RE: Second Municipal Dona

Clark's deck was only 10x10? The way they were talking about it in the media, I thought it must have been huge. They were saying it was worth thousands and thousands. What's it made out of, gold?

It was worth MILLIONS! A casino licence is worth MILLIONS! HELLO: MCFLY? THINK!

It wasn't about how much the deck(s) were worth (remember there were two), it was how much the pay off was (in the form of the government favour.

I can't believe anybody could defend Clark (arguably the WORST premier in BC History!)

Really! and when the truth comes out about what you liberals have been doing?? I think that title will go to your crook, that is the premier now. No wonder he has tried to stifle the freedom of information act, along with rolling back human rights.

Clark was found not to have done anything wrong, inspinificant. Think your boys will be able to say that about their influence peddling and election frauds?

Forgetting the CASINOGATE scandal altogether, which WE KNOW AS FACT CLARK RECEIVED 2 FREE DECKS (and interjected with the minister to have his friend approved for a casino licence at the NBI), Clark was THE WORST LEADER in BC HISTORY! He was a complete FAILURE!

Did you look at the link: http://cpbc.communist-party.ca

What on EARTH are you talking about??? If you are talking about that VASI and Virk, they are not elected officials, and a JUDGE has put a gag order on the information seized - not the Liberals. You obviously have no idea how the judicial system works!

SPIN....

“After passing a law making it illegal for charitable organizations to give money to political parties, the B.C. Liberals have collected more than $13,000 in donations from B.C. charities since 2002,” columnist Michael Smyth reported in Sunday’s The Province.

He was aquitted by the courts, Spinster. Say it. He went the legal system and was found to have done nothing wrong.

He was aquitted by the courts, Spinster. Your premier wasn't when he decided to get blind drunk and go cruising around a foreign country in his rental car.

you are forgetting very conveniently, that both vasi and virk were considered to be SENIOR AIDES TO THE CABINET. they weren't lackies running around spinning stuff. THEY WERE SENIOR AIDES. which means they had knowledge and power to make a few things happen. it also happens to involve drug trading and organized crime. from the ranks of the liberal party members. so don't tell me or anyone else that we don't know what we are talking about. unfortunately we do know what we are talking about, and it is a very serious issue.

be careful who your bed partners are insig, i think that all residences of bc have the right to know what is happening within the liberal party and within the legislature.

He was found "Not giulty", which isn't the same as "found to have done nothing wrong".

The court found one way, we the people found another.

You really don't need to tell me to think Insignificant . I realize the deck in that way was to equate to millions. My point was how classy Campbell was in seeing that Clark was brought down over it. Given time or interest Campbell will be caught doing the same or worse. What goes around comes around and when a premier has to cater to big business to earn his job, somewhere and soon some media hound othewr than The Priovince , Sun or Times Colonist owned by Campbell's support team will nail the creep.

A finding of "not guilty" means the crown didn't prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt. It doesn't mean the accused did nothing wrong.

RE: Second Municipal Dona

Your boy wasn't aquitted for his crime though, was he C? In fact he was convicted. So he is guilty and Clark is not guilty.

Now, nobody ever died from a deck but quite a few people have died from drunk drivers. Now I argued for Campbell when he was first charged on the basis that DUI had nothing to do with his job. Then he started messing around with BC's drunk driving laws. Oops, looks like a major conflict of interest to me.

BTW, I dug through some old invoices. An 8x10 deck (couldn't find a 10x10, sorry), PTG, $1500. Railing, PTG, $300. Closed stringer steps, $250.

Ah... but did he pay fair wages? Did he go with the union contractor? ;)


Campbell pleaded guilty to his DWI, he didn't waste everyone's time by fighting it. How many drunk drivers can say the same? He also promised never to drink again... a promise he's apparently kept, as we'd have heard about it otherwise.

How did he mess with B.C.'s drunk driving laws?
