SeaBus decision exposes hollow 'Jobs Plan'

Dear Editor: The construction of a new SeaBus any place outside B.C. underscores one simple point: that the B.C. Liberals' talk of a "Jobs Plan" is just that - talk.

Dear Editor:

The construction of a new SeaBus any place outside B.C. underscores one simple point: that the B.C. Liberals' talk of a "Jobs Plan" is just that - talk.

Building the SeaBus at North Vancouver's storied Allied Shipyards could have been a practical step in building a better future for the North Shore economy and its shipbuilding industry. Instead of wasting more than $15 million advertising its so-called jobs plan, Premier Christy Clark's government could have used only $2 million to help make it a reality.

Its failure to do so shows it to be out of touch with the needs and priorities of B.C. families.
