Seems they were sitting in a local restaurant before meeting with me then going to a Area (constituency) Meeting. They were discussing the initiative and were overheard by some of the patrons there. Within two minutes they had about 15 unsolicited signatures. Not bad.<br />Anyway I got a kit that can be used this Saturday from 10 till 2 at the Cariboo Mall.<br />As more information comes from Elections BC they (the organizers) will update me. I have not heard about crosschecking with a voters list as yet. But we do have a system whereby people who want to volunteer to canvass can sign up and the paperwork will be sent to the area organizer to be forwarded to Bill Van der Zalm for signing thence to elections BC. This is in addition to those who have already signed up, like myself.There is also a system for submitting the sheets, But as I said I have not been informed of getting any voters list. That list is super confidential and I would assume there are scrutineers who could crosscheck it. You have to be sworn in to see that list.<br />I'm going to post something on my blog at http://howbadtherecord.blogspot.com but probably not until tomorrow. I should have more information by then.Gary Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10640964040603349900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-55079947553096594182010-04-08T19:59:56.450-07:002010-04-08T19:59:56.450-07:00Genuine.

At the "Golden Spike ...Another Crusty story... At the "Golden Spike Days" in Port Moody a few years ago. There were many tents, food, info, banks, Hydro and other groups, etc. There were two of interest, Crusty's tent and a women's group. They talked about women's rights, help centres, their rights under the law, and for me fair-trade products, and where they come from and where you can purchase them. Well Crusty finally showed up and sneered at the other tent, which by the way had paid, like everyone else money to be there. She talked with her handler Tony, he in turn talked to a fellow named Gene V. , and to much outrage he asked the women's group to leave the following day! Their logic, "They did not show a balance" LOL, and Crusty did? What crap. Only a lieberal toadie such a Gene V, would do such an underhanded maneuver. That was the last time I attended Golden Spike Days, until Gene V. stepped down form the post of prez. A normal lieberal method..."If I can't win, cheat".

They are so far behind that we should be allowed to change the last day of the campaign to however many days late EBC is....Here we go again, there's just too many people who don't have the petition. I too had received no info so after several calls yesterday and today I finally was contacted by an organizer in my Surrey/White Rock riding and there is a meeting at her place on Tuesday night. She has the cards but still NO PETITIONS. Grant, I would like to take a copy of your HST posts and suggest we print some out to leave when we do the sign-ups. I gave the organizer your website and she is very interested and will suggest she bring up your site on Tuesday. Also good news, Vander Zalm will be here at the Star of the Sea on Friday April 9, doors open 6:30, starts at 7:30 for anyone here who is interested. I will bring up this concern of under-staffing Elections B.C.(purposely)?? We all know Campbell and the guppy will ignore the voters but the humiliation should send them both into a raging fit, YES!

I don't know if she is a plant or just another of many that have no clue of what is happening in this province. Sadly I think it is the latter. The PST has not yet been repealed by the provincial government and won't be until the BC Liberal government invokes closure on the subject assuming the NDP fights it to the bitter end. The scary thing is that there will be some less informed listeners that will think this caller was correct. Christy should have corrected her instead of giving us a recap of how many callers disagreed with her.<br /><br />I personally think that the Zalm will get the necessary number of signatures to get to the next level, but I suspect our egomaniac of a premier will continue to ignore the will of the people.<br /><br />Maybe in the end the best we can hope for is to expose how undemocratic our supposed democracy really is.<br /><br />CamCrankypantsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-76049507395767243502010-04-07T21:48:16.174-07:002010-04-07T21:48:16.174-07:00when the people of BC want something done they hav...when the people of BC want something done they have to do it themselves, government thinks they made a safety net for themselves of just how accountable they willing to be. when i was living in New West i had to chance to sign a petition to save a hospital in our city. everyone but our liberal MLA were behind the campaign to save the hospital, joyce murrey even wrote a letter that was puplished in the local weekly paper saying she had to do support her governments decision. within a few months the the Mayor of New West presented Joyce with more than enough signatures to make MRS. Murrey do a flip/flop on the issue making her a born again believer in the power of democracy and opened Campbell's eyes to the fact that one of his mighty could be fallen if thats what the people wanted. anyways thanks for another great article and i always get a good laugh when you bring up the mouthpiece crusty clark.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-85535168293903137912010-04-07T20:27:59.470-07:002010-04-07T20:27:59.470-07:00Further to the Crusty Clark saga...
My wife penne...Further to the Crusty Clark saga...<br /><br />My wife penned a poem about Crusty. Years ago. It still rings true.<br /><br />A little holiday poem...<br /><br /><br />Every Liberal in town liked Christy a lot, <br />But the parents of children with needs, they did not.<br />They hated her tactics, her false speaking ways. <br />Now don't ask me why, for no one can say,<br />But, it might be her leaning too far to the right, Or it might be they found, she's really not bright, <br />But I think the most likely reason of all,<br />May be that her heart was two sizes too small.<br />But, whatever the reason, her heart or her brain,<br />They felt she had chucked all their kids down the drain, <br />They'd go to their meetings, their workshops and more,<br />To get their kid's rights and their funding restored.<br />"I must stop those voices" Christy said with a smirk, <br />Then she concocted a plan she though just might work.<br />She talked to her pal, BC's Gaming Guru,<br />And plotted a plan that was so foul to do, <br />A policy review, in the nick of time, <br />Would leave the charities without one thin dime. <br />"We'll take all their funding, their programs and staff, and we'll leave them to ponder our new baffle gaff."<br />"So," Christy thought, "that will silence the rabble."<br />"More choice! More flexibility!" she continued her babble, But Christy forgot, (we knew that she would), One thing that the parents of those kids understood,<br />You can take away funding and programs and staff,<br />But those parents are determined to have the last laugh.<br />They have a power that's too great to defeat<br />The power of love for their kids can't be beat<br />Nothing will silence them, no, nothing at all, <br />Those voices will ring and they will stand tall<br />To ensure that each child in a school will be served and the rights of their children are met and preserved. <br />So, be warned Ms Christy, of those parents and friends<br />Who see the real purpose of your plans in the end,<br />Pay attention to those that cry up to your towers,<br />Those parents are stronger than your political powers.<br /><br />Merry merry!<br /><br /><br />Kam LeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-36328047064675467172010-04-07T20:11:13.473-07:002010-04-07T20:11:13.473-07:00Very welcome.
