Speaking of #ChristyClarkDrivingSchool (and recycling)

Clearly, she learned her lessons well. Just like the Zalm, she's going to turn BC over to the tender mercies of the No Damn Prosperity Party. Heaven help us.

Celebrate Diversity! Christy's Punjabi Pandering Goes Sideways

Outgoing Premier Hockey Mom is assuring anyone who'll listen she's "shocked" that Jaspal Singh Atwal, a Sikh "warrior" (not unlike those brave warriors who blew up Air India Flight 182, one supposes) with attempted murder on his rap sheet, was an honored, invited guest at the Budget Speech last week.

Christy of course is a Paul Martin Fed Fiberal, whose ties to such charming groups as the Tamil Tigers have been well documented. In short, they'll do a deal with any devil for a vote or two.

Nice try, Christy, but that brown stuff on your shoe really doesn't smell like chocolate ice cream from here.

Alex G. Tsakumis has the 411 on this.

And I'll Have the Sweet and Sour Earmuffs, Please ...

Karen So is smart and Chinese. Christy Clark isn't.

My spies tell me outgoing Premier Christy provided a laff at Saturday's S.U.C.C.E.S.S gala. Digging in to her usual combo for one of hubris and duh, Herself decided to further suck up to the audience (whom she reminded of the $15 million in taxpayers' dough she's shoveled their way) and show off her Cantonese too.
Apparently attempting to say "The Liberal Party cuts taxes", this daft girl (as my Gran would have styled her) managed to inform them that "the Liberal Party is pretty bad".

Come to think of it, maybe its English that Christy should avoid speaking after all. She's not nearly so truthful as she is in Cantonese.

Open Government, huh?

I knew that rang a bell.



And what do you know? Count Iggy in Ottawa has been making the same "open government" noises as Christy*.
Pure coincidence, no doubt.

If you missed Christy Clark's epic fail on Global BC's News Hour on Wednesday, it starts at the 27 minute mark here: http://www.globaltvbc.com/video/index.html?releasePID=kTEy0ztIEtrXGeDpaWPCPW1MUkDnKcYo

And in case you've missed it, the documents Global's Marisa Thomas refers to in the clip, which contradict Christy's version of her role in the sale of BC Rail, are laid out at the blog of the courageous Alex G . Tsakumis, who is doing the vital but dangerous (gets you threatened, makes you unpopular) work the sunset media don't have the sack for.

Methinks She Doth Protesteth Too Much

Former Gordie Campbell Cabinet Minister, liberal party du canerduh apparatchik, and erstwhile CKNW show host Christy Clark seems more and more desperate to avoid a full public inquiry into the sale of BC Rail, the stench from which rivals the raw sewage Victoria dumps into the saltchuck. BC Rail was of course, sold off (like so much of BC) by Gordie and his crew, during Christy's time aboard.
In the unlikely event you're beginning to suspect Christy's leveling with us on all this, then you clearly haven't been following the Basi Files series on the (highly recommended) blog of the courageous Alex G. Tsakumis. Here's the latest installment - Chapter X: A Done Deal. The earlier posts are in his Archives.
Read it all and then start demanding a full public inquiry; hell, let's get out and march in the streets.

BC-STV Debate Made Real Simple

Backroom boys like these don't want you to vote yes.

Need more? Check out Christy Clark, of all people, on STV. Yes, that Christy, the one I've so excoriated so often. Whether it was a visit from three ghosts one night or, as she says, listening to vox populi, Christy's seen the light.
Note especially her mea cupla for her previous opposition to BC-STV,

Then go vote YES on Tuesday.

Another Uncomfortable Question for CKNW

How can the business partner and spouse of a top drawer Liberal Party apparatchik possibly provide her listener with objective, disinterested coverage of that party?
