Strange days indeed, I can`t help but feel very dirty this morning, we go from hated Government to illegal Government with no mandate from the people....
Before I get rolling here let`s do a little math....There were 30,000 BC Liberal members before the leadership contest, the Liberal camps claimed to have signed up 60,000 new members bringing the grand total to 90,000 members yet a mere 53,000 people voted.
Christy Clark has no mandate to Govern period, there were almost 7000 rejected memberships, that`s right folks, The BC Liberal party 2 days before the leadership vote announced quietly that over 6000 new memberships were rejected, how many soiled new memberships were missed? We also know that hundreds of people received BC Liberal memberships and pin numbers who didn`t pay or even apply to join the BC Liberal party, ....And we had a huge mailout problems with the PIN numbers, thousands of people who did join the BC Liberals didn`t receive their PIN numbers at all......We had cats signed up as new members, hockey teams that were signed illegally, we had complaints from the other BC Liberal leader camps that Christy Clark campaign team photocopied complete membership books...
Nearly 15% of the new memberships were fraud, did they really weed them all out, and...53 thousand odd votes, roughly 60% of total members voted, so what we have is.....52% of 53,000 voters elected a premier, a vote where at 7000 fake memberships were initially put forward, memberships that required $60,000.00 dollars minimum of accompanying cash.....That tells me that whether successful or not, there was a concentrated effort at membership fraud, so consider this, we now may have a premier running this Province whose campaign team engaged in membership fraud!....And, if Christy Clark won with a 70% total, even 60%, but at 52%...170 votes more votes for Falcon and he would be premier, how did the PIN numbers get lost in Canada post?...How many rural voters said the heck with voting?....If even 1100 voters were disenfranchised that would be enough to change the results, 1100 voters is 2% of the total vote.....But even more so in the rural area`s......
Because, with the weighted voting system, if in a Surrey riding there was 5000 votes, that riding is worth only 100 points, if in that riding there were 100 disenfranchised voters that accounts for but 2% or..2 points in that riding....But in a rural smaller riding, the rural riding might only have 500 members, if 100 votes were disenfranchised from a small riding that represents 10% or 10 points....There were only 54,000 thousands votes cast, there are 85 ridings, that means on a per average breakdown, there was less than 1000 voters per riding, ....85 ridings X 1000 voters = 85,000 votes, there was only 54,000 votes....So when you break it down it didn`t need more that a few votes in the rurals to go astray to change the entire outcome.
My sister who works in Surrey at a business, my sister works and runs one of those CDI type education places, on Friday past, Christy Clark`s campaign team came to their large office building and terrorized the staff, they were Gestapo like in their pursuit of up new members, dogging every employee to vote for Christy, my Sister had to threaten to call the police to get the Clark campaign team out of their office building, my sister also said to me that some of the staff gave Christy Clark`s campaign team their email addresses at work and on Saturday, the day of the leaders vote the employees at my Sister`s work place received hundreds of Emails that Saturday, non-stop emailing until my sister and the staff called the Clark campaign, emailed the Clark campaign and demanded that the email barrage be stopped!
Let me remind you folks, Gordon Campbell didn`t leave Government because he was tired and served out his time, Gordon Campbell was thrown out of Government by his own party, the party was hated for lying, cheating and stealing from the commons, Gordon Campbell was/is the most unpopular leader in a very unpopular Government and even with that, even with that...
George Abbott(bobblehead) nothing but a wet noodle, De Jong, the most incompetent Attorney General in BC History, and we have Kevin mini me Falcon, the Campbell clone, a nasty bile little man that is so hated that even BC Liberal voters hate Kevin Falcon, of all the polling done...Every poll showed that the public hated Falcon and he would be the biggest loser against the NDP.....
So what we have is a hated Government in the BC Liberals, we have Gordon Campbell who was ousted from office by his own party, thrown out, get lost, don`t come back, a despised Gordon Campbell, a despised Kevin Falcon, the public hates Colin liar Hansen, De Jong is a Attorney General buffoon, Abbott is a useless slug and we have the liar Christy cluck cluck Clark and......
And of a field of hated losers Christy Clark barely beat the second most hated man in BC Keven Falcon...Christy Clark got 52% of the vote to Falcon`s 48% of the vote.....A mere 170 more points and Falcon would be premier, a BC Liberal leader needed to garner 60% to 70% to have even the slightest mandate, at 52% Christy Clark has NO MANDATE! PERIOD!
