International career

Following <mask>'s performances for Santos in their successful early 2010 season, including winning the 2010 Copa do Brasil, in which Neymar was the top goalscorer, and the 2010 Campeonato Paulista, in which Neymar scored 14 goals, former Brazilian football players Pelé and Romário reportedly urged coach Dunga to take <mask> to the 2010 World Cup. Although the widespread opinion that Neymar deserved a place in Dunga's squad went as far as a 14,000 signature petition, and despite the huge pressure on Dunga to pick Neymar, he was omitted from both the squad of 23, and the stand-by list. Although Dunga described <mask> as "extremely talented", he claimed that he had not been tested sufficiently on the international level to earn a World Cup spot and he had failed to impress enough while on international duty. On 26 July 2010, <mask> was selected for the first time in the Brazil senior team by new head coach Mano Menezes for a friendly match against the United States to be played in East Rutherford, New Jersey. On 10 August 2010 he made his debut with the national team in that game, aged 18 years old, starting the match and wearing the number 11 jersey. He scored on his debut after 28 minutes, a header coming from an André Santos cross in a 2–0 win for Brazil.On 1 March 2011, <mask> said: "Being on the Brazilian team is a privilege, There are some marvelous players and I'm very happy to be among them." On 27 March 2011, he scored twice in a 2–0 win against Scotland at the Emirates Stadium. During the match against Scotland, a banana was thrown onto the pitch after he scored from the penalty spot, which led <mask> to complain about 'constant jeering and an atmosphere of racism', implying that Scottish fans exhibited racism. While Scottish officials explained that <mask> had been booed solely for perceived injury-feigning, a German student who was in the stadium amongst Brazil supporters said that he threw the banana with no racist intentions. This led to the Scottish Football Association asking the Brazilian Football Confederation for an apology for the accusations made to the Scottish fans. <mask> refused to apologise or retract his words, claiming he "did not accuse any person or any group of supporters". 2011 South American Youth Championship and Copa América
<mask> was the leading goal scorer of the 2011 South American Youth Championship with nine goals, including two in the final, in Brazil's 6–0 win against Uruguay.He also took part at the 2011 Copa América in Argentina, where he scored two goals in the first-round game against Ecuador.

Player profile

Style of play and reception

<mask> primarily plays as either a central striker, second striker, winger or occasionally as an attacking midfielder, and has been described as "a true phenomenon". He often plays as a left sided forward for both club and country in the team's 4–3–3 formation, drifting infield, due to his energetic pace and playmaking skills; this position allows him to shoot with his stronger foot, or create chances for teammates. <mask>'s dribbling skills, tricks and playmaking ability are reminiscent of compatriot Ronaldinho. His main traits are his creativity, vision, passing, finishing, dribbling, feints, touch, and technique, being described as both "electric" and "explosive". He is a notable exponent of the rainbow flick. A prolific goalscorer, although naturally right-footed, he is capable of scoring with both feet, as well as with his head, and is an accurate free-kick and penalty taker.<mask> stated: "I'm always trying to perfect everything – dribbling, shooting, headers and control. You can always improve". He has been inspired by Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Andrés Iniesta, Xavi and Wayne Rooney. Considered to be a highly promising player in his youth, Brazilian playmaker Ronaldinho had also tipped Neymar on becoming the best player in the world, stating in 2013: "Neymar is young though, and I can't explain how special he will become. In the next two or three seasons he will become the best player." Another Brazilian star, retired World Cup winner Ronaldo also believed that Neymar could become the best in the world, commenting: "Logically, Messi is better right now but Neymar is a great talent who will show the world that he will be number one". Former Real Madrid sporting director Jorge Valdano has also praised Neymar, stating: "I like Neymar a lot.Many of his individual actions result in a goal and often it's a move that only seems to be happening with him on the pitch." After joining Barcelona, <mask> consequently established himself as one of the best players in world football. However, <mask> also has been known and criticised for his excessive diving when tackled by another player for which Pelé has said, "[h]e is a player with a body that can't take a lot of hits. [...] A lot of times he will fall because he can't do anything else, but he was overdoing it." He continued: "Even when he is fouled, he can't make a spectacle out of it". During the 2018 World Cup, <mask>'s antics inspired on social media the Neymar Challenge for dramatic dives. As the star player for Brazil (and PSG) he is often the most targeted player on the field; he was the most fouled player in Europe's top leagues in 2018.A divisive figure in the sport, he has been accused of exaggerating injury, with Eric Cantona stating Neymar is a "great actor", comparing him to a wheeled suitcase: "you barely touch it, and it turns round and round for hours." In response to the criticism over his petulance and histrionics, <mask> starred in a post 2018 World Cup commercial where he admitted to not being able to deal with his frustrations which contributed to theatrics while on the pitch and promised to change for the better. He has also struggled with injuries throughout his career. Comparisons
The media have often drawn comparisons between <mask> and Brazilian legend Pelé, as <mask> possesses similar attributes and also like Pelé came from the Santos Youth Academy and turned heads with his skill. <mask> has said that Pelé is his "role model" but also saying: "I don't like to make a comparison with Pelé". He has also been compared to compatriot Ronaldinho. <mask>'s increasing reputation led both the media and former great players to draw comparisons between Neymar and Barcelona forward Lionel Messi, which <mask> has commented on saying: "Messi is above everyone, there is no use comparing me with him.He is the best player in the world and I always get inspired when I watch good football." Ronaldo stated: "<mask> is a great talent, the best we have in Brazil. He is very similar to Messi." Zico said: "I see <mask> like a [Cristiano] Ronaldo or a Messi, the type who appears and makes things happen." After his hat-trick in a 3–1 victory against Internacional in the Copa Libertadores and Messi's five goals scored in the Champions League, <mask> said: "I am a Messi fan. I was told what he did today. I support him to score a lot of nice goals so I can keep copying and imitating him."Outside football

