NDP officially takes power July 18; inner circle packs experience, bite: experts
VICTORIA — The steep political mountain facing John Horgan’s minority government in British Columbia was apparent in the key appointments he made to his inner circle of close advisers, say political observers.
Horgan’s cabinet will be sworn in at a ceremony in Victoria on July 18.
But his government started taking shape this week with the appointments of a veteran bureaucrat, a key campaign organizer and a political pit bull to the backroom team that will guide Horgan’s New Democrats in a delicately balanced arrangement with the Green party to hold power. The two parties have a one-seat advantage over the Liberals in the legislature.
Are you looking forward to the NDP taking over government in B.C.?
