And smyth is surely one of the worst. A sold-out scribbler for the party. These people are employed because they're comprised to such an extent that they'll do as they're told. Hell, ya', he's paid off to go easy and divert. He wouldn't last log acting as a real watchdog and looking out for the public. Many better than ole' smitty toil in obscurity while the political conversation of this province withers from lack of solid media.<br /><br />No doubt he's also a member the media wing at the local lodge. He's of that society with secrets, and a asset to that all-but secret society. No, brother smitty couldn't tell the truth in print even if his soul depended on it. He's taken too many backhanders and pledged himself for another cause.<br /><br />But when the abuses stretch from the government, to the media, onto the police and beyond to the judiciary, so completely that they allow for no way to right things, it is then you shall know the time to rise has been engaged.<br /><br />May you all have a Merry Christmas.<br />And let's hope there can be peace on the earth; and that all men show good will toward one another (for at least this one day of the year:-)<br /><br />Cheers Jonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-60466906533606561842015-12-22T18:22:43.460-08:002015-12-22T18:22:43.460-08:00BC Total provincial debt growing by over $2 billio...BC Total provincial debt growing by over $2 billion a year, most years, see Table A13 p. 60:<br /><br />http://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/british-columbians-and-our-governments/about-the-bc-government/bc-budget/quarterly-reports/2015-q1-report.pdfHughnoreply@blogger.com