At the same time he also announced that he had been diagnosed with stage 4 small-cell lung cancer, which had also spread to his liver. Early life and education
<mask> was born in Enfield in north London on 5 February 1945, the son of <mask> (née Taylor) and <mask>.His father was a spectacle frame maker and his mother was a secretary. The family emigrated from Tottenham to New Zealand in 1955, where friends gave him the nick-name "Pom", and <mask> attended secondary school on a scholarship at Christ's College in Christchurch. He went on to study history at the University of Canterbury, earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1965, and a Master of Arts in 1968. Receiving a Commonwealth Scholarship he then gained a PhD in social and economic history from the University of Edinburgh. He was the first person in his family to attend university. From 1971 to 1981 he was a lecturer at the University of Otago, with a term as a visiting fellow at the Australian National University from 1975 to 1976. One of his students was future MP <mask>, of whom he said "A very bright student, but you knew there was something not quite right, even then."Whilst <mask> was researching his thesis on poverty in the late 19th century in London he discovered that the street in which his maternal grandparents grew up was famed for semi-criminal activities. They proceeded to become "working class respectables" and then his father became a semi-skilled tradesman. <mask> became a naturalised New Zealand citizen in 1975. Member of Parliament

<mask> joined the Labour Party in 1974, and served on the party's Executive and Council between 1976 and 1981. At the 1981 general election he was elected MP for the Dunedin electorate of St Kilda. In 1983 he was appointed Labour's spokesperson for the environment. Fourth Labour Government

When Labour entered government in 1984, <mask> became Senior Whip.Due to his knowledge of economics, <mask> became increasingly involved in the disputes surrounding the Minister of Finance, Roger Douglas, who supported the liberalisation of trade and the sale of state assets plus deep tax cuts. These goals, which were against traditional Labour policies, angered both party members and the public. When the Prime Minister, David Lange, attempted to limit the influence Douglas had on the government's direction, <mask> became involved on Lange's side. After Labour's re-election in 1987, <mask> was made Associate Minister of Finance (an attempt by Lange to provide an anti-reform counterbalance to the radical Douglas) and Minister of Social Welfare. After <mask> had been elevated to Cabinet, his father died following a long and painful illness, his marriage ended, and his dog died prompting him to ponder resigning; "I seriously considered quitting from Cabinet, but the least I could do was stay there for Helen [Clark] and David [Lange] and make sure we didn't lose social policy to the Rogernomes who were driving so much of the policy." Eventually, Douglas was forced to resign, but a month later the political controversies around the dispute prompted the resignation of Lange himself. Douglas was succeeded as Finance Minister by David Caygill, one of his allies (albeit a considerably less radical one).<mask> was made Associate Minister of Health, in an attempt reduce the effect of reforms on that sector. In 1989 he married fellow Labour MP Anne Collins. Opposition
When Labour lost the 1990 election – attributed to public anger at Douglas' reforms, and disarray within the Labour Party – <mask> returned to being Labour's spokesperson on social welfare. The following year he replaced David Caygill as Shadow Minister of Finance, <mask> being seen as more fiscally moderate to help blunt the growth of the newly formed Alliance party (which was made up largely of Labour dissidents). After Labour's narrow defeat at the 1993 election, Helen Clark won the leadership of the party. At the same time <mask> ran to replace her as deputy leader, but was defeated by Caygill by the narrow margin of 23 votes to 21. Before Labour's position in the polls improved, <mask> was also involved in an attempt to oust Clark as party leader, which was not successful.Soon after, when Caygill decided to retire from politics in 1996, <mask> took the deputy leader's post unopposed as well. <mask> has claimed to be happy with his position as second, saying that in terms of personality, he is "a number two sort of person". Many commentators agree, believing that <mask>'s strength lies more in administration than leadership. On 26 August 1999, <mask> was named by the Speaker Doug Kidd for saying that the National Member Max Bradford had lied, and that he was a "stooge" of the Employers Federation. Fifth Labour Government

