Unite the right, unite the right, keep out those commie bastards. Oh,wait, the Liberals were already supposed to be the amalgamation of the center-right. Maybe they're losing because they turned too far right? Don't see how uniting with Cummins will help them here.

All hail our new tax and spend overlords. $25.00 minimum wage for all you in Chase, Boston Bar and Winfield - more, much more for you Toroncouverites. Cross your fingers for have not status so we can join our brethren money pit provinces and Andy will find himself in a subsidized 2500 sq ft house in North Van with Life is Good stickers all over his Geo Metro.

I'm surprised the Conservatives didn't do better. Though, it probably didn't help that one of their candidates was Clark.

Agreed. There was plenty of speculation that the BCCP would have a better showing with even the possibility of coming second.

That being said, I just don't hear enough coming out of them and Cummins looks like a freaking zombie!

Braaaaaiiiinnnnnnss!
