Vaughn Palmer: Premiers past and present deserve a cut of the credit for LNG projects (opens the original)
Read excerpt
VICTORIA — NDP Leader David Eby was wearing his premier’s hat Tuesday to mark the best day of an election campaign that has so far not gone as well as he hoped. “What a day for B.C., what a day for our country,” said Eby, as he celebrated the green-lighting of Phase 2 multi-billion LNG Canada project. “This is a very big deal indeed,” he declared — and who could disagree? Not Lorne Doerkson. “I am so thrilled that the federal government has pushed through on this,” said the B.C. Conservative lea

Read excerpt
VICTORIA — Caroline Elliott, who finished a close second in the B.C. Conservative leadership race, has secured the nomination in one of the party’s safest seats, West Vancouver-Capilano. Making way for Elliott is Lynne Block, the incumbent Conservative MLA for the West Van seat.

Read excerpt
VICTORIA — B.C. Conservative leader Lorne Doerkson lost no time this week addressing Premier David Eby’s charge that he and his party were supporting U.S. President Donald Trump. “I’ll tell you right now, Trump is an absolute bully,” Doerkson declared Tuesday in answer to a question about Eby’s repeated insinuations during his news conference earlier in the day. “I want to be crystal clear on this point,” the Conservative leader continued. “We will never, ever, be the 51st state, under my watch.
