<p><strong>IMO&lt;, the problem is NOT the amount of $ she earns,&nbsp;the problem is where that $tipend money is coming from.</strong></p>
<p>Ask yourself, If Company X donated $10,000 to your party and you recieved some percentage of those donations, would it influence you - one way or the other when Company X asks you for some political favor?</p>
<p>+ has your boss ever asked you to do something that you didnt agree with, or something that you thought wasnt perhaps the best way to do something, but you did it because, well, "they are the boss".&nbsp;</p>
<p>If you can honestly answer "no" to those questions, then perhaps you should consider running for office? :)</p>
<p>Do you believe that Christy Clark has the strong moral and ethical principals to ignore the requests of the people who are filling the coffers of her party and her own bank accounts?&nbsp;</p>
<p>Perhaps she does, I dont know Clark personally and cant offer an option, All I can judge her by is what I see of her public record in office ...&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>She campaigned on a promise of open government</strong></p>
<p>&gt; She delivered DELETED emails&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>She campaigned on a promise of thousands of good jobs in a new LNG industry,</strong> building a prosperity fund for BC's future</p>
<p>&gt; She delivered - no industry, no jobs and&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>She campaigned on a promise of "Families First"&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>&gt; She delivered, a new "Family Day" holiday ,</p>
<p>&gt; yet she is willfull ignoranant of addressing perhaps the single biggest issue facing and the is the growning housing affordablity crisis thats overwhelmed BC's only metro area and is very quickly impacting growing portion of the provinces urban areas.</p>

<div>Mason states how astute Clark is. I've seen the opposite displayed by her many times from question period at the Leg. I'm really not sure why it never receives any media attention. This past week had an excellent example that highlights my point. <span style="background-color: #ffff99;">Clark was mocking the opposition for not offering to come onside and cheer on the TPP agreement</span> (not yet signed). During the same session <span style="background-color: #ffff99;">Clark admitted that she hadn't read the agreement</span> <span style="background-color: #ff0000;">and didn't know what was in it.</span> She covered that admission by saying <span style="background-color: #ffff00;">all Free Trade Agreements are good for Canada</span>. That's what you call one very scary Premier!!!&nbsp;</div>
<div>Perhaps Mr. Mason can tell us why some things seem to be off limits when reporting on Ms. Clark. Her Teflon seems to be working well.</div>
