Sequel to a bad movie

-

Dear editor: It’s like a sequel to a really bad movie. The cast and script is much of the same money grabbing termites from yesteryear.

Remember the fudget budgets, the fast ferries, Glen Clark’s sundeck-a gate, Casinogate, mining companies and sawmills shutting down and our talented young trades people moving to Alberta for a job?

I am talking about John Horgan’s NDP government. It’s abundantly clear Horgan is on a short leash and his owner’s name is Green Party leader Andrew Weaver.

The No. 1 reason the lefty NDPs got in power by the skin of their teeth this past election is because of their appeal to the lazy swine that sold our province so they don’t have to pay a toll over the big two bridges in the Lower Mainland as they drive to their places of employment.

The Lower Mainland switched to NDP orange, to save on paying the tolls. The jokes on them as Johnny and Andy will hit them all with a new fuel tax to make up for lost bridge toll revenues and history will repeat itself as taxes and more taxes are the NDP’s way to manage.

In the budget, Carole James performs a slight of hand trick that only a socialist could be proud of and announced the MSP premiums are to be eliminated by January of next year. In reality the premiums are not gone, just merely transferre­d to the independen­t business owners of our province.

Where is the incentive to be a entreprene­ur in B.C., when the fat and well rested premier just takes from them?

Premier John promised us $10 a day childcare. I think what he really means is giving parents $10 a day per child as a way to subsidize their costs. His focus with child care seems to have shifted to creating training for more childcare workers so more parents can go to work and pay for his ridiculous half-baked economic disasters. Sound like a flashback to communist Russia to me, where the state looks after the children and the parents work for the fatherland.

In conclusion, we have an NDP government in both B.C. and Alberta. Between Rachel Notley and Horgan, they are demonstrat­ing to us how the NDP lefties can’t agree or have any vision with purpose. It’s an economical­ly dodgy situation the two “leaders” have put us in, don’t worry about that, there’s help coming from another lefty from Ottawahis name is Justin Trudeau as he rams the pipeline up John’s keester.