Prior to the 1999 New Zealand general election, <mask> and his family moved to Napier, prompting him to stand down as Labour's candidate in his Dunedin South electorate at the upcoming election as it would have been to difficult to have a family base in Napier, while also being in Dunedin for electorate business and Wellington for Parliamentary business. After Labour MP Geoff Braybrooke signaled his intention to retire in 1999, <mask> expressed interest in running for Braybrooke's Napier electorate seat, although after Braybrooke reversed his decision <mask> decided to contest the 1999 election as a list only candidate. As Deputy leader <mask> was guaranteed the number 2 placing on Labour's list and Labour's electoral victory in 1999 resulted in <mask> easily being returned to Parliament as a List MP and becoming Minister of Finance.As Minister of Finance, <mask> delivered nine consecutive budget surpluses, the longest unbroken run by any finance minister since the 1940s. After the government's defeat in 2008, his successor Bill English praised the Labour government, telling reporters that New Zealand was starting from a “reasonable position” due to <mask>'s budgets “saving up for” a rainy day fund in dealing with the global financial crisis. After the 2002 election, the electoral support for Labour's junior coalition partner (the Progressive Party) was not sufficient to justify its leader holding the Deputy Prime Minister position, resulting in <mask> replacing Jim Anderton as Deputy Prime Minister. In 2005 Helen Clark appointed <mask> to the post of Attorney-General following the election of Margaret Wilson as Speaker of the House. His appointment became controversial because of his non-legal background (only one other non-lawyer had previously held the post) and because of his previous criticisms of the judiciary, including of the Chief Justice Dame Sian Elias. His term in the position ended following the 2005 general election. However, with the resignation of David Parker in March 2006, <mask> took over the position again.He had a reputation as one of the Labour Party's best parliamentary debaters, and is known for his sometimes "acerbic" sense of humour. Budget 2006

<mask> presented his seventh budget in 2006. <mask>'s guiding principle was, he stated, "The fool who spends on the upturn will find himself broke on the downturn". Budget 2007

Labour's eighth budget in 2007 reduced company tax from 33% to 30%
and introduced a 15% research and development tax credit. It also made a number of changes to the KiwiSaver scheme. Budget 2008

The New Zealand economy entered recession in December 2007. <mask>'s final budget was delivered in this context in May 2008; it reduced income tax on the first $9,500 earned from 15% to 12.5%, and the company tax rate from 30% to 29%.Resignation and retirement from politics
The day after the defeat of Labour in the 2008 general elections and Helen Clark's resignation as party leader, <mask> announced his resignation as deputy leader of the Labour Party. Phil Goff was elected the new leader and Annette King succeeded him as deputy leader. Goff appointed <mask> as Shadow Leader of the House and Spokesperson for Treaty of Waitangi Negotiations. When he resigned from Parliament in 2009 he was replaced as an MP from the party list by Damien O'Connor. Political views
<mask> identified as a social democrat. In 2004 <mask> declared his support for the monarchy of New Zealand, describing himself as "a sort of token monarchist in the Cabinet these days". However, in 2010 he repudiated that stance, taking the view that New Zealand should move towards a republic once the Queen's reign ends.<mask> voted in favour of the third reading of the Civil Union Bill 2004, which legalised civil unions in New Zealand. In 2020 he declared his support for the End of Life Choice Bill. Despite his opposition to a capital gains tax during his term as finance minister on grounds that it was "political suicide", as the head of the Tax Working Group appointed by Jacinda Ardern, he recommended one in 2019. <mask> changed his views and saw the tax as necessary to reduce inequality in New Zealand. Post politics
After leaving parliament, <mask> held a number of public roles, including serving on the Constitutional Advisory Panel, the Tax Working Group and chairing the boards of New Zealand Post and the Earthquake Commission. He was appointed to chair the Bay of Plenty District Health Board after the 2019 local elections. He also joined the board of retirement insurance business Lifetime Income.In March 2020, <mask> stood down from most of his public roles after announcing that he had been diagnosed with stage IV small-cell lung cancer. His memoir, Labour Saving, was published in June 2021. He died of the illness in Whakatāne on 19 August 2021, aged 76. Honours and awards

In 1990, <mask> was awarded the New Zealand 1990 Commemoration Medal. On 16 December 2009, <mask> received an honorary LLD from the University of Otago in recognition of "his contributions as an Otago academic and as a respected and highly influential politician". In the 2012 Queen's Birthday and Diamond Jubilee Honours, <mask> was appointed Knight Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit. Notes

