Earlier, your humble organ reported on the coming departure of at least three senior Campbell administration aides. But who's going to be replacing them, you may wonder? Well, according to the rumourmill, provincial Liberal backbencher Harry Bloy's constituency assistant Dave Teixeira may soon be packing his bags for the Garden City and selling his wrestling league. Mr. Teixeira's name had been mentioned following the last election as a possible Rockpile recruit. He recently became a source of controversy after attempting to skew the results of an online poll asking whether Coquitlam First should "fully disclose the list of contributors to its campaigns last fall?" But, according to at least one of readers, he's also "a great person who helps out a lot in Port Coquitlam." Mr. Teixeeira was the campaign manager for Coquitlam First. He hasn't yet returned a phone call seeking comment on this story.

I joined the BC Liberal Party while they were still in opposition. Besides all the obvious reasons not to support the NDP the other reason was I hated, hated their tactics. Their backroom deals, patronage appointments, all of it. I Just COULD NOT STAND IT!
I can tell you that what went on with Coquitlam First is not why I am on the BC Liberal side. Nonetheless, their numbers are up in a recent poll and I am sure that they are feeling justified now that they have weathered the little Coquitlam First squall. After all, it was yesterday's news.
The respect of party members in the general public is not their top priority and I am pretty pissed.
The platform that the BC Liberals ran on was right and just and worth supporting. They DO NOT have to play by these rules, period.
Interesting that Teiexra is moving up. Brian Bonney, the other one behind Coquitlam First was also moved up. He's now Director of Operations in charge of contituency development.
Why are the BC Liberals hiring these people?
It appears that anyone involved with covering up Coquitlam First's donation is being rewarded by the BC Liberal Party. It certainly makes you wonder just what it was they were hiding.
Interesting how the Great Gama Singh a wrestler under Dave Republic's banner is Harry "Rosen" Lalli's cousin.
