Hi: I am appalled by the lies and controversies your government created with Mary Ellen Turpel Lafond, when she presented the same concerns about your government actually doing very little to address the issues of children and youth in care of your so called ministry/government. To say that this report is balanced, is a slap in the face of the public that pays your wages with our taxes dollars. I follow the issues of youth and children in care and what you have done is wrong, cruel and borderline criminal. Throughout Gordon and your government we have had just lies, lies, and lies regarding this issue. On top of it you tried to make Mary Ellen Turpel Lafond look bad. We the public know better. You will be out of the premier's office and MS. Cadieux will be gone (thank God), however the next premier will have to deal with many permanent crisis created by your heartless decisions and narrow minded actions. As a member of this society I am short of words to express myself. Upon reading about this young man's death I could not help but cry. I asked myself: How could a mother, like Chris Clark, not do something vital and proper to help children and youth in care? Why she allows people on disability just 900 dollars a month? How come welfare rates are so low? Why she didn't place money on affordable housing before the election campaign? Why BC has the highest child poverty among all the provinces? You both are just heartless people and your mandarins are too. I have no respect for a government and a bureaucracy that steps on the weakest of our communities. As a mother, grandmother and great grandmother I am ashamed for you all. How dare you follow the heartless advice of your bureaucrats and the board of trades?... A lawyer friend of mine saud that if all is done properly, the whole legal system has to be disbanded and lawyers would not allow that, as well as the lower economic class has no representation or lobby. s.22 PS: My mother has a say that God takes care of heartless people. Remember Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan? Creator is watching you like all of us.

From: s.22 Sent: February 6, 2017 2:39 PM To: Yap.MLA, John ; Clark.MLA, Christy Subject: Re: Ministry of Children and Family Development - Death of Alex Gervais

As you can see, I have written several times with respect to the MCFD. Today the report of Bernard Richard came out on the death Gervais who was under the care of the MCFD at the time of his death. I am appalled at some of the facts that have come out of this report, of course the most important fact is that Alex Gervais was not receiving the care and attention that was due to him by the MCFD and the "caregiver" under who's care he was under. A second fact that concerns me greatly is the fact that his step-mother and an aunt both showed an interest in caring for him, as far as I can see, their show of interest was disregarded by the MCFD. A third fact and certainly not the last, but also one that makes me shake my head, is the amount of money the caregivers are provided to care for children who are under the MCFD's protection (and I am using the word "protection" very lightly in this case, as it certainly WAS NOT the case for Alex Gervais). Alex Gervais disclosed that he had not received enough money for food and clothes while under MCFD's care. Who determines how much money goes to a caregiver? Are there any kind of audits done by MCFD to determine how much money was used in the care of the child? Where did the money go that was provided to the caregiver of Alex Gervais? Why was there no communication by that caregiver and Alex Gervais? Why did the MCFD not know that Alex Gervais was in a hotel, severely depressed? Why was he not provided counselling for his depression? How can a child fall through the cracks when there are rules and regulations very clearly set out? He is not the first child that the MCFD failed. And her is certainly not the first and only child failed by the MCFD with Stephanie Cadieux in charge.

Due to this VERY DAMNING report, I am calling for the resignation of Stephanie Cadieux as the Minister of the MCFD. Ms. Cadieux is clearly not the right person to be in charge of such a fragile group of people. Ms. Cadieux has not taken the many reports of Mary Ellen Turpel- Lafond to heart (or action for that matter) and I have my doubts that she will take the recommendations in the Bernard Richard report to heart either. These children deserve better. They need someone looking out for them who takes the job seriously and who lobbies for them.

Ms. Cadieux and Ms. Clark are both responsible for these children. Ms. Clark has the power to appoint a Minister who understands that these children are vulnerable and that the Government owes them a higher standard of care than what they have been provided for the last 6 years. In those 6 years of Ms. Cadiuex as the Minister, Alex Gervais (and others) moved from home to home, depressed and uncared for.

Page 3 of 62 OOP-2017-70699 The lack of action by this Government is appalling. Something must be done immediately and it must start with a new Minister of MCFD and an apology from Government to the families who are affected by this tragedy and the others that have occurred in the last few years must happen.

This information is from the Government's own website. These numbers are too high:

This is your responsibility as ELECTED officials of our community and Province.

Mr. Yap,

I am writing again since yet another child in the care of the Government has taken their own life.

