In one of the most stunning political comebacks of this new millennium the British Columbia NDP gained 31 seats in the legislature, emerging once again as the conscience of British Columbia and government in waiting.
The people of British Columbia sent the Gordon Campbell Liberals a message: we’re not gonna put up with your mean-spirited policies which target the poor and the vulnerable, children and the disabled, the rural areas of our province, and seniors and women across the province.
Today is a day for celebration, a day to acknowledge that British Columbians are a fair-minded people, dedicated to fairness and social justice for all. The people have spoken. Democracy reigns.
