Mudslinging continues as B.C. election approaches halfway mark
VANCOUVER — Leaders of British Columbia’s main political parties are continuing to take shots at each other’s election promises and past performances as the campaign nears the halfway mark.
NDP Leader John Horgan hosted a campaign rally in Vancouver on Sunday, where he told the crowd that Liberal Leader Christy Clark is working for her donors, not for the average British Columbian.
“There’s a clear choice in this election. We can continue on with a government that’s working for those who write the cheques. Or we can elect a government that’s working for you, that’s working for your communities,” he said.
Also in Vancouver on Sunday, Clark spoke to media at the starting line of the annual Sun Run, saying she’s optimistic about her party’s chances come election day on May 9.
