    Real Leadership Real Progress FOR BRITISH COLUMBIA AProven Plan For AGolden Decade PREMIER CAMPBELL and the bcliberals.com Real Leadership Real Progress TOWARDS A BRIGHTER FUTURE We’ve come a long way together over the past four years in British Columbia. Our economy is firing on all cylinders and we are leading the nation in job creation. Thanks to the leadership and commitment of British Columbians across our province, we are now entering a period of exceptional promise. The foundation for growth and opportunity is now in place. Our plan is working. We have a record surplus budget and are living within taxpayers’ means. Low and middle income British Columbians now have the lowest provincial income taxes in Canada. That’s the power of a strong economy.We are investing far more than ever before in key public services, like health and education. This election is your chance to help build on that strong foundation and ensure that B.C. never again slips backwards, or sells its future short. This is your chance to vote for a government that has the experience, vision, resolve and know-how to lead our province forward and keep our economy going strong. I ask for your support in re-electing a BC Liberal Government, to make B.C. the best it can be in the Golden Decade ahead. I invite you to read this booklet, consider it carefully, and support your local BC Liberal candidate on May 17, 2005 – for real leadership and real progress – for British Columbia. Let’s build on the momentum we’ve established and together let’s give the next generation an even brighter future.
