Earlier, we reported provincial New Democrat liquor critic Mike Farnworth's assistant sent an email to Canada's National Brewers Western region president Greg D'Avignon promoting an upcoming constituency association fundraiser. But the chances of him purchasing a ticket for that fundraiser were slim. After all, according to Elections British Columbia, Mr. D'Avignon and his association have made $51,304.18 worth of political contributions since 2005, with all but $600 worth of those donations going toward the Liberals.
