Yeah that's the same BS Trump has been trying to sell gullible Americans, while he busily scurries around ensuring the pockets of his elite billionaire buddies continue to get lined by same gullible stupid Americans.
Our NDP and Trump have a lot in common.

No, but they've been in power before
The BC Liberals had never been in power before their last horrendous reign of terror, and they will likely never be in power again........at least not under that name. The BC Conservative Party is also without a leader, so we can expect whoever wins the prize at the BC Liberal leadership convention to emerge victorious under the banner of the BC Conservatives.

usually a "reign of terror" in most peoples' mind doesn't coincide with having one of the lowest unemployment and highest growth periods in Canada. A lot of people describe the NDP period in the 1990's as a reign of terror, because those bumbling bozos destroyed a lot of the economy, hired thousands of needless employees, did a disgusting backroom deal with the BCTF that is still costing taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars, and in general were just terrible, which is why they were punted 77-2. The Liberals didn't experience this kind of punting, wonder why that is. They actually had more seats and more votes than the NDP do-dos in the last election. So after all of that, the only reason I could see calling the BC Liberals 16 years a "reign of terror" would be purely for partisan reasons, and to mislead. And that is truly awful.

I repeat, the only seismic shift you're going to see is a shift from a corporate-run government to a government of the people, for the people, and by the people.

Yet. Just wait until the first sitting and they implement their well thought out and costed policies.

Yes, this is good news from the association whose purpose is to bolster credit unions.
I'll be watching the various business sections for their careful analysis of this opinion piece, and for their own assessments of BC's fiscal health and outlook.
I expect with the upcoming budget already following the lines laid out by the previous government, we have some breathing room. Perhaps by the second sitting, James and Weaver will have made some headway with Horgan and his unruly pack. And there's hope the BCUC will work for the benefit of all British Columbians. Where there's life, there's hope.

"The upcoming budget already following the lines laid out by the previous government....." There's no way any government would 'follow' a fake budget. The NDP is about to prove that, DESPITE the BC Liberal budget, they will somehow be able to show British Columbians that all is not lost; that there's a way out of the quagmire in which the previous government left us.

Link? LOL. Just kidding. I know, I know. You don't "do" links. So I'll just have to take your statement the same way I've taken all your statements.
