Mr. Speaker, yesterday British Columbians re-elected Premier Gordon Campbell and his B.C. Liberals to a third term.
On behalf of the Liberal caucus and myself, I would like to extend congratulations to Premier Campbell for a hard-fought and successful campaign.
I want to applaud British Columbians for having exercised their democratic rights and obligations. Congratulations are also in order for Carole James, leader of the NDP, and her team for a hard-fought campaign.
British Columbians have re-elected Premier Campbell to a historic third term, something rarely seen in B.C. political history.
Once again, British Columbia has experienced politics and democracy at their best. Congratulations.
