BC, this is your Premier:

Last friday, BC Premier Gordon Campbell was arrested in Hawaii for drunk driving. Today he will anounce whether or not he plans to resign and what he's going to do about the charges against him. Do you think he should resign? Why or why not?

I hope so, he fucked up my province so much.

yes we know that is our premier.. hell we have known for a long time and we know what he did.. he should resign not just cause of this but because everyone hates him, he fucked over the province and needs to be assasinated.. (man, he sounds like bush)

I agree with the two of you, we should get rid of him.
Thanks to him, my collage fees are bankrupting me, and my school isn't nearly as expensive as some others.

i don't know who he is. but i hate people, so i voted yes. premier of british columbia?

i believe a Premier, is like a govener here in the U.S. (correct me if i'm wrong) in charge of a Canadian province, such as British Columbia.

exactly 100%

Well, we find out today if he's gonna resign, I hope he does, but he probably won't hake:

I just thought of something:
This is the second time in a row that a BC premier has been arrested, isn't it?
Damn, we gotta start electing better people to lead our province.

Heh cool Redhawk, where in the valley are you? I live up north in Prince George.

I live in the West, in Langley, which is actully more a part of the Lower Mainland than the Fraser Valley

and you BC asses call Ontario fucked up

hahah, you guys suck.

Brampton is only fucked up.

not as much as BC. THE WHOLE PROVINCE!

Yeah well, whaddaya gonna do?

Oh yeah Pyro, how many times have you been to BC?

Innoxx, that reminded me of Glen Foster:

damn, the second quote should say "Innoxx" not "Pyro"

I wonder why it did that eek:

Bahaha! I love that guy.

oh, and right click on the link and download the file, don't try to open the mp3 from where it's posted now (geocities), it won't work

There are a lot of clips of him on Kazaa, and I downloaded them all biggrin:

Yeah, I seen him on Just For Laughs, funny guy.

I've been to BC 3 times, all to visit my aunt who lived there three years till she moved to Ontario.

No, I don't think he should resign.

Care to eleborate?

Damnit! He's not resigning! mad:
This means he's just gonna go on screwing up our province cry:

And, yes ninty9, could you eleborate?

Not really.

All I can say is I don't see how people can judge others when do the same things. You temm me you've never driven drunk before. I bet 90% of the population has. And he got caught. Tough break for him.

No, I've never driven drunk, I don't drink.

And if any other person were to be charged with drunk driving, they would probably lose their job, why shouldn't he?

Drunk Driving = Reckless endangerment, so yah, I think he should resign. Bad for his image.

Not only is it bad for HIS image, it's bad for the province's image.

Ad I just htought of something, what are the chances of Vancouver getting the olympics if our premier has a conviction for drunk driving!!!!

I just found out a piece of "interesting" info.
BC has not had a premier serve a whole term (one election to the next) in almost 20 years, they have either been fired, resigned, or lost there position after losing a party leadership vote.

I don't think he should resign. He's human. Humans screw up. I don't think his ability to run the province is hampered by this.

However, he should be made to put a lot of his time into community service by going to schools and talking to kids about drinking & driving. He could turn a very big negative into a positive.

Here's something to consider:
What if he wasn't the premier, what if he was a school bus driver or something like that?
I bet everyone here would want to see him fired then.
So, why should we hold the leader of the province of British Columbia up to lower standards than a bus driver?

Yes, he's a fucking politician for christ's sake, he has alot of resposibility. What is with BC and political corruption?

I know, it's strange.
The fast ferries, the Glen Clark trial and now this.
Why do we keep electing corupt morons to lead our province?

because we are corrupt morons ourselves (well, I am).

*innocent look* Oh, I'm not corupt angel: , or am I mwah:

Well I was watching CNN last night(i'm hooked to that channel) he said he ain't gonna step down!

Yeah, I know, it sucks.
But, I heard a political scientist interviewed on the radio, he thinks that eventully he will have to leave officer. The political scientist said that, in his opinion, the mug shot photo will be the "last image" of his premier-ship.
