   Two well-known NDP names.  And both are stepping down.  Good.   
      
   Adrian Dix lacked the 'fire in the belly' that BC voters were looking   
   for in an NDP leader.   
   Give us a Glen Clark over an Adrian Dix anyday - especially when the foe   
   is a BC Liberal con.   
      
   Moe Sihota never regained the trust of BC voters after some very dicey   
   deals behind the scenes   
   and his 'courting of the ethnic vote' - in his case, the indo-Canadian   
   one - with tax dollars.   
      
   . . . Remembering that that is exactly what Christy Clark did with the   
   $11 million she gave to   
   the bollywood festival, just before the election.   
      
   I'm tired of seeing vital tax dollars going into bribes of various   
   ethnic groups.  Maybe it's   
   time for a new leader of the NDP to think 'general population' instead   
   of ethnic groups.  And   
   let's see some fire in that leader.  The BC Liberals are not going to   
   leave nicely . . . they're   
   going to have to be shown the door forcefully.   
      
   I like David Eby.  He reminds me a bit of Corky Evans, who would have   
   been a great steward for   
   BC during the push from environment pillagers.
