Mr Weaver is converting to the simple notion that Site C is not a good idea for all the reasons he so ably sets out. None of them, of course, have anything to do with the need to stay in step with the Green Party, which is good otherwise one might think this was as cynical a political  conversion as Ms Christy's come-to-Jesus moment on party donations.  

BC Hydro needs disbanding. It has abused its position as a public utility which, let's face it, was only created by Mr Bennett and Mr Bonner because the banks wouldn't finance the Socreds back in the day.  

This, of course, isn't going to happen.  All three parties in contention like lots of jobs-for-the-boys-and-girls boards to park their friends on and all three think public sector economics are less prone to abuse than the private sector, despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary going back to the South Sea Bubble and forward to, well, pick your favourite public boon doggle.
