“We’re building something incredible here in West Vancouver-Capilano,” said Kirkpatrick. “This puts to rest any concern about a supposed “vote split” in this riding. If you don’t want the BC Conservatives to win on October 19th, the only choice is to vote independent.”








I feel bad for Karen and will vote for her. She was blindsided by Kevin Falcon and his sister-in-law, who seemed to have secretly orchestrated a deal with BC Conservatives without caring two hoots about their candidates. It was a wicked move, and I hope Karen wins and gets revenge from BC United and Falcon, a party and a man that have betrayed the public and right-minded people like Karen.