<mask> (9 August 1751 – 14 July 1825) was a wealthy British Quaker banker and abolitionist born in Stoke Newington, then to the north of London in the county of Middlesex. His London seat was Heath House on Hampstead Heath. He was one of the twelve founding members of the Society for the Abolition of the Slave Trade. Background
<mask>'s parents were <mask> (1716–1796), a London merchant from an Irish background, and Grizell Gurnell (c. 1722–1802), of Ealing. It was a numerous family, although the eldest son, Joseph, died at 25. His only surviving brother Jonathan, merchant of Throgmorton Street and partner in Gurnell, Hoare & Co, built Paradise House (now Clissold House and open to the public), a mansion in what became Clissold Park, across Stoke Newington Church Street from the family home in Paradise Row. Jonathan ran into financial difficulties, which led <mask> to attempt to assist him.One of their sisters married Thomas Bradshaw, a linen manufacturer in Ireland. Another, Mary, married the abolitionist Joseph Woods and bore the more famous botanist and architect son of the same name. The youngest sister Grizell (1757-1835) married Wilson Birkbeck in 1801, having stayed at home as nurse and companion to her father; as a wealthy 72-year-old widow, she married William Allen, another notable Quaker abolitionist, with whom she founded Newington Academy for Girls in 1824. Their elderly marriage was greeted by a satirical cartoon entitled "Sweet William & Grizzell–or–Newington nunnery in an uproar!!!" by Robert Cruikshank. Early life

<mask> was sent away to school when he was five years old, returning home only once a year. The school was in Penketh, between Warrington and Widnes on the Irwell, and was run by Gilbert Thompson.In his mid-teens he became apprenticed to Henry Gurney in Norwich, a woollen manufacturer. He had some connection with the Freshfield family there; James William Freshfield lived in Fleetwood House on Stoke Newington Church Street. He followed several branches of the <mask> family in pursuing a career in banking. He married Sarah (1757–1783), eldest daughter of <mask> (1723–1770) of the Gurney family in Norwich. Ninety friends and relatives witnessed their marriage. They lived first in Old Broad Street and could afford four servants without scrimping. Their children were <mask> (born 1777), Hannah (born 1779), and Grizell (known as Sophia or Sophy) (born 1781), and then a longed-for son, <mask> (1783–1847): "My brother was born January 14th, 1783.My father was so delighted with this event, that he hastened to his friend Mrs. Chorley that she might share his pleasure. "I have too much good news," he said, "for one day. The birth of a son, and peace concluded with America." Sarah died ten days later, and was buried at Winchmore Hill. The widower moved his family back to Stoke Newington, in the same street as his father, so that his sisters, particularly Grizell, could help with raising the children. Work
His main interests at this time were the abolition of the slave trade and the establishment of Sunday schools across the country. He was also involved in a plan to establish a free black colony in Sierra Leone.Many of his neighbours were abolitionists. From 1774 James Stephen spent his summers in Stoke Newington at the Summerhouse next to Fleetwood House. In 1772 he became a junior partner in the Lombard Street bank of Bland and Barnett, which became Barnett, Hoare & Co. The bank traded under the sign of the black horse. Further mergers followed, to form Barnetts, Hoares, Hanbury & Lloyd and ultimately in 1884, Lloyds Banking Company took over Barnetts, Hoares, Hanbury & Lloyd in a bid to gain a foothold in London and acquired the black horse sign which continues in use as the Lloyds Bank logo. The leading partner in Barnetts, Hoares, Hanbury & Lloyd, Edward Broadie <mask>, joined the Lloyds board of directors and became Deputy Chairman. In 1788 <mask> <mask> married Hannah Sterry, the 19-year-old daughter of Henry and Mary Sterry, of Bush Hill, Enfield and Hatton Garden.The family holidayed in Cromer, and kept up the connections with his first wife's relatives. Later his illness drove him to take the family to Bath, where a medical man advised him that the New River, running so close to Stoke Newington Church Street and Clissold Park, might be harming his health. In 1790 they moved to higher ground, to Heath House, a prominent mansion in Hampstead. In 1794 they became friends with Anna Laetitia Barbauld, and through her met Joseph Priestley. They knew Amelia Alderson, later Mrs Opie, Mary Knowles, the intimate of <mask>, and William Savery, a Philadelphia minister. In Bath in a later year he conversed with Hannah More. Children and descendants
In 1802 his daughter Hannah married Thomas Marlborough Pryor.His son <mask> (1783–1847) learned banking in Lombard Street from 1803, and in 1806 he married Louisa Gurney (1784–1836) of Earlham Hall near Norwich. This connected the family to (Gurney's Bank), and also to Louisa's siblings Elizabeth Fry, prison reformer, Joseph John Gurney and <mask>, philanthropists, and Daniel Gurney, banker and antiquary. The marriage was strongly supported by <mask> <mask>. According to his daughter Sarah, "I know of no event which gave my father more pleasure than the engagement of his son to the daughter of his old friend. With perfect confidence in her principles, and a persuasion that she would make my brother happy, he was pleased with her being, like my mother, a Norfolk woman, and interested himself much in procuring for them an house at Hampstead that they might be established near him." His descendants included Sir <mask>, M.P., and Viscount Templewood. His banking firm later merged with those of Joseph John Gurney and Barclays to form part of Barclays Bank.The archaeologist Francis Pryor is his four times great-grandson. Beliefs
The historian Peter Brock notes that <mask> was not wholly convinced by Quaker pacifism and quotes him as saying that he "looked upon [war] in the present state of society as a necessary evil" and that it "is the duty of a man to defend his country". References

