If BC and Lower Mainland residents cannot give Premier Notley a polite audience, even if they disagree with her positions, then they should not expect any polite audience for BC proposals either to other provinces or to the Federal government. We live in one country. The Lower Mainland is not its own principality, yet.

Read Mr. Weaver's comment - "It is frankly offensive for the Premier of another province to come to our province to market her project.". My response, and I lived in BC for over 40 years, is that Andrew Weaver should now resign, as he does not have the civility required of a politician, any and every politician. I would make the same comment to the mayors of Vancouver and Burnaby, to John Horgan, the leader of the same political party as Rachel Notley, and to Christy Clark, the BC Premier.

If you do not have the civility to meet, listen, and have a conversation with the truly elected premier of another province, then you too should resign, as you cannot be trusted.
