political donations: The NDP leader vowed to rein in the influence big money wields over government, in the wake of controversies over both Premier Christy Clark and his own expensive donor events, according to Metro News. In an editorial meeting in Metro offices, he said he'd cap political donations and ban corporate and union contributions. Big money has already made the decisions, they tell him. But he also pitched a citizens' assembly, like 2004 on electoral reform, to recommend fixes, potentially even a publicly funded per-vote subsidy, though Horgan wouldn't say where he stood on that idea. If elected, we will do just that. Take big money out of politics, he said.
