Ahh memories...

"...its also much important for our caucus, because we look forward to the day this house sits after May 12, 2009, when we're on those benches, and we don't want too big a mess to clean up from what you are going to do over the next four years."

Vancouver-Hastings MLA Shane Simpson in his closing statement to the house Thursday 15 September 2005 (Hansard)

How big a mess could this possibly be compared to what was left after 12 years of the NDP? Remember Bingo-gate, the Glen Clark Casino charity scandal, eight years of budget deficit prior to 2001, and among other things, a party that in the end couldn't even play nicely with itself. Oh, and of course theres always...




This $244 million "mess".

However, our Vancouver-Hastings representative would have us believe that cost overruns are the sole property of the BC Liberals.

"...but for this government (BC Liberals), it thinks nothing of adding tens of millions of dollars to cover cost overruns..."
