The Liberals have done a good job of driving rural BC into the ground.  While money is poured into essentials like stadium roofs, our roads are a disgrace.  We're not the lower mainland.  We don't need good roads to get our Acuras to the game, we need good roads to get our natural resources to market.  The only time most BCers pay attention to softwood lumber is when the US huffs and puffs, but they don't put much thought into how that wood turns from trees to softwood lumber and the infrastructure necessary to make it happen.

If there was a viable third party, I'd vote for them.  I voted for Wilson's Liberals before they were hijacked by the former Socreds.  As it is, I'll vote for the evil of 16 years ago rather than the evil of today.