7000 rejected illegal memberships, the vast majority of the rejected new BC Liberal memberships came from the Christy Clark camp, PIN number mail out was botched, hundreds who didn`t even register with the Liberals ended up with paid memberships and PIN numbers.
So here I was watching both Global TV and listening to CKNW......And boy oh boy were the evening events about to heat up...
On CKNW 5 minutes before the first vote result(roughly 6:00pm)....CKNW interviewed Kevin Kreuger, earlier that day Kevin Kreuger resigned as caucus whip, the reason he resigned was so he could endorse George Abbott and Kevin Falcon....It was amazing, Kevin Kreuger said, 5 minutes before the first ballot result said....
"Christy Clark came to us MLAs and asked for support, we told her we don`t support you, we don`t want you as premier or leader, we as MLAs rejected Christy Clark for leader, that`s why she has no caucus support"
Another interesting moment was with Vaughn the pawn Palmer....About 10 minutes before the first ballot results Palmer said ....
"According to the Christy Clark camp they are well north of 40% and have it in the bag in the first round"
And when the first ballot results came out Vaughn Palmer said....
"Christy Clark`s camp has been over-selling her popularity all week it seems" snip
Repeat a lie often enough until the lie becomes real, for weeks the Clark camp has been lying about her popularity, as you can see, the Christy Clark camp used Gestapo type tactics, thousands of fake memberships, lied about her popularity and even with that, she barely beat the second most hated BC Liberal in BC History Kevin Falcon...
That folks is why Christy Clark has no-mandate to be premier, a snap election must be called!
Lastly folks, we all know that Christy Clark is not very smart, she`s mouthy, combative, a compulsive liar, a cheater and a quitter and those are her good qualities, I expected Christy Clark to cheat, she comes form the arm of the Federal Liberals who stole money for sponsorship, Clark was trained in the art of Deception by her brother Bruce Clark...I expected what Clark did,she cheated enough to beat the hated Falcon....Let me be clear, it didn`t matter who won among these four candidates because, we all lose with any BC Lying Liberal..
But what really angers me, the media, the media decided early on that THEY wanted Christy clark as leader of the BC Liberals...The Vancouver Sun, Global news, CTV news, they ignored BC Rail, not one of them reported the story about the 7000 rejected memberships, not an efffing one....They ignored the smoking gun proof I had on Clark lying on her radio show, Alex G Tsakumis threw everything at Christy Clark but the kitchen sink, in fact rumour has it AGT was about to buy a sink to throw at her, the point I am making, the media, CKNW, Global,CTV, Bill Good, Pamela Martin, those are the real enemies, corporate media, they wanted Christy, they ignored the dirt and mud and failed to report critically, pandering coverage, rock star treatment with next to nothing in criticism, a pathetic and dishonest display.
So all in all....I feel Good, really good, Christy Clark will destroy the BC Liberal coalition, and if you don`t believe me, cue-up the CKNW audio vault(about 6:00 pm Saturday February 26th) and listen to what Kevin Kreuger said about Clark...Listen To Kevin Kreuger tell Christy Clark that there isn`t one BC Liberal MLA who wants her as boss or leader...
As a regular citizen, the BC Rail scandal lingered for years, hydro rates are now skyrocketing as predicted by Rafe and others, lowest minimum wage, stealth taxes, HST, tolls coming on line, ferry rates to double or more and in the last election the BC Liberals lied about a $4 billion dollar deficit, they lied about the HST, they lied about the reason they adopted the HST, Hansen and Campbell claimed they need the $1.6 billion bribe from Ottawa to avoid bigger deficits or cuts, their entire platform was a lie, the deficit wasn`t $495 million dollars maximum, it was $4 billion dollars after the election, this year they scoop nearly $1 billion dollars from ICBC reserve money, your money! And their still running deficits yet there is talk about the new Premier having a $1 billion dollar slush fund for which she use for either tax cuts or treats for the public!!!!!
When will the deception ever end, we were told that we need the $1.6 billion dollar one time chunk of transition cash to save the Province from deep hurtful cuts and here we are a year later with ICBC a little lighter in the wallet and new found $ billions for the new leader to spend....All while the BC DEBT is set to rise to $60 billion by 2013.
The lies covering their cover lies are getting so convoluted, maybe I am wrong, maybe the public are so dumb, walking around in a daze, the media, the Liberals, they rip you off and 2 months later, 6 months later who cares, blatant corruption if not crime stares the people in the face and no one cares, the HST referendum will come and go and the HST will still be here there is nothing binding, the lies will continue, for me friends, I feel as if ever since the last election there has been no Government for the citizens, only corporate Government, the deficit lie, the HST lie, the debt lie, Kash Heed hiding in the courts, a mockery BC Rail trial, a sick legal pay off, theft and rewards, the scoundrels get our railway and lawyers get rich, now a new leader chosen under a cloud of membership fraud during the term of a deposed hated now ousted Gordon Campbell, 52% of 53,000 people elected a premier and the stench just gets riper and riper.
