The deceivers sold off BC Rail and much of its vast land bank with agreements they still hide. They built the Whistler Highway without tolls to benefit friendly land developers who will subdivide and sell private property along the route including the former BCR lands in Howe Sound, north of West Vancouver.
We are losing wild rivers; we are losing wilderness lands. These are stolen from future generations while we stand aside, wait and watch.

Norman, I'd really appreciate it if you refrained from referring to me as a government associate and removed that reference from your blog. I have never worked for government, nor been a member of any political party, nor was I placed at Hydro by government – I acutally got the job on my own merits. The statement is inaccurate and I'd appreciate if you removed it.

No names were removed from the original posting. A minor change made clear that the people named had been involved in government or government entities. For example, throughout its life, BC Hydro has been a direct instrument of government policy. In my view, it is appropriate to consider BC Hydro officers as public officials.
