Dear Editor:
Keith Baldrey is right to question whether the Liberal government, under Christy Clark has gone rogue, but I think it started before her, with Gordon Campbell, who started down this path, by marching to the orders of Stephen Harper, and as we now know he got his good-Conservative reward, by being appointed as High Commissioner to the UK.
Now Christy Clark has taken it to a whole new level by following Stephen Harper’s penchant for lying, covering up and deceiving, and now she is engaging government paid employees into destroying public documents, by deleting them.
The public has every right to see and read these documents and e-mails, yet Christy defies the Right to Information Commissioner. I think it’s time the RCMP needs to start an investigation into this issue, because any civil servant destroying public records should be charged with a criminal offence. If civil servants are threatened with prison, we’ll see just how loyal they will remain to Christy and her crooked government.
Christy seems to think she is immune from being prosecuted, which may be why her government was so eager to sign a 20-year contract with the RCMP, to provide policing services to the province, rather than B.C. having its own provincial police service, and let’s not forget the arm-twisting of municipalities, who were thinking the RCMP was too expensive, and were contemplating starting their own municipal police services.
