NDP accuses BC Liberals of using taxpayer cash to boost re-election hopes

The BC Liberals are promoting themselves under the guise of advertising government works.

That’s the claim from NDP finance critic Bruce Ralston.

“Two of our BC New Democrat MLAs were up at the Liberal convention and they were handing out some BC Liberal stuff there that looks very much like some of the public advertising for the jobs plan, so it’s almost as if they’re two sides of the same coin.”

Ralston says those ads promoting government work have been increasing in the run-up to May’s provincial election.

He’s calling for the Liberals to disclose how much taxpayer money is going into those ads.
