If that was posted by a Liberal candidate, the Liberals clearly need a better vetting process!

Yes please! Finally
A BC Liberal government would break the monopoly ICBC has on auto insurance and tackle the age-based discrimination young drivers in B.C. face when it comes to auto insurance premiums.
Liberal Leader Andrew Wilkinson said Tuesday a Liberal government would open up auto insurance to private competition.
Yes please! Finally

LOL - what else would you expect from a party where almost no one has a real job? What a joke...ramp up spending while chopping the economic productivity of the entire province by 20%. I realize that the NDP can't do math, but the Greens really take the cake for stupid AND crazy...

I don't have a problem with ICBC. When I lived in Ontario and had private insurance my rates were through the roof.

You know if you'd simply search the forums you'd maybe come to find that many of these points you bring up, such as pro rep, have already been beaten to death.
Do a little research and learn what this type of voting has done to other places around the globe.
None of it positive in even the slightest degree, unless of course you view giving crackpots a voice as positive.

Why would anyone do that ? fptp produced Trump and Justin lol and a even bigger laugh is Boris Johnson winning .
If what i post is such a waste then i gather you reading it is what ? I myself do not counter what i find to be trivial as i dont pay it any attention

So I take it that's a no, on your actually reading through a thread to take note of links and such that don't support your views in the slightest.
Why bother to request links then if you've already made up your mind? Hypocrite!
You SJW warriors are nothing if not amusing.