<mask> (born October 29, 1965) is a Canadian former politician who served as the 35th premier of British Columbia from 2011 to 2017. <mask> was sworn in as premier on March 14, 2011, after she won the leadership of the British Columbia Liberal Party in the 2011 leadership election on February 26, 2011. She was the second woman to serve as premier of British Columbia (BC), after Rita Johnston in 1991, and the first female premier in Canada to lead her party to a plurality of seats in two consecutive general elections. While she lost her own seat in her first election, she led the BC Liberals to win an additional five seats for a larger majority in the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia. Subsequently, an elected member of the Liberal Party caucus stepped aside so there could be a by-election in a riding, to provide her with a seat in the House. During her second election as leader, she led her party to win 43 out of 87 ridings. Due to a confidence and supply agreement between the British Columbia New Democratic Party (NDP) and BC Green Party, her party narrowly lost the confidence of the House, forcing her government's resignation.<mask> tried unsuccessfully to have Lieutenant Governor Judith Guichon reject the NDP's and Green Party's willingness to form a new government, requesting instead that Guichon call another election. <mask>'s decision to leave politics followed shortly after this. Following a period of repose, <mask> was hired by Bennett Jones, a law firm with offices in Vancouver, in May 2018, with more appointments to follow at other institutions and firms. <mask> served as a member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) from 1996 to 2005, serving as deputy premier from 2001 to 2005 during the first term of Gordon Campbell's government. She left politics in 2005, and became the host of an afternoon radio talk show. At the time of her leadership victory, <mask> was not an MLA. She re-entered the legislature after winning a by-election on May 11, 2011, in Vancouver-Point Grey, the seat left vacant by Campbell.Her government was re-elected in the 2013 provincial election, but <mask> was defeated by NDP candidate David Eby in her own riding of Vancouver-Point Grey. She was subsequently returned to the legislature in a by-election in Westside-Kelowna on July 10. In the 2017 provincial election, she was re-elected in Westside-Kelowna. The Liberals were reduced to 43 seats—one short of a majority. After the election, the Liberals entered negotiations with the Green Party of British Columbia, which held the balance of power in the legislature. On May 29, the Green Party reached a confidence and supply agreement with the NDP. <mask> subsequently recalled the Legislature, to present a throne speech.On June 29, 2017, her minority government was defeated 44–42, on a motion of non-confidence by the NDP–Green alliance. Subsequently, Lieutenant Governor Judith Guichon denied <mask>'s request for a snap election and instead asked NDP leader John Horgan to form a minority government. Horgan succeeded <mask> as the premier on July 18, and <mask> became leader of the Opposition. On July 28 that same year, <mask> announced that she was resigning as Liberal leader effective August 4 and leaving politics. Early life and family
<mask> was born on October 29, 1965, in Burnaby, British Columbia, the daughter of Mavis Audrey (née Bain) and <mask>. Her father was a teacher and a three-time candidate for the legislative assembly, and her mother, who was born in Glasgow, Scotland, was a marriage and family therapist in Vancouver. On June 8, 2016, <mask> recounted that, as a 13-year-old girl on her way to work at her first job, she was forcibly grabbed and pulled into some bushes; she also shared that she had been subject to other sexual offences throughout her life and that she had not felt able to share this until a campus sexual assault bill proposed by the Green Party came up.<mask> graduated from Burnaby South Senior Secondary before attending Simon Fraser University (SFU), the Sorbonne in France and the University of Edinburgh in Scotland to major in political science and religious studies. She did not graduate from any post-secondary institution. In 2001, <mask> gave birth to her only child, Hamish Marissen-<mask>, with then husband Mark Marissen. <mask> was the second woman in Canadian history to give birth to a child while serving as a cabinet minister, after Pauline Marois, then a Quebec provincial minister, in 1985. Early political career

