A huge wake up call both for the right wing BC Liberal Campbell Regime, and for the right wing BC Green Party, is coming soon in BC.
While the next general election in BC is still 8 months away, BC has to have a by-election in Surrey Panorama Ridge by November this year. And a very rude shock is waiting for the present government.
The New Democrats have chosen a popular local businessman to represent them, and he is probably going to win with one of the biggest majories ever recorded in BC history.
Leader Adrienne Carr is running for the Greens, and the last I've heard, an idiotic Surrey School Board Chair, who apparently opposes gay rights, is contesting the nomination for the Liberals.
This is a tactical error for the Greens, as when the ballots are counted and the Greens Carr's poor showing becomes apparent, it is going to severely damage the the Green's credibility, and their future possibilities in the general elections next year.
Never mind what any polls say, and what the capitalist right wing media will spout off. This will be a massive victory for the social democratic New Democrats, who will use their powerful election results in this Surrey by-election, to propel themselves to victory in the coming general elections next year.
To get a feel for what is really going on now, all you have to do is drive around the Surrey Panorama Ridge community. Every street it seems now has many snazzy new Blue and Gold New Democratic lawn signs, a sure sign of the surging support for NDP candidate Jagrup Brar.
