Layne in one of his better columns notes the Campbell is in a terrible spot.

The Liberals are hoping that anger is temporary and you’ll just get used to the HST.  After all, there is two and three quarter years to go in his term right?

They are in territory that the NDP were in when they were decimated at the polls.  Joy and Jenny was all there was.

What to do?  There is no winning this one. Even if Campbell steps down in disgrace,  there is nobody to step up and revitalize the party.

Like two peas in a pod. They both suck...

Then he took aim at the lack of noise from the NDP over revelations that Ida Chong was taking every single penny the legislature allows.  Her meal allowance for someone living locally, minutes away from home, shows an utter contempt for the state of the BC economy.

The fact that the NDP didn’t speak up?  Well they are two peas in a pod aren’t they?  Both exactly the same and playing from the same play book.

Voting for either one continues the insanity.

They are little more than liars, cheats and thieves.

HAVE YOU HAD ENOUGH YET?

The Main Stream Media (MSM) is at it again.

Does anybody remember the cries of foul when the NDP fudged the deficit figures so very long ago?

Well the Liberals are getting a free ride in the media and it’s being noticed by the Tyee, an online periodical with a large following.

http://thetyee.ca/Opinion/2010/07/12/FudgeBudget/

This is fiscal mismanagement at it’s worst.

Then ad to this the statements by the Finance Minister that the mailouts and ads on the radio are necessary to counter the so-called misleading statements made by Anti-HST forces around the province.

Okay Finance Minister, HOW MUCH WILL THIS COST BC???  Huggie Hansen does not know.  You’re the finance minister, a businessman, and you don’t know???

No wonder the Province of BC is teetering on insolvency.

BC Refederation suggests a forensic audit of BC’s books to find out the truth of how far the Liberals have sunk us in the hole.

Owe-lympic debt is costing us billions when Campbell promised us 6oo Million.

Trade and Convention Center was nearly a billion dollars and is largely unbooked.  A bigger white elephant than the Fast Cats.  The cost overrun on this facility dwarfed the Fast Cats by double!!

They have made contractual obligations equal to $53 Billion.

These are the fiscal giants who you elected  (if you voted for them or didn’t bother to vote).  These guys are mismanaging BC.

I am honestly afraid to promise anything based on these reports.

But what I can promise,  is an end to rule by UNCONTROLLED POLITICIANS.

Direct Democracy in the first sitting as government.

A committee of Citizens to draft a no holds barred constitution of and by the people.

Renegotiation of things federal which directly impact on the sovereignty of BC.  It’s time BC got a fair shake within Confederation.

Join BC Refederation today.  And make as large a donation as you can.  We need to get ready for the next elections.  By-elections resulting from Recalls.  And of course the next general election.

DONATE

Carole James and BC Refederation Leader Mike Summers

NDP Leader Carole James was in Vanderhoof  on June 15 and invited Mike Summers to meet with her.

Meeting was short and pleasant.

However, when asked direct questions on whether she would scrap the HST when/if she assumed power, she said the party would have to have a discussion with the people on the issue.  She would not say that she is against it.

Oh really???  Then what is she doing about this?  Can you say political opportunism?  The NDP is letting the BC Liberals self destruct, which by the way they should.

But not wanting to quash this is dishonest Ms James.

Then Ms. James was asked about getting Federal Minister of Finance Jim Flaherty to back off implementation of the HST until after the HST petition had been vetted and finally disposed of by the people.  It was suggested that using her profile, she might add weight to the letter Mike Summers wrote to Jim Flaherty on June  10th.

Instead of saying yes to the request, she said she would defer it to the Federal Wing of the NDP.

Mike has been in direct contact with Nathan Cullen whose riding has overwhelmingly supported the Anti-HST petition.  So far there has been no response from him on the issue.

On the topic of the Carbon Tax, she was asked if she would do away with it.  She said that there was discussion about it before the election and the people spoke and re-elected the Liberals.  “But I won’t keep increasing it either.”

Small consolation to people living in the north and to truckers who are hit hard with the punishing tax.

It is clear, that while Carole James is a nice lady, she will continue to tax British Columbians with taxes brought in by the Liberals.

Now more than ever, the people of BC need the BC Refederation Party.

The Liberal legacy of lies, deceit and betrayal of BC Tax Payers has taken it’s toll.

And the arrogance of Liberal leader Gordon Campbell is to blame.  The HST was the final straw as voters in Liberal held constituencies find 62% of voters would sign a recall petition.  That is overwhelming poll numbers and everything I heard when collecting signatures during the ANTI-HST Petition.

John Rustad job on the line?

John Rustad I found out, is very vulnerable to a recall.  He is not well liked, but the HST anger has pushed supporters over the edge.

The poll results along with the story are in the Vancouver Sun newspaper.

What shall we say then to those who are looking for a replacement to the Liberals?

You know that the NDP is about labour and not about democracy.  They believe, like Liberal Terry Lake, in representative democracy.

They believe that elected representatives can know better than you.

The BC Conservatives?  What about them?  They are just more of the same.  They really covet the federal Conservative vote.  They make themselves out to be the “other” choice, but are they?  No.

BC Refederation, sets itself apart from all other political parties.   We believe in representative democracy too.  We believe your MLA ought to SERVE YOU in your constituency.  We believe the job of the MLA is to take care of day to day administration of the province.

But what if you MLA’s  judgment takes a holiday, like we are seeing with the HST???  What then.  Then you the voter will have recourse.  Starting from the day the bill is passed.  There is a 100 day cooling off period where voters can decide to initiate a VOTER VETO of the bill.  The voter’s control the final process.  Intitiative if they don’t like it, and if it’s okay with them they do nothing. And, the results are binding on the government.  They have no choice.

This is NOT government by referendum.  It is CONTROL of government by referendum.

We live in an age of fast moving technology.  Information passes quickly.  What should you be bound to a system that worked in the mid 1800’s with technology as we have today.

We are literate.  They weren’t all that way then.  It’s time to change the system.

BC Refederation is the moderate, centrist alternative.

A real sign of our times.

With just 10 days left, BC Refed is making a difference in this election. Just as my BULLFIGHT analogy goes, the other politicians are still trying to manipulate the issues/cape to confuse voters. BC Refed has identified the problem and it is now, as it has always been, politicians. The people of BC have had enough of same old same old tired politics. The people of BC are being handed a choice in parties and what they are being offered. Onlt BC Refed offers the one thing people want NOW. What is that one thing? “CONTROL”. Once people of BC have absolute control of BC’s politicians, then the ‘issues’ will smooth out and life will regain some simplicity because the politicians will not go off doing anything extreme because they will “KNOW” that the citizens will claw back anything like it. I am very positive about this election. And I am proud to be associated with the people I running with.
Our candiadtes have done an absolutely stunning job considering how very little we have had to work with.
Good luck my friends. See you in the legislature, right?

Wnot so many days remaining before the next election, our winter in the north is done enough that I have scraped the junk off my face.

But in doing that, I have to wonder if BC’s political winter is done too?

People are responding to the 1-2-3 Plan of BC Refederation. It’s slow, but the people see the wisdom in it.

Mike Summers, leader

Now we only need the support of the people between now and May 13th.