Opposition
<mask> was first elected to the legislative assembly in the 1996 election, representing the riding of Port Moody-Burnaby Mountain. During the next five years, she served as the Official Opposition critic for the environment, children and families and for the public service. She also served as the campaign co-chair for the BC Liberals during the 2001 election, in which the party won 77 of 79 seats in the legislative assembly.Government
Following the BC Liberal Party's election victory in 2001, Premier Gordon Campbell appointed <mask> Minister of Education and Deputy Premier. She brought in a number of changes that were claimed to increase accountability, strengthen parental power in the decision-making process, and provide parents greater choice and flexibility in the school system. These changes were unpopular amongst teachers, school board members, opposition politicians, and union officials who argued that the decision not to fund the pay increases agreed to by the government resulted in funding gaps. The changes made were challenged by the BC Teacher's Federation, and were later found to be unconstitutional. As Education Minister, <mask> sought to increase the independence of the BC College of Teachers against heavy opposition from the British Columbia Teachers' Federation. In 2002 the BC Liberals and Education Minister <mask> introduced Bills 27 & 28 forcing teachers back to work and banning collective bargaining. In 2011 the BC Supreme Court found Minister <mask>'s decision to do so unconstitutional.<mask> was deputy premier at the time of the privatization of BC Rail and resulting scandal. <mask> was also the co-chair of the 2001 Liberal campaign, which included a platform that specifically promised not to sell BC Rail. In 2009, Michael Bolton, defence attorney in the Basi-Virk trial, alleged that <mask> had participated in the scandal by providing government information to lobbyist Erik Bornmann. These allegations were never proven or tested in court. Her brother <mask> was the subject of one of the warrants. Though confidential draft "Request for Proposal" documents relating to the bid process allegedly provided by Dave Basi were found in <mask>'s home no charges were laid against him. Dave Basi and Bob Virk, Liberal Party insiders were charged for accepting benefits from one of the bidders.<mask> has rebuffed talk of her links to the scandal as "smear tactics". At the time of the raids and associated warrants, her then-husband Mark Marissen was visited at home by the RCMP. Her husband was also not under investigation, and was told that he might have been the "innocent recipient" of documents then in his possession. In 2004, <mask> was appointed Minister of Children and Family Development after Minister Gordon Hogg was forced to resign. On September 17, 2004, <mask> quit provincial politics and did not seek re-election in the 2005 provincial election. She declared she wanted to spend more time with her three-year-old son. Campaign for mayor of Vancouver
On August 31, 2005, <mask> announced that she would seek the nomination of the Non-Partisan Association (NPA) to run for mayor in the Vancouver Civic Elections against local councillor Sam Sullivan.On September 24, 2005, she lost the NPA's mayoral nomination to Sullivan by 69 votes out of 2,100 cast. Sullivan was subsequently elected Mayor of Vancouver and in 2013 was elected a Liberal MLA while <mask> was premier. Radio show and columnist

<mask> hosted The <mask> Show, airing weekdays on CKNW 980 AM in Vancouver from August 27, 2007, until the time of her decision to enter the BC Liberal leadership election in December 2010. <mask> also served as a weekly columnist for the Vancouver Province and the Vancouver Sun newspapers during the 2005 provincial election and an election analyst for Global BC and CTV News Channel during the 2006 federal election. Leadership campaign

On December 8, 2010, <mask> officially announced her intent to seek the leadership of the BC Liberal Party. While <mask> had long been touted as a potential successor to BC Premier Gordon Campbell, she often claimed she had no further interest in a political career. Public polling conducted prior to and after the announcement of her candidacy showed that <mask> was the frontrunner to succeed Campbell as leader of the BC Liberals and premier.<mask> launched her leadership bid saying she wanted a "family-first agenda". During the campaign she tried to cast herself as an outsider from the current caucus, and as the only candidate who could provide the change voters were looking for. <mask>'s policy proposals included observing a provincial Family Day in February, establishing an Office of the Municipal Auditor General to monitor local government taxation, and to provide a more open government by holding 12 town hall meetings a year to hear from residents. Regarding the controversial Harmonized Sales Tax (HST), she campaigned early on to cancel the referendum scheduled for September 2011. She suggested a free vote in the legislature by MLAs, believing the HST referendum has little chance of success. "Let our MLAs do their jobs and let our MLAs vote down the HST. Do it by March 31 and get it over with and get on with life in B.C.", <mask> told a crowd of about 40 in Pitt Meadows. However, she eventually decided to continue with the planned referendum. Despite her perceived frontrunner status, backbench MLA Harry Bloy was the only sitting member of BC Liberal caucus to endorse her candidacy for leader. The majority of the caucus supported the campaigns of Kevin Falcon and George Abbott, who were each endorsed by 19 MLAs. While many saw <mask> as the best hope for the party there were fears that <mask>'s past background with the federal Liberal Party could fracture the party. The BC Liberals are not affiliated with any party at the federal level and is considered a "free-enterprise coalition" made up of both federal Conservatives and Liberals, and there were fears that right-wing supporters would move to the British Columbia Conservative Party which had started to make a comeback in the province after decades of dormancy. Her campaign faced questions regarding her involvement in the sale of BC Rail due to her cabinet position and family connection to people "mentioned prominently in court documents, including search warrants", with opposition members stating that she "wants to shut down the public's questions about the scandal".It was in the wake of the controversial Basi-Virk guilty pleas that ended the trial proceedings that she declared her candidacy for the party leadership on her radio show. <mask> had called for more questions to be answered about BC Rail, but since then has said that there is no need for a public inquiry, as have the other Liberal Party leadership contenders. At the leadership convention held on February 26, 2011, <mask> was elected leader of the BC Liberals on the third ballot, over former Health Minister Kevin Falcon. She won 52 per cent of the vote, compared to 48 per cent for Falcon. Premier of British Columbia

