from there and disband the one not in power so people aren't scared that the one not in power will get back in power.

Well, there you have it.

The union/NDP love-in is alive and well.

Do these union stooges actually think people are too stupid to figure this stuff out (maybe NDPers are, but these rest of us)?

""The proponent is a Union Leader for COPE." Who is the 'proponent'?

What difference does that make?

Last week Christy Clark shut down the legislature early, closing off opportunities to make life better for ordinary people.

Christy Clark had a chance to fix some of the damage done by her B.C. Liberal government over the last 16 years, but she chose not to.

She chose not to close loopholes in rental laws that allow landlords to kick people out of their homes, or jack up the rent.

She chose not to take action to make life more affordable, and she did nothing for people struggling to make ends meet because they have unstable jobs with low wages.

And, despite being under RCMP investigation for B.C. Liberal fundraising practices, Christy Clark chose not to ban big money from influencing our elections.

It’s never been more clear that Christy Clark is working for her rich friends and the corporations who paid her second, $300,000 salary.

People in B.C. were working multiple jobs to make ends meet while Christy Clark was working one job and getting two salaries.

Now, we’re going into an election and people will have their chance to pick the kind of leadership they want.

Leadership for the wealthy and the well-connected – or leadership that puts people at the centre of every decision.

John Horgan's weekly email to his flock.

At least Wolfie should have given literary credit to Loser John in his post.

Notice how Loser John offers no direction as to what HE would do, only criticism of Christy Clark.

No wonder the NDP is going to lose election number 5 in a row.

RWede:
David Trapp, in 2012 was a DELEGATE with COPE - hardly what one might call a 'Kingpin."

Plaintiff David Trapp, a retired IT professional, said he approached the two lawyers, his friends, about bringing the lawsuit forward after being inundated with a government ad blitz while at home recuperating from colon cancer treatment last year.


http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/bri ... e34357789/

And now you are trying to smear David Trapp and kick him while he is down and sick just because at one time he was a member of a union. He at one time, 5 years ago was a mere delegate in his union, but is now retired and has been suffering from cancer for over a year! He is angry over the blatant, arrogant and callous misuse of taxpayer money to laud the ChristyLiberal party. No wonder.
