Tommy, you are a vicitm of the essense of the NDP:
total cynicism of politicians.
Given your eddress, it is a bit thick though that you bash the NDP. If
you are a student, you have gained immeasureably with the NDP WRT to
tuition freezes. I hope you are enjoying the ride, on me, on you in a
few years and forever and on your grandchildren, because that is who
is going to pay for it. There is no freeze here, just deferred
taxation. And if you happen to get a good job, the government will
take most of your income (as long as the NDP are in in BC) but if you
vote the bastards out, your taxes will fall and you may even get to
live and Work in BC.
Stop whining and do something or shut up. We taxpayers are paying for
your pulpit and your cynicism does not play well here.
