Reports of Scott Brison's death as a viable federal Liberal leadership candidate may or may not be exaggerated. Nevertheless, the notorious Blackberry user continues to go through the motions, attending a reception this coming Sunday at the well-traversed home of national party vice-president Mike Hillman. The following is an edited copy of that invite.

You are cordially invited to a reception with

Hon. Scott Brison

Sunday, May 28, 2006

3:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.

Hosted by: Michael and Donna Hillman

Please join us as we discuss the future of the Liberal Party of Canada and the LPC in B.C.

This reception is another in a series of similar gatherings in British Columbia featuring prominent Liberals from across Canada.

We think it is important to have an open dialogue about the future of our Party and who should lead it. This is neither intended nor should be interpreted as an endorsement or support of any particular candidate for the upcoming leadership race in the Liberal Party of Canada but rather a chance to meet and help form the debate to ensure BC issues are front and centre.