 (2011–2017)

<mask> was sworn in as premier of British Columbia on March 14, 2011, and unveiled a new smaller cabinet on the same day. At the time of her swearing in, she did not hold a seat in the legislature. <mask> ran in former Premier Gordon Campbell's riding of Vancouver-Point Grey and defeated NDP candidate David Eby by 595 votes.Her win marked the first time that a governing party won a by-election in 30 years. After <mask> became premier, the Liberal Party saw a bounce in support and lead in opinion polls, after falling behind the Official Opposition NDP under Campbell. However, the increase in support was short lived and within months the party had fallen behind the NDP once again. Several polls eventually showed a statistical tie between the Liberals and the minor Conservative Party, with support for each party in the low twenties, while support for the NDP was in the high 40s. Internal problems within the Conservative Party towards the end of 2012 saw the party bleed support to the Liberals. In the summer of 2012, several high-profile caucus members, including the Ministers of Education and Finance, announced they wouldn't seek re-election. Though Premier <mask> suggested she "expected" the resignations, the news shook her government.The Quick Wins ethnic outreach scandal, where the Liberals used government resources as part of their partisan ethnic outreach activities, generated public outcry. During her premiership, she was accused of conflict of interest by MLA and former BC Liberal cabinet minister John van Dongen in relation to the sale of BC Rail during her service as a cabinet minister in the Campbell government. In April 2013, B.C.’s Conflict of Interest Commissioner released a decision that <mask> had been in neither a real nor apparent conflict of interest. 2013 re-election
As the 2013 general election approached, polls showed that <mask> was one of the least popular premiers in Canada. Two months prior to the election, The Province newspaper's front page featured a column by pundit Michael Smyth with the banner headline: "If This Man Kicked A Dog He Would Still Win The Election." However, <mask> ran a "tightly-focused campaign that centred on jobs, LNG, and a 'debt free' B.C." During the leaders' televised debate, <mask> attacked NDP leader Adrian Dix for his "waffling position on the Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion".Dix's strategy of taking the "high road", similar to Jack Layton's successful approach in the 2011 federal election, left him vulnerable to "relentless [BC] Liberal attacks on the economic competence of his party". <mask> defied pollster predictions by leading her party to victory, its fourth consecutive mandate but her first, in the May 13, 2013 provincial election reversing a 20-point lead held by the BC NDP at the beginning of the campaign. However, she suffered personal defeat in Vancouver-Point Grey, losing her seat to NDP candidate David Eby by a margin of 785 votes. According to parliamentary precedent, she was entitled to remain premier, but had to win a by-election in order to sit in the Legislative Assembly. She did not rule out running in a riding outside the Lower Mainland in order to get back into the chamber, telling The Globe and Mail that she believed one reason she lost her own riding was that she was devoting so much time to serving the entire province. On June 4, <mask> announced she would run in a by-election for the safe Liberal seat of Westside-Kelowna to re-enter the Legislative Assembly. The incumbent MLA, government whip Ben Stewart, resigned in <mask>'s favour.<mask> won the by-election on July 10, 2013, taking more than 60 per cent of the vote over NDP candidate Carole Gordon. Race relations
In May 2014, <mask> gave a formal apology for 160 historical racist and discriminatory policies imposed against Chinese-Canadians:

While the governments which passed these laws and policies acted in a manner that [was] lawful at the time, today this racist discrimination is seen by British Columbians — represented by all members of the legislative assembly — as unacceptable and intolerable. The entire legislative assembly acknowledges the perseverance of Chinese Canadians that was demonstrated with grace and dignity throughout our history while being oppressed by unfair and discriminatory historical laws. In October 2014, the British Columbia government exonerated First Nations leaders who had been sentenced to be hanged in the Chilcotin War by Judge Begbie in 1864. <mask> stated, "We confirm without reservation that these six Tsilhqot'in chiefs are fully exonerated for any crime or wrongdoing." 2017 campaign

