BC votes this Tuesday “Hey there, national readers. We know we’ve been especially focused on covering the B.C. election campaign lately (even stealing our reporter Jeremy Nuttall from Ottawa!), but all of that will come to dramatic end on Tues., May 9. “Some of our big B.C. stories this week: falsehoods on the campaign trail; whether the Site C dam is needed or a vanity project; Christy Clark’s club, on her lobbyist connections and how her friends run Crown corporations; and whether the rise of the Green party could split the vote and land the BC Liberals in power again.” — Robyn Smith |
