Can you believe the chaotic state of politics in BC?
First you have the NDP that occupies centre left which is as it should be, then you have the Conservatives on the right which is also as it should be, then you have the BC Liberals on the right of right which is about as far from the real Liberals historical place in the political spectrum as you can get.
Maple Ridge for example has a so called Liberal MLA Mark Dalton that was far to Conservative for even the Conservative party, now Christy Clark wants to replace him with a federal Conservative Terry Becker, which undoubtedly would be a small step in the right direction at least.
How can you believe anything the BC Lieberals say when even their brand is a lie.
The BC lieberals should for the sake of everybody in the middle of the political spectrum at least change their name to something more in line with their true nature ( pick one), then maybe a legitimate centrist party could emerge for those of us who are literally out in the cold at this time in history.
For all intents and purposes the provincial Liberal brand is ruined as far as a centre, center-right political vehicle and will be for at least the next few decades, something is desperately needed to fill that political vacuum, and give BC voters a clear honest choice for which party they mark their X on.
Looking back it was a sad day for the Liberal brand and centrists like myself when Gordon Campbell deposed Gordon Wilson as the Liberal leader.
