Throne For Dictatorial BC Premier

And that's how the news got out: The librarians' tears told the story, while the spineless politicians stealing the people's beautiful library said nothing to the public. Your "open and accountable" government at work! But once the story was out, Liberal MLA Bill Barisoff -- the current Speaker and supposed "defender" of the legislature -- started his spin cycle. He called me on my cellphone Friday to "clear up any confusion" about the library. "We're not closing it down," he said. "We have to move the staff out of there to do some seismic upgrading." Trying to keep the library open during the construction would be expensive and dangerous, he said. "So once the work is done the library will re-open?" I asked him. He paused. What's even more sickening is that the NDP Opposition is apparently going along with this. It looks like they've been bought off with a promise of some marble-walled offices of their own. What gall these people have. What a shabby and deceitful plan they've concocted. Shame on all of them. msmyth@direct.ca http://tinyurl.com/2tp5ah
