Joseph Hughes Independent Candidate Kootenay West 2013

Canada was one of the LAST countries in the UN to sign a resolution that "recognises the right to safe and clean drinking water and samiation as a human right that is essential For the full enjoyment of life and all human rights" in 2012.

Count to three. ... Another child died from lack of access to clean water. I am at UBCM (Union of Bc Municipalities) and I questioned the ministry of international trade on CETA almost to the point of yelling. Our representative governments have allowed multinational companies rights to our water. Please educate yourselves on the water crisis. (Blue gold on Netflix

Bob Simpson, a very successful Independent MLA in the Cariboo sent me a letter with this in it : NDP Opposition House Leader John Horgan, a seasoned politician,... had this to say about Independents’ positive impact on BC politics: The advantage we have of having three independent members here is that we should be looking at our activities through the lens of their point of view. They have the luxury, many of us would say, of being able to get out on issues ahead of the government or ahead of the opposition.... We have three independent members in this place, and that has materially changed how we work as an ‘us versus them’ as government versus opposition. Those independent members have the same rights as a government minister, the same rights as an opposition critic ... to participate in debates not just on a whim, on a fancy, but in the interest of the people that sent them here, in the interest of the public of British Columbia. On May 14th you have an opportunity to make history by re-electing an Independent MLA for Cariboo North. You can cast your vote with the knowledge that you will be effectively represented at both the provincial and the constituency level. Your vote does matter and it does count.
