This Day In Snookland (ctd)...The AG Committee Strikes Back!

AllTheNonLegislativePoliticsThatFit

Well, well, well....

Christy Clark's latest 'wish' is not the 'Legislative Committee to Appoint An Auditor General's' command.

Cassidy Olivier, of The Province (who is banging a lot of proMedia gongs on the provincial politics beat these days), has the story (but only kinda/sorta due to all the secrecy surrounding said committee) of how no consensus was reached by the committee today to change their previous 'firing' decision. 

But here's the thing...

This time it may not be the BC Lib/Con's on the committee that is still being run, in my opinion, by a totally conflicted BC Lib/Con chairperson, who are not granting the (not)Premier's deflector-spin laden wish to give current AG John Doyle a two year contract extension.

Instead, given that Dipper and (by all accounts, totally and completely) unconflicted committee co-chair Kathy Corrigan has indicated she would rather see John Doyle appointed for a full six year second term rather than a Snookified two year running out of the pre-election clock, well....

Maybe, just maybe the NDP is doing its best to call the Ms. Clark's ridiculous bluff under what has now become, no matter how hard the wizards behind the Lib/Con curtain have tried to keep the klieg lights turned off, the full glare of the Lotuslandian media spotlight.

If so, I say good on them.

After all, it is not easy to do your job as the legislative opposition when the (not)Premier and friends refuse to actually open it.

The legislature I mean.

OK?

Meanwhile, in non-Snookland (eg. the real world, where words, deeds and actions have real consequences).....The supposedly lame duck AG, Mr. Doyle, just keeps on keeping on by announcing that he will, indeed, look into the fiasco that was, and still is, the ridiculous cost overruns of for the BC Place 'renovations'...Bob Mackin, another proMedia gong banger, has that story in BIV...
