| Laurie Throness seeking Liberal nod |
You have to enjoy the politcal wisdom of someone who has been there ... here are the comments of former MP Jim Hart with regards to the announcement of Laurie Thrones seeking the Liberal nomination for Chilliwack-Hope
Congratulations to Laurie Throness for stepping up for the
BC Liberal Party in Chilliwack.
Laurie is not a small fry when it comes to
politics, but he might have bitten off more than he can chew when he calls the
actions and policy of the BC Liberal’s as “conservative friendly”. As a rule, conservatives believe in smaller government,
lower taxes, deficit and debt reduction
and a strong criminal justice system.
I
defy Mr. Throness to show the voting public where he sees “conservative
friendly” policy in the BC Liberal Party history since taking office in 2001.
The Liberals have increased taxes and made government bigger. British
Columbians are still suffering under the HST and the uncertainty caused by
Liberal mismanagement on taxation and the economy. Maybe it is the reckless
measures such as the carbon tax, and the new 2 cent per litre Lower Mainland
gas tax that punish British Columbians every day that Mr. Throness believes to
be “conservative friendly?”
