The Media Trusts are confused, very confused indeed......

"Less than a year ago, few were forecasting that the B.C. New Democrats would be running slightly ahead of Gordon Campbell's ruling Liberal Party in the polls."

How could this be they wonder, when things are going so very, very well?

"It raises the prospect that a province that is leading Canada in economic growth could soon be run by New Democrats, with a policy platform that remains virtually unknown."

Again, how can this possibly be if the SS Gordo has saved us all from a Pinko-Commie Debt worse than Death?

Well, apparently UVIC political (non)scientist Norman Ruff, has the answer:

"It suggests that strong economic growth has backfired on the Liberal government, creating the perception that B.C. can afford the NDP's traditional tax-and-spend policies, he (Ruff) said."

Are these people insane?

Or is it just that they don't know any sick people, or poor people, or homeless people, or handicapped people, or underemployed people, or students, or teachers, or hospital workers, or ferry workers, or ferry builders, or ferry takers or on and on and on and on........

Oh ya, forgot.

Media mavens and Globe and Mail business page columnists don't need to use the Ferries, because their rising corporate expense accounts are built for Harbour Air.

They really should get out more.
