Speaking in Cranbrook a few days ago Premier Campbell commented that although some people are critical of the Olympics most are supportive.
He just doesn’t get it.
The majority of people in BC are not critical of the games what they are critical of is the Government’s extravagant Olympic related spending which has driven this province into massive debt and the arbitrary imposition of yet more taxes through the HST to pay that debt.
