Are you from BC? That's what's been happening in BC for the longest
time. In my younger years I remeber the Social Credit party going down
in ruins to the NDP I think. The Socreds are back now, they're now
know as the BC Liberal party. The BC voters have put up with their crap
for the last two elections. If they don't like a contract they tear it
up and legislate something in it's place. The voting public in BC are
going to get reactionary again I think.

There isn't a lot to vote for it seems. These guys get in power and then
say to themselves "Oh, who do we need to pay?". I think Paul Martin is
still the best leader but the Liberal Party seems to have been corrupted
somewhat. I guess after being in power for so many years they forget.
Jean Chretien is the one who should have been booted and I think this
has a lot to do with what he left behind for the Liberal Party.

 Ttyl :-),