This is a very serious matter that the Government needs to direct more attention to immediately. What is being done? What kind of "external reviews" are underway? How many more children in the care of the Government are going to die? Are there not enough resources for these children? Is there enough direction given to the third party organizations who are providing care?

If a child was to die in the care of their parents you can be assured that there would be a rather quick investigation. Why is this investigation taking so long? Why were the recommendations by Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond not put into place to at least alleviate some of the problems under this ministry? WHAT IS BEING DONE IMMEDIATELY TO REMEDY THIS9977799

Page 5 of 62 OOP-2017-70699 This Government has an obligation to the parents of those children to keep them safe. They have been removed from their families for a reason, you as the Government are now their caregivers. They should not be dying under your watch. They should not be taking their own lives. You as the Government are aware of the resources that are available to people who have suicidal thoughts and tendencies. You as the Government should be providing those services to these children. And if there are not enough services available to them you as the Government are obligated to provide more services for them.

I don't want to hear that another child has taken their life or has died in the custody of the Government. THIS IS NOT OK. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE IMMEDIATELY. s.22

Page 6 of 62 OOP-2017-70699 Premier Clark, Mr. Yap,

It has been three weeks since I sent the email below. While I am not expecting to hear back from the Premier as she has her own riding and the entire Province to attend to, I am extremely disappointed that I have not received any kind of response from Mr. Yap, who represents my riding, who's office is in the building next door to where I live and who should be at least acknowledging correspondence received by him from to those in his riding who write to him. What a terrible disservice to those he serves, those who pay his salary, those who voted him into his office. Surely Mr. Yap, you (or your representatives) are not so busy that you cannot acknowledge correspondence received.

The delay in your response allows me to bring to your attention yet another youth who was failed by the Ministry of Children and Family Development. News of the death of s.22 has now surfaced, along with the letter from the Ministry's Lawyer touting Section 110 of the YCJA. Firstly, news of another child who died while in the care of the Ministry is deeply concerning and very sad, secondly, to have the Lawyer write a letter directed to the parents of this child and use a section of the YCJA regarding using the name of the youth who was underage is a waste of tax payer money. This child is dead, he is no longer being protected by the Ministry, he was not served in accordance with the regulations of the Child, Family and Community Service Act. The Government failed him as they have failed many in the past. How many youth have died since this Government has taken office? Too many. What has been done to rectify this situation? Has the Minister or those in her ministry implemented anything under the Ministry of Children and Family Development Development Plan?

I can do no better than to the quote the Honourable Mr. Justice Parrett in R. v. Cook. There, a child was left with parents by the Ministry of Children and Family Development eventually died after his parents left him tied to a bed for three days. While sentencing the father for his crimes, the judge went out of his way to comment on the numerous failures by the Ministry of Children and Family Development in that case to make any real investigation of a child in need of protection and who could not be located:

"I am at a loss to understand how it is that case after case similar to this has surfaced in this region over the years"

The cathecism of the approach it seems is always the same. At first, there is sound and fury at least partly fueled by the media. This is followed by the announcement either of an investigation or that problems have been fixed or are being addressed, usually by some high level official. Silence then returns until the next incident demonstrates yet again that nothing has changed".

Page 7 of 62 OOP-2017-70699 The problem is not a lack of resources at the Government level. It is a lack of political will to allocate those resources to something that does not get votes or political exposure.

Something needs to change, blaming parents, blaming lack of funding or blaming 3rd party organizations is not working. This Government cannot continue on the same path or more deaths are going to occur. Not changing something a broken system is not going to help any child in the Government's care. The system is broken, it needs to be fixed.

Premier Clark Mr. Yap,

I am very concerned to hear of the death of Alex Gervais, a teenager in the care of the Ministry of Children and Family Development. As you are well aware, this is not the first death the has befallen this Ministry this year, however this death appears to be very different from the others. It is concerning that Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond had provided her assurance that no children, particularly those in situations like Gervais's, were being placed in hotels. This very clearly was a statement that was untrue, or at least a blind statement from Ms. Turpel-Lafond as she has stated that she was told by Ministry staff that there were no children placed in hotels. Alex Gervais was reportedly in a hotel for months, when the policy of the Ministry is not to put these children in hotels unless it is an emergency situation. How does a child fall through the cracks like this? Why did Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond not know about this child and his situation? WHO IS IN CONTROL OF THIS MINISTRY? Why does Ms. Turpel-Lafond not know what is going on in this Ministry?

