Letter from Carole James to BC NDP members:
Quote:
Gordon Campbell has announced his resignation as premier of British Columbia.
In his nearly ten years as premier, Campbell has left a path of destruction and
misery throughout our province.
He led the charge to cut funding for schools, hospitals, and vital social services.
He has kept the minimum wage frozen for a decade, while raising his own salary.
He lied to our province about the HST.
He was a divisive leader, who pitted British Columbians against one another, rather
than uniting people to solve our common issues.
This moment is a victory for every British Columbian who has opposed nearly ten
years of the BC Liberals’ reckless agenda.
It’s a victory for every teacher and healthcare worker who has walked a picket line
to demand better funding for students and patients.
It’s a victory for every volunteer who has helped bring change at election time, or
worked to make the HST initiative a success.
It’s a victory for every British Columbian.
We all have a lot of work to do to build the province we want. But with Gordon
Campbell’s resignation, change is coming to our province.
Take a moment to join with New Democrats across the province who are celebrating the
end of Gordon Campbell.
Organize a party with your friends and family on Facebook and in your community to
celebrate this victory:

The work continues to build our strong alternative. But this is a great time for our
province.
Let’s celebrate.
