The debate organizer said "asking for sponsorship from candidates is reasonable because he believes the candidates got exposure." This is not how all candidates meetings work. #Richmond #BCpoli

What’s going on over in Richmond? When did debate organizers begin to ask candidates for fees so they can participate in civic election debates? #bcpoli #vanpoli
People have asked me why I wasn’t at this debate. The truth is the organizer asked for thousands of dollars in exchange for my participation. I declined, because democracy is not for sale. #richmondbc #bcpoli

Wow! I have many years of experience organizing debates, helping candidates prepare, and even standing on the stage myself. This is undemocratic. Everyone who participated should disclose how much they paid to take part in this debate. #RichmondBC voters deserve to know. #BCpoli

WOWZA!
#exclusive stunning incident. Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie grabs our camera and pushes it to ground after refusing questions about a secret junket we exposed on Monday. We’ll have video of the confrontation tonight at 6 @GlobalBC @jarmstrongbc @richardzussman @keithbaldrey

Amalgamation anyone?
NEW: Today’s @MetroVancouver meeting - with cost savings on the agenda - cost taxpayers more than 20-thousand dollars. (39 directors x $534 stipend each = $20,826) Nothing decided - except that there will be more meetings. More @GlobalBC at 5 & 6. @CUrquhartGlobal #bcpoli

Half the people I showed this to thought I was a huge nerd, the other half thought this was cool. Here is my turkey dinner cheat sheet. Merry Christmas!

Ever since I tweeted in support of @electionsbc, someone has impersonated me by emailing horrific messages to people using my name and my work email address. #bcpoli
For anyone doubting the results from @ElectionsBC - get off twitter and talk to anyone one of us who have scrutineered or worked an election. The process is robust with lots of witnesses. Don’t like the outcome? Get back to work and earn more votes next time. #bcpoli

Civic duty accomplished! I much prefer voting when my name is not on the ballot, but I have so so much respect for all who put their lives on hold to run.

Great news on the new solar rebate program @bchydro. Can you tell me if this funding opportunity can be used in conjunction with the Federal Greener Homes loan program and how that will work?

More specifically @bchydro, if someone has already submitted an application for the Greener Homes Loan program, but their project has not started yet, will they qualify for this new rebate program?

Hey @FedExHelp, is it normal for an "overnight" shipment to take 5 nights to reach its destination?
