Hell the school isn't a B.C. school and the rest of the schools in B.C. are a mess. How about Christy starts handing out $150K to each of the public schools in this province so they can get rid of the lead in the drinking water in some of these schools.<br /><br />some schools could use the $150K to feed the kids at school. there is so little money within their families they can't afford to feed their children.

Christy got the best of Horgan because he became frustrated, and if that continues in the election campaign it will be to her advantage.<br /><br />Think about that. A Premier stands in the Legislature and acts like a four-year old while disrespecting the citizens of this province on an issue that has impropriety written all over it, and they think it’s funny. Absolutely no recognition on their part that there are major unanswered questions on several levels here and that it is their job as journalists to get us the answers Christy Clark won’t give our Legislature.<br /><br />They’re trying to distract us with the process, rather than the substance of the issues, and they should both be ashamed of themselves.<br />Lewnoreply@blogger.com
