The ship of state gets a captain

Premier Gordon Campbell will be making a major speech on the future direction of his government at the Union of British Columbia Municipalities annual convention, says a senior government operative. That convention will be held between September 20 and 24 at Prospera Place and the Grand Okanagan Lakefront Resort in Kelowna. The operative characterized the pre-election speech as the "most important in Campbell's career" - but then again, aren't they all? The operative also reiterated earlier statements by Liberal party members and mid-level bureaucrats that the Campbell administration won't be introducing any newsworthy bills during the fall session (which resumes on October 4), continuing a legislative dry spell that began in the spring.
