Province: Bc Ndp and Minority Government

province: But we are also at a crossroads in terms of our ecological future, according to National Observer. Do we continue to be a province which wholeheartedly supports the extraction and export of fossil fuels, including coal, oil and natural gas Or do we openly seek a more sustainable and healthier future There are two main industrial proposals presently on the table that will shape our future as a province.
