My congratulations to the Liberal party, but more importantly to the Liberal voters.
The provincial government advised residents about the termination of AirCare testing by Dec. 31, 2014.
In 2006, Microsoft mogul Bill Gates was invited to speak at a business seminar in Saudi Arabia.
Mea culpa. I have no truly honourable choice other than to admit my guilt.
It was a good analysis that "Christy Clark of all people should not take the Liberal win as an endorsement, but rather she should recognize it as a reprieve [Vote numbers need leadership, May 16 Opinion, Langley Advance]."
Along with pretty much everyone else, I thought the election last week was going to produce a result exactly the opposite of what actually happened.

Congratulations to Vicki Huntington (independent, Delta South) and Scott Hamilton (Liberal, Delta North) for their victories and the victory of democracy in Delta in Tuesday's provincial election.
Since 1991 I have voted NDP, Liberal, Green and independent. I'm not fickle; I just realize that no party platform can adequately address all of the government challenges facing B.C.
Well, I was wrong. Along with pretty much everyone else (with the exception of a small B.C. Liberal Party campaign brain trust), I thought the election this week was going to produce a result exactly the opposite of what actually happened.
The poll that came closest to calling the result right in Tuesday's provincial election was still wildly wrong. A Forum Research poll done six days before the vote showed a mere two-point gap between the Liberals and the NDP. Of course, it still had the NDP out in front, not losing by almost five per cent in the popular vote and 17 seats in the Legislature.
The pollsters, and even the New Democrats, did not take into account the advantages of incumbency, while Christy Clark's Liberals were all too cognizant of its disadvantages. The NDP took the highroad, campaigning as though victory was assured, while the Liberals made the election less about polarizing issues like the HST, but rather economic sustainability.

Who is Edward Stanbrough? A cursory look at the Green Party of B.C.'s website suggests he was the party's candidate in Coquitlam-Maillardville, but other than that, he remains mostly a mystery.