In an emailed statement, B.C. Minister of Children and Family Development Stephanie Cadieux wrote, "Hotels are - and should only be - used in rare occurrences and as briefly as possible... Staff have not reported to the provincial director on any other children or youth in care who are placed in hotels at this time." How can Ms. Cadieux not know that children were placed in hotels? Again I ask, WHO

Page 8 of 62 OOP-2017-70699 IS IN CONTROL OF THIS MINISTRY? Why does Ms. Cadieux, the Minister, not have control of the people working for her in this Ministry? Who do the staff report to? Themselves?

WHO IS IN CONTROL OF THIS MINISTRY? It is obvious to me that Mary Ellen Turpel- Lafond or Stephanie Cadiuex have no control of the people working in this Ministry. The staff appear to be in charge and have no fear of the consequences of their actions, lies and misguided statements.

WHO IS ACCOUNTABLE for this tragic death, and the death of the other children who were placed in the Ministry of Children and Family Development? Which of you is going to stand up and defend these children, children who have already gone through tough times? Children who need help, guidance and a chance to strive? How many more deaths or tragic accidents do we need to see before someone takes action?

It is the Government's responsibility to PROTECT the children placed in this Ministry and I am petitioning that this Government immediately look into this Ministry and how it is run before another child is lost to us.

I was stunned to see and hear you on television yesterday defending keeping Stephanie Cadieux in her position. This is the not the first time Stephanie has been in the news and not for good work either! Stephanie's Ministry of Children is a disaster and there needs to be some disruption in that ministry - as she clearly has lost control of what is going on. Reading the story of Gervais's tragic life - made worse by how the ministry shuffled him from placement to placement and social worker to social worker - just made me think how many more are going through the same thing right now due to the dysfunction and complete disconnect of this ministry from reality. And then the number of contractors that are hired by the ministry, and overpaid, and ministry staff afraid to hold the contractors to account - how has this gone on for so long, and why has it taken an audit to bring this to light - why wasn't Stephanie Cadieux on top of this - she has been in the position for 5 years now and things has NOT gotten better. Why are all these contractors being used? Why are they being paid these extraordinary fees and then not being held to account? And most, importantly, why are these children being shuffled around as they are - your ministry is supposed to be protecting them, and helping to set them up for success, not set them up to throw themselves out of windows. I would like to hear the answers to these questions.

I am respectfully submitting my recommendations and rational for some changes that could make a difference in the outcomes for kids in care. These are suggestions to create a conversations about looking outside the box to find creative ways of addressing the problems kids in care, foster parents and MCFD face. They are based on my experience working in the field for 18 years and having first hand knowledge of the challenges Alex and other foster kids face. I respectfully request you allow me to be part of the conversation and welcome you to contact me.

Respectfully, s.22

1. Specialized social workers with extensive training consistent to clients' challenges. In Alex's case the social workers did not have enough education, knowledge or skills to develop evidence based interventions for the challenges he faced. There should be social workers with specialized training (for example forensic social workers, Masters Degree level) to be the social workers for clients with severe psychological, psychiatric, gang issues etc. In an institutional setting such as hospitals a social worker is required to have a Masters degree to work with children and youth. If we are working with these individuals in the community should the education requirement not be the same? For example I know for a fact that social workers at Fraser Valley Aboriginal Child and Family Services some social workers only have a 2 year diploma. Regardless of being delegated, a 2 year diploma does not give a social worker the knowledge or skills to work in this field or provide adequate support for kids in care. 2. Youth in care should be able to have counselling of their choice. Counselling is another theme in Alex's case; he wanted access the counselling of his choosing that met his requirements of confidentiality. Counselling is difficult for preteens and adolescents, to make it worse they need to have the ability to choose a counsellor they feel comfortable with. I believe youth in care not having a choice of counsellor is in conflict with the CFCSA (sec 70, 1(a)). Youth need to have the ability, the same as others in society, to have a counsellor they feel comfortable with. Some may feel comfortable with CYMH but many don't and they should have the option who they attend to.

3. Change the wording in the CFCSA to ensure confidentiality in counselling Section 70,1(L) should be changed to privacy in conversations with counsellors as well. At this time there is nothing that ensures a youth's confidentiality with counsellors from CYMH sharing information with social workers. If CYMH does share information there needs to be a release of confidential information form signed by the client.

