Show Notes

British Columbia's opposition party will choose a new leader on Feb. 3. The marathon campaign to replace interim leader Rich Coleman (who succeeded ex-Premier Christy Clark last summer) finally got feisty on Jan. 23. This is a party at the crossroads. The biggest, first task for the winner will be unity. It won't be easy to pick-up the pieces and create a new vision for the free enterprise coalition after Clark's disastrous "clone speech" that plundered the NDP and Green platforms and led to the fall of the 16-year BC Liberal dynasty. It split the party and sparked an indentity crisis.  On this edition of theBreaker.news Podcast, listen to the most-exciting moments of the six-candidate debate. Plus a commentary on Clark's deceptive claim she's a champion of women's rights, a scan of Pacific Rim and Pacific Northwest headlines, and find out how you can support theBreaker. theBreaker.news Podcast. It's free to listen.
