Gordon Campbell running for Conservative nomination

[2xeagle16]

Is this the same Gordon Campbell that drove BC Hydro and BC Ferries into the ground, and has the lowest approval rating of any politician in Canada?

In January 2003, Campbell was arrested and pleaded no contest for driving under the influence of alcohol while vacationing in Hawaii. According to court records Campbell's blood-alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit. In Hawaii, drunk driving is only a misdemeanour, in Canada it is a Criminal Code offence. As is customary in the United States, Campbell's mugshot was provided to the media by Hawaiian police. The image has proved to be a lasting personal embarrassment, frequently used by detractors and opponents. Campbell was fined $913 (US) and the court ordered him to take part in a substance abuse program, and to be assessed for alcoholism.[31]

A national anti-drinking and driving group, Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) Canada called for Campbell to resign.[32]



Remember before you vote for this guy... If he was arrested in Canada, he would be a convicted felon.

My guess is he will end up in the Senate.
He will replace Duffy but he might need a new cottage in PEI.
You know a principal residence that he visits on the odd weekend, in the summer.

Just confirms that the BC liberals are really conservatives. Anything to get elected!

His arrogance and ego know no bounds.

When he was still in power he showed up the men's BC finals rugby game at Thunderbird Stadium and he was booed very hard when he was introduced.... haha

In his mind it is just a stepping stone to the PM job

Judging by what people are posting on this thread, Gordon Campbell should make an ideal Conservative MP.

Interestingly enough, the Conservatives have managed to form Government since 2008.