4. Counselling for children and youth in care should be covered by MSP. Kids in care have experienced multiple traumas and in such appropriate counselling and psychological services need to be provided to them through the lifespan. People progress at

Page 12 of 62 OOP-2017-70699 individual rates when it comes to understanding the effects of trauma on their behaviour and relationships and in such a kid in care may not develop this insight and seek counselling until later in life. At this time support for counselling ends at 19 and is only provided through CYMH. Meanwhile after the age of 19 people continue to struggle which lead to many social issues. This should be a right to all people who have been in care and not judged on a case by case basis, but be a right to all kids who were in care even temporarily.

5. Put child tax credit in trust for kids in care to aid in transition to adulthood Child tax credit needs to go to clients and held in trust until they age out. At this time MCFD gives kids in care $500 for set up costs when they transition to adulthood. Here is a radical idea, instead of putting the child tax into government general revenues, put it where it will do the most good in raising and transitioning kids in care. The current reason for the tax credit is "to help with the cost of raising young children" (BC Government), "... to help them with the cost of raising children" (Government of Canada). Part of raising children is supporting them in their transition to adulthood. In my opinion the government already has the resources to provide care and removing the tax from general revenues will not have a negative effect on the ability to provide services or run our province, but having this money available to kids in care will have a significant impact on potential success by allowing the youth to secure safe housing, providing them with the necessities (furniture, staples etc) and aid in post secondary education. This can easily be facilitated by having money in trust until the age 25, but allowing youth to draw on the money to provide for specific needs. Low income does not provide a person the means to gain safe housing. By safe housing I mean having the ability to move away from areas where there are higher levels of crime. By giving a youth the means to rent in safer areas they may be able to make the choice to leave prior behaviours such as criminal behaviours.

6. Increase Transitional services MCFD has a 'dump and run' approach to youth aging out. Sec 70, 1(a) states that kids in care "to be fed, clothed and nurtured according to community standards. I do not know any families that throw their kids into society with no support at the age of 19 MCFD's current approach to transitioning kids at age 19 is in conflict with the CFCSA. Families stay involved and are supports to their children and help them succeed, by not providing supports we are further oppressing foster kids. As well, the $500 supplied to clients for set up expenses when they age out is just not enough.

7. Client files locked and unable to edit upon a death of a kid in care In conversations with Alex's social worker (days later) she stated she was "working on his file." To me this could be a telltail sign that the social worker was behind on documentation and possibly editing his file to minimize the likelihood of responsibility and litigation. I have no trust in what is in Alex's file knowing that his social worker had access to his file and could edit anything within it. Upon a death all client files need to be locked and uneditable by. This file needs to remain unedited and access to it would only be to investigators who also are not able to edit it. Any further documentation needs to be in a separate file this way when an investigation takes place all evidence in the file gives an accurate picture of the events that lead to the death instead of an edited version of it. This includes hard copies of the file; these need to locked up so no documents can be altered or shredded.

Page 13 of 62 OOP-2017-70699 8. MCFD not to investigate themselves. The youth advocate should have the power to seize all files immediately when a child in care dies. This would give a better picture of the causes because the social worker would not have time to 'doctor' the files.

9. Counselling paid for foster parents or others who work or have worked with kids in care. In my case I was experiencing trauma symptoms that affected my life and my relationships. From the beginning I received a referral to victims assistance, but they would not provide funding for psychological services. I tried to get counselling through Worksafe BC but as I was no longer the caregiver and I had cancelled my Worksafe coverage when I left as his caregiver so I was denied coverage. Through my relationship with one First Nation Leader they advocated to MCFD upper management/deputy director for counselling but this again was denied. I struggled severely with my symptoms and seen my doctor who confirmed I needed a psychologist to work through trauma issues. The problem is victims assistance. Worksafe and mcfd would not help and psychological services are not covered by BC medical Services so I had no access to psychological services unless I paid for it out of my pocket. This is a grey area that needs to be addressed because there are many foster parents throughout the province who suffer and get no help. Foster parents whether contracted through an agency or directly with MCFD deserve help for trauma and the Government should be responsible to supply these services at no cost.

Premier Clark: Really, the ongoing tragedies with the Ministry caring (NOT caring) for children put into care in our province is beyond scandalous. NOTHING has been improved for years. Expensive report after report ends on a "never again" note, yet these tragedies (Gervais being just the latest) continue, along with many others that do not end in death but scar children & set them up for lives of despair, addictions, & anti-social behaviour.

