From article: "Re campaign finance reform, BC Libs should) Get ahead of public opinion, or, just catch up with it."

PUBLIC OPINION IS often the same as RULE OF THE MOB... NOT NEEDED in British Columbia!!

& since G + M editorial writers are proponents of blindly following "public opinion": 

Would you choose to emigrate to Saudi Arabia where "public opinion" is staunchly against affording equitable human rights for women, minorities, gays, et cetera??

Public opinion is not always "ethical" or "right" or "just".... That's why we have a system of laws and courts, and a Charter of Rights and Freedoms in Canada- to prevent "public opinion" from over-riding the rights of individuals...

LAWS AGAINST CORPORATIONS & WEALTHY INDIVIDUALS DONTING TO POLITICAL PARTIES ARE (& IF ENACTED IN BC WOULD BE) UNCONSTITUTIONAL: IE: WOULD INFRINGE SECTION #2 (FREEDOMS OF EXPRESSION & COMMUNICATION) RIGHTS OF CANADA'S CHARTER OF RIGHTS & FREEDOMS!!