This is going to be really fun and scary trying to bring down Christy Clark and the lying Liberals, although I suspect the party will/may disintegrate on its own.

This is off topic but related - we are already a corporatocracy. The BC Liberals have behaved criminally from the attack on the HEU and every day since and they have not once been held accountable by the courts or the media. This is the new normal. It is going to take some work:

Why were the Libs signing up members on Friday (yesterday I presume) when the membership rolls closed on the 12th?
Playing with PINS?
Clark`s team was there before the membership drive, this was an aggressive follow up, almost scaring people to vote for Clark...
And Saturday(vote day) between the several office rooms the girls received 1000s of Emails in a few hours, they had to threaten and complain to try and stop the Email barrage.
Shades of things to come, I'm afraid.
To add insult to injury - on another blog (Laila Yuile), it is reported that Crusty Clark likes the idea of catching a fart in a bottle for use later - no kidding.

It is beyond being bizzare, it is bloody unreal that someone with this intelligence, gets elected to be the new BC Liberal party leader.
I guess it sure does say a lot about the mentality and mental standing of this political party - on top of what we already know about !
Thanks

Will the RCMP be asked to investigate this, Liberal membership pin signature boondoggle? Craig James of Elections BC, had the RCMP investigate seven duplicate signatures, on the HST petition. He also sent out many, many letters. Will there be letters sent out, to threaten these people with fines, up to $10,000? Or does this also, fall under the two tiered justice system, we have here in BC? Only in BC, the more things change, the more they stay the same. What is Campbell going to do? Will he hang around and, be an adviser to the Liberal party? Or will he officially, now work for Harper? Or is he going to work for the Bilderberg Group? Those are three things, I have heard about.
The criminals who knew they needed Cluck Cluck before they fired Campbell were the corporate regime rulers who ordered Campbell to back Cluck and then rigged their 'leadership vote'.
The corporate controlled absolutely corrupt media does as they're told. Cluck had to 'win', she was the only criminal amongst all the criminals running for the leadership who was COMPLETELY involved in the B.C. Railgate corrupt sale.
Score another one for the regime. Campbell (and Harper) will continue to operate as front men for the corporate regime, the regime cannot trust Cluck the Clueless, her mouth always opens before she could put a brain in gear....far too risky.
If any LIVE general election debate is ever held and I have my doubts, a JOHN HORGAN would eat her alive. The election results will be rigged.
The entire Liberal regime leadership campaign was a charade and all the so-called candidates knew exactly how it was planned to come down.
Score another one for President Vladimir Putin and his corporate dictatorship, they are the REAL enemies.
GO HORGAN GO!
Kreuger interview is Saturday, Feb. 26 from 5 - 6 pm. Start at 52:03
Well, the HST referendum is going to be moved to June. I think that's pointless anyway. The people of BC, are in a lose, lose, situation, which ever way we look. The HST panel will be just as useless. It is said, Hansen stacked that too. How in the hell did Christy Clark win this vote? By the PIN vote, that was of course screwed up? So Jaydee says, Campbell is going to work for Harper? Not too surprised, because of their collusion on the HST, before the BC election. Hopefully, the BC people will not forget Harper's part in the HST, come Federal Election time. I just wish, the BC NDP, could have had their leadership settled before now. If we think, things were bad before, things are going to get a hell of a lot worse. I am fortunate, I can leave this province. However, I feel very badly for the people, that can't escape. BC has the highest cost of living and the lowest wages. BC is the most corrupt province in Canada. Campbell has thieved this province, to the point of, what is left to recover with? There are very few goods and services, the BC people aren't taxed on. Campbell belongs in prison for, his corrupt sale of the BCR. All the evidence coming out, also involves Christy Clark and her brother. It was so funny when, Christy and Campbell said they were exonerated from the crime. That will be the joke of the century. The media, will also be the joke of the century. Never in then this century, have the media disgraced themselves to this extent. They are, the propaganda machine, for Campbell and the Liberals.
"The election results will be rigged."