Whatever happened to "families first"? Why can't our province concentrate on intense, quality help for troubled children to prevent them from ending up in care & eventually addicted to drugs instead of slapping band-aids on the epidemic drug problems & pretending that that's really making a fundamental difference. Even if you only want to look at the issue from an economic perspective, wouldn't it be much cheaper to give intense, high-quality care to vulnerable children & prevent them from living on the streets (high costs there, think Tent City), having high rates of emergency & hospital services (costly! costly!), requiring extraordinary assistance from our emergency services (pricey!), needing treatment centres & services (look at the figures for band- aid treatment Terry Lake is currently bragging about), going to jail or prison (costs a fortune & often makes people worse), making more expensive studies & investigations that accomplish little if anything, and on & on & on & on.

You keep Stephanie Cadieux in her position, you keep defending her. So if she is doing such a fine job, WHO IS RESPONSIBLE for these chronic tragedies?

Part of the problem, without question, is the utterly inadequate funding which results in seriously overloaded & burned out social workers. Further, because of money not being given for vulnerable children, the quality of foster homes is clearly at a dangerously low level. If BC provided enough social workers to comfortably & properly handle their children-related cases, if we paid well & got healthy, competent people caring for foster children, there would be a far more humane outcome.

Does Cadieux ever go out in the field, ever arrange for grassroots social workers to speak freely about what they're up against? I suggest you accompany her to the office in Esquimalt & find up what the social workers dealing with aboriginal children are up against. Chase down the multitudes who have had to leave that department because of the debilitating stress involved. Or hop on out to Port Renfrew or Holberg or Dease Lake or Prophet River & find out what a single parent with a child in need is up against trying to get meaningful help.

To perpetuate such an inhumane system, to keep defending its leader, to keep pretending our children are well looked after is worse than unconscionable. s.22 _ Registered voter

That was just the icing on the cake for you this week, we haven't forgotten that you rolled back the foreign home buyers tax AND that your corrupt government is responsible for the death of Alex Gervais. We will not forget the multiple children who have died because of YOUR incompetence and greed.

You're a disgraced Premier, we demand your resignation. s.22

Honourable Minister Cadieux and Premier Christy Clark:

Your government and Ministry must take immediate steps to help BC foster kids now.

The death of Alex Gervais, the scandalous state of group homes, and the abandonment of aging- out foster kids MUST be addressed. You need to make concrete changes to improve the foster care system now.

More money is needed. The money must be spent wisely and with careful oversight. The Ministry must take more direct responsibility for the children in its care.

I am the director of a very small organization called s.22 and have been lobbying the government for over a year to improve the system. The time for action is NOW.

Thank you.

Sincerely s.22

As a Liberal supporter and Voter ..I'm so disappointed in the report that was released today about the young 18 yr old that committed suicide in 2015.

If your Minister Stephanie Cadieu doesn't Step down immediately OR ISN'T FIRED.

I no longer Can.vote Liberal moving forward.

If Stephanie is still in the same role when voting day arrives...my vote will go to NDP.

I have never ever have sent an email or called complaining about anything regarding political issues BUT was moved to do so...

And I will be expressing my thoughts to Family and Friends who will probably follow suit.

I hope that I get a response.

Dear Premier Clark,

Some of the most conservative, even libertarian, young people I know are vowing to not vote for you over the decisions your government has made re the 15% tax on foreign buyers and especially the loans to young people (when the federal government is discouraging young people from getting in over their heads, you are helping them do it. And helping to keep the market going up by creating demand. The young people I know see right through this blatant attempt to buy votes.

Furthermore, the cash for access fundraising is very offensive.

Now, today, we hear you on the radio going the Trump route of making allegations without providing evidence when asked for it. It was also interesting in the long ramble "well the thing of it is... you know, what I think, etc" you made while answering the reporter (that did not answer the question) ended with your talking point of "the people are going to want someone who gets jobs." They also will want someone who has their trust. One thing the Trump circus is making clear to people here is that we do not want to participate in "alternative facts." s.22

The hypocrisy of the BC Liberals and Premier Clark is truly breathtaking.

First, they have no compunction or hesitation in releasing private NDP documents just before John Horgan was to present the material publicly.

Then the Premier complains loudly, without any justification or proof at all, that the NDP tried to hack into the BC Liberals website. It turns out that the "stolen" document was publicly available on their website for anyone to download. Was there an apology for the rash and premature accusation? Not that I have heard.

So you said that IT was a funny industry and now your allegations of hacking by the BC N DP are incorrect? Seems like you need the facts before you attack.

IT is very logical and your accusations were only for the election and the headlines.

