How old are you? No one is ever done like dinner, everything is temporary. In 2001 the NDP was done like dinner with only two seats. The Liberals do need a major rebuild but their problem is more one of trust than ideology.

Don't get over excited by a term wilbur. Maybe the B.C. Libs can make a comeback and maybe they will have to try to form a more acceptable coalition of the right again, under a new label? In any case I would suggest that the right as represented by the Libs in B.C. is going to have to pull in their horns and modify their agenda so it's more acceptable to citizens of the 21st. century.
I've asked you and others many times to at least try to state the agenda of a modern rightist party and I've received nothing.

I think the Greens have a future. Weaver quitting was a real positive for them as he must have been a bitter man to stab is former caucus in the back and support Horgan.

Why would you think the Greens have a future? The green philosophy has a future obviously but the Greens are too narrow on everything else to be considered as a prospect for government.

The NDP already own the Greens' prospective agenda, and they also at least partly own the environmental issues of the Greens. Not to suggest they aren't good people with the right views on the important environmental issues, but just to say their agenda is taken and they're treading water.

As an aside, issues over fossil fuels need a nuanced approach in the 21st. century and the Greens can't be that. That makes them too far ahead of the people of the privince.
