New B.C. cabinet minister congratulated — sort of

Dear editor, Congratulations to Don McRae on his promotion to cabinet.

Dear editor,Congratulations to Don McRae on his promotion to cabinet.I'm not sure if he has any qualifications to be agriculture minister but that never stopped the late Stan Hagen from being appointed to numerous ministries, did it?Will his mission be to dismantle the ALR system to benefit his big real estate development friends? Time will tell. One should also congratulate him on the failure of the recall campaign; big money, big media, disinformation and an apathetic public will always win out over people who care about democracy. One could surmise that hanging out with wealthy B.C. Liberal corporate toadies pays off handsomely in the end. It's a fine lesson for the kids out there; associate with people who blatantly deceive others and pervert the democratic process and you too can be rewarded with a cushy job (with benefits).I assume that's what he'll be passing on when he returns to teaching. All the best, Don!Grant Ingraham,Comox Valley
