There was no reason for the Metro board of Directors to vote in secret. While the rest of the meeting may have been in closed for legal reasons, it was not necessary for the actual vote to be secret. #accountability #transparency #NorthVancouver.

The Province must protect BC taxpayers from massive cost overruns on public infrastructure projects. At #ubcm2025 Thursday, I'm proposing the Province create an independent investigative team for oversight, accountability on projects across BC, including NSWWTP Keith Baldrey

Disappointed #UBCM defeated my resolution calling on Province to create a team to oversee Billion $$$ infrastructure projects including North Shore Wastewater Treatment Plant. Metro Vancouver Board of Directors duck accountability again. #NorthVancouver

Metro Van Chair Hurley attempts to dismiss criticism by claiming a $700 million to $3.86 billion jump “is not a cost overrun.” That’s absurd. The public deserves honesty — and a $3 billion escalation is exactly what most people would call a massive cost overrun. #BCpoli

This is why I keep demanding accountability at Metro Vancouver: British Columbians deserve to know their money is being spent wisely. vancouversun.com/opinion/opinio…

It’s nice to see a mayor south of the Fraser finally get that Metro needs a shakeup. Too bad she didn’t speak up when she and 40 other Metro directors made decisions about the NS Wastewater Treatment Plant debacle. #bcpoli

When I was hosting the afternoon drive at CKNW listeners loved to call in and crap on ICBC. But wowza... look at the auto insurance rate hikes in Alberta by comparison.
