Victor Scours the Streets, Searching in Vain for a Politician with Character and Substance

We have 2 high profile politicians in BC who gained elected office on the guilt vote. Both are hopelessly over their heads. I'm sorry, we have to confront this.


The first is outgoing Vancouver Mayor, Sam Sullivan. Let's face it. Sam was elected because Vancouverites, under the illusion that the entire world monitors Vancouver politics, wanted to make a statement to the world by electing a silly man in a wheelchair. The world doesn't care.

The other, is of course, Wally Oppal. This is a man who was born here, who was favoured with a wonderful education all the way to law school, but still pimps himself out as an Indo-Canadian, as though he arrived from the Punjab and picked cranberries. The man is as dumb as a sack of hammers. I know a number of real Indo-Canadian people who don't rely on ethnic leverage to succeed.

We have a Merritt Festival in Merritt BC.We need a merit festival in politics.

"We have a Merritt Festival in Merritt BC.We need a merit festival in politics". Well put David, in a ONE sentence you spoke volumes! Heard Wally Offal talking about the Street racing tragedy yesterday on the airwaves. He was crying crocodile tears, lamenting that the Victims were returning from a wedding. They were not. He said that the Perp's car is in a Shop being repaired somewhere. It is not. It was UPSIDE DOWN in the street. His glibness gives a bad name to crocodiles. Gary.

Wally Awful is a terrible Attorney General and province is suffering for it. At a time where a strong and independent Attorney General is needed, we get 'slick' Wally, it just furthers embarrasses the province.

Sam (the Unwise) Sullivan is/was just a peanut, using his wheelchair as an election tool.

But here is the real issue David, the world doesn't give a damn about Vancouver, its politicos, SkyTrain or what have you. Find another rotting foot in a shoe and we will get world attention. for the rest, no one cares.