Not a vey good position to be in as Premiere in an election cycle—false accusations redacted from your own people. This proves you are not able to run the province and you cannot even run a server—Should we start calling you Hillary or Nasty Woman?

PS: Its really sad for the BC government to take money from GST rebates from the federal government for low income people when a person cannot pay for BC Medical. Shame on you and your government. Whats next one can't pay BC Medical and then one can no longer get car insurance? Perhaps one is no longer able to buy prescriptions or purchase groceries? Maybe you are would even outlaw employment if one is in arrears? It always happens one step at a time and most people just accept. I would believe your government is capable of these things and worse.

I was astonished to hear and read in recent days and in various media sources that you directly accused the BC NDP Party of hacking into the BC Liberal Party website. In your public accusations, you had no proof to back up your claims.

Such unsubstantiated claims are harmful to the credibility of government and do not show the BC Liberal Party in favourable light. In fact, your remarks tarnishes BC politics and contributes to the cynicism of many towards government. Your reckless remarks do not dignify the office to which you hold.

In your efforts this morning to dial down your previous remarks as "jumped to a quick conclusion. Did so out of anger." do not justify your actions and comments but are further proof that leaders must think first before acting or speaking when in anger. A politician with your lengthy experience should know that. Nowhere in this excuse this morning did I see any remorse or apology.

This is not the United States where "alternative facts' are being made on a daily basis. The citizens of British Columbia deserve better from their elected officials and government.

I call upon you to call a press conference at your earliest convenience to apologize sincerely to John Horgan, the BC NDP Party and the citizens of BC for your reckless remarks. Words and actions made in anger have consequences.

Yours truly, s.22

Dear Hon Premier,

I was very dismayed to hear about the accusations made against the NDP that they may have tried to hack Liberal party data. That such a hack would be attempted is dismaying. But making that kind of accusation without proof is just as dismaying as it smacks of Trumpism (excessive and blatant use of denial, anti-facts and downright lying). These accusations may have some truth and if they do then you must bring the evidence to light (preferably and first and foremost to the police). It is my feeling that many voters in B.C. and Canada are going to be hypersensitive to Trumpism over the next year or so and you would be wise to turn that kind or rhetoric down below even normal election levels. I am not an NDP voter but if you don't work this one out to my satisfaction you will certainly not get my vote in the upcoming election and I am afraid that many voters may respond in a similar way.

Your accusation that the NDP hacked your site is shameful and completely in error, which has been proven by the comments of Vicki Huntington.

Apologize forthwith - without equivocation, humbly and publicly. s.22

British Columbia does NOT need a Trump-lite premier. We am so disgusted and disappointed in the 'made-up' email hack accusations. We are not a fan of the NDP but it is time for a change of government in this province. It is time to clean house - the liberals have been in power too long as seen in your behaviour over the 'hacking' to cover up the deep problems in social services, etc. etc. Issues are taking a back seat to Trump-like behaviours. s.22

Dear Miss Clark. You publicly, and without proof, accused the NDP of hacking into the Liberal website, yet you chose to apologize for your falsehood by leaving a voice mail message for the Leader of the NDP. Both actions were childish and without any sense of honour and integrity. Is that how you say you are sorry? Shameful. More pitiful examples of how you are inappropriate to be BC's Premier. s.22

Dear Premier Clark,

As a long time supporter, including my vote for you during the leadership campaign, I am very upset at your actions over the past few days, with respect to your false accusations against the opposition leader.

I expect more from you, and in my opinion your actions were not appropriate for someone who is the leader of our province.

I hope you will not continue to act this way during the upcoming election campaign, as we do not need any 'untruths' on this side of the border. We all know from the media that there was no evidence of hacking, making this a shameful act.

Yours truly, s.22

My parents said to me more years ago than I care to remember that telling part of the truth is nearly as bad and sometimes as bad as lying. You just proved my point. Listening to CBC Vancouver interview you re the so called hack of the Liberal Party by the NDP you said you had called Mr. Horgan and apologized. Later I heard Mr. Horgan say he had not yet listened to your apology. So my conclusion is that you left your apology by voice mail. Classy! Real Classy! By my parents definition, at best you were not fully truthful. I guess this is the era of alternative facts coming into BC politics. While this may appear to be a criticism please do not take it as such. It is just alternative praise. s.22

Premier Clark Your unfounded accusation on live media re hacking is appalling. Stop your dirty Trump-style politics, apologize to the people of BC. If you want to play dirty, perhaps you should move south. s.22