I doubt if, anyone would be surprised, if the election will be rigged. Can we trust Elections BC? Only if we are really stupid. The BC Liberal party, has been built by a litany of lies, corruption and deceit. Campbell lied twice, in two different elections, to make sure he got back into office. Cheating to win, was no problem for any of the Liberals. The ministers and the mla's, lapped it all up, and don't have a, nano bit of shame.

Well....not exactly....Harper is the tail wagging the corporate dog Campbell, and the Bilderberg/Corporate Mafia group is the tail wagging the corporate, admittedly pro-one-world government corporate dog Harper, both paid millions/billions as Rothschild (worth 500 trillion dollars, half of the entire wealth on this planet) and his Bilderbergers move in for the kill, IN MY OPINION.
'Unfortunately' in Canada only 2 provinces get to vote in federal elections, Quebec and Ontario together holding the majority of the vote. Harper, thanks to Campbell, now holds the purse strings for all our taxes, HST and income taxes. Taxes buy votes so there won't be much coming our way....again only much worse. We always get more back when there is an extreme right wing provincial government, and very, very little the few times there has been a left wing government. I did know the numbers a while back! but you can google it.
For the past couple of months I have been seriously considering selling my house before it's too late, the last thing I want to do but....better to rent and put the cash under your pillow.
Just a quibble Grant but bloggers should always quote the more accurate $113B as BC's debt - on the books ($60)+ off the books debt($53B)
Won't it be wonderful if Clark honors her promise to call an early election. That would mean to me that the best by far candidate won.
By summer we would have Premier John "Hulk" Horgan
Yeah!!!!
Ah, what to do, what to do, what to do? Can you spell Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Jordan, etc, etc, BC?
I can just see it now, if I am correct, Christy Clark will be jumping on the popular coatails New Jersey Govenor Chris Christy, (notice the similarities in the names), and Govenor Walker in Wisconsin and we will soon see her try to destroy Barganing Rights for our Unions. Hang in there Jim Sinclair. Something must be done to stop the raping of BC by these short-sighted, power-hungry puppets. Christy Clark is so easily manipulated by people from behind the scenes that we are going to need a person on the inside to keep us informed on who is pulling what string. I know this is about to get real, real bad for anybody who is a Working Stiff, Retired on a fixed income or Disabled.
Where is Dave Barrett, Alan Williams or Dan Miller when you need them?
Call me crazy but I see Crusty leading the BC Liberals as Good News. Firstly, it's been proven she's an out and out liar. Secondly, she isn't on the radio so anytime someone debates her with the truth she won't be able to filter the questions, talk over them or cut them off. Lastly she's going to fracture the BC Liberal support because that is what will happen when the greedy parasites (Corporate Backers and BC Liberals) and fight to dine off what's left of the shell of this once great Province. If the Legislature ever sits again, anyone with an ounce of brain matter should be able to reveal how shallow our "Sarah Pallin" really is because once she speaks she shows that she's her own worst enemy as she trips up on her past lies as she makes up new ones.
Jon h....EXACTLY....Falcon would have been too easy..
Now we get to see Christy Cluck Cluck renege on raising minimum wage..She is raising it but 50cents per hour..
Family day holiday will not come to be..Cluck cluck has already been told to snub the new STAT holiday before anyone starts to believe.
Bring on the election
Drug shortages are hitting pharmacies across the country, affecting everything from antibiotics to heart medications.....
Why the sudden problem? A number of factors have created a perfect storm, including manufacturing..glitches..and reduced production, and a shortage of raw materials.....
Because the problem is so widespread, there appears to be no end in sight, with shortages expected to continue for the next couple of years....
You can go online to see if your medications are among those most affected. The Canadian Pharmacists' report detailing the problem and the national top 10 drug shortages can be viewed at: images.ctv.ca/ctvlocal/britishcolumbia/pdfs/drug_shortage_ctvbc.pdf

The PIN fiasco was a big blemish on this whole excercise. Whether is was by design, or incompetence, we will never know. The only oversight that Elections BC has in the election of a leader of a political party pertains to campaign financing. Even then, it is minimal, as the parties get to establish the limits.
What really intrigues me is that the participation, 62.4% of BC Liberal Party members, actually took the time to vote. They had the convenience of being able to vote from the comfort of their home, and yet refused to. Considering the minimal effort required, the participation rate was only about 10% better than the last provincial election in 2009.
One would think that if an individual pays for the privilege of voting, that individual would make sure that they participated. Maybe the reason the voter turnout was so low is because someone else paid for those memberships.
I'm not saying this would have led to a different result, but it sure puts the way political parties conduct their membership drives during a leadership campaign in question.