On September 14, 2016 the B.C. Liberal Party named executive director Laura Miller to be the party's campaign director for the May 9, 2017 provincial election.At the time, Miller was facing charges in Ontario for allegedly deleting emails while in service with the Dalton McGuinty provincial Liberal government, though she was later found not guilty. The BC Liberals planned a bridge to replace the Massey Tunnel. The Liberal government instituted taxes for Metro Vancouver property purchases by foreign buyers ("Foreign Buyers Tax"), and implemented a program of no-interest loans from the government to first-time home buyers. <mask> campaigned on her government's economic track record, however the opposition NDP and Greens criticized her inaction on "lax political fundraising laws" and portrayed her as "beholden to big money interests", attacking the BC Liberals on "housing, transit and other affordability issues". While B.C. enjoyed strong economic growth and her government had five balanced budgets, B.C. was also "becoming behind the country’s most unequal province, socio-economically speaking, thanks to 37 per cent cuts to income tax levies, tightened rules for welfare eligibility, cuts to child-care subsidies, reductions in support for women’s centres and the doubling of post-secondary tuitions".Furthermore, <mask>'s approval ratings dropped due to her "ruthless, hyper-partisan style" which led to the perception that to her "winning always seemed so much more important than governing", in the wake of numerous scandals such as "ethnic outreach" and "triple delete" document destruction. <mask> also faced "relentless criticism over bottomless corporate and foreign donations that gave her party a four-fold advantage over the NDP, such that even The New York Times labelled B.C. the "wild west" of political cash and the province's elections agency referred its investigation to the RCMP". During her leadership of the B.C. Liberals, she had shifted them "so far to the right [with regards to environmental and energy policies] to appease its ascendant federal Conservative flank it is now unrecognizable from the centrist party led by Gordon Campbell, her predecessor". The combination of these controversies caused Liberal support in Metro Vancouver to collapse, as an estimated 100,000 voters switched from the Liberals to the Greens. Furthermore, a video of <mask> having a run-in with a disgruntled voter inside a North Vancouver grocery store went viral with the hashtag #IamLinda.In the 2017 general election, the BC Liberals held the largest number of seats (43), ahead of the NDP (41) and Greens (3), but they were one seat short of forming a majority in the Legislative Assembly. Return to the opposition and retirement
After the election, the Liberals entered negotiations with the Green Party of British Columbia, which held the balance of power in the legislative assembly, however on May 29, 2017, the Greens instead reached a confidence and supply agreement with the official opposition NDP, which on paper allowed the NDP to form a minority government by one seat. Although NDP leader John Horgan and Green Party leader Andrew Weaver did not have a close personal relationship, Weaver picked the NDP over the Liberals, citing <mask>'s dismantling of the province's climate change plan (that Weaver worked with then-Premier Gordon Campbell to develop prior to entering politics) plus support for energy companies and pipelines. Furthermore, Horgan reached out to Weaver personally while <mask> did not. Nonetheless, the Liberal government did not relinquish power yet, and <mask>'s new cabinet was sworn in on June 8, 2017. <mask> subsequently recalled the legislative assembly to test its confidence in her government, with a Speech from the Throne that included billions of dollars in new funding and key policies supported by the NDP and Greens. Critics saw the throne speech as a cynical way for the <mask> government to "desperately cling to power in selling out her party and its supporters in offering a de facto 'renewed' policy platform that stands in stark contrast to the last several years of the B.C.Liberal government and the still-warm corpse of the party’s election platform". <mask>'s gambit was regarded as unprincipled "because it’s disrespectful to voters who rely on parties as aggregators of ideas that lead to policies they like", noted that the 30 pledges were absent from the Liberals' election platform, but also the "dramatic conversion to an NDP/Green-light version of her party appear like an over-correction, given the modest shift in support" as the Liberals lost 4 percentage points of popular vote in the general election. However, both the NDP and Green Party leaders said they would not consider legislation by the Liberal minority government, and none of their MLAs broke ranks to support the throne speech. On June 29, 2017, <mask>'s minority government was defeated 44–42 after Horgan introduced a no-confidence motion as an amendment to the throne speech. <mask> then asked Lieutenant Governor Judith Guichon for a new election, contending that an NDP minority government would be unstable due to the need for one of the NDP's members to become speaker. <mask> argued that this would force the speaker to frequently use his or her casting vote to break a large number of 43–43 ties. Guichon did not agree and refused to dissolve the legislature.<mask> then resigned as premier, and Guichon invited Horgan to form a minority government, which took office on July 18. On July 28, 2017, <mask> announced that she would resign as Liberal Party Leader and exit from politics, effective August 4. Federal politics

Missing and murdered indigenous women
Beginning in 2014, <mask> has expressed her support for a national inquiry into missing and murdered indigenous women and girls. On December 8, 2015 <mask> tweeted her support of the federal government's decision to call such a national inquiry. Senate
In December 2015, <mask> expressed her disappointment over Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's plans for a non-partisan senate, saying "appointing senators on merit will give legitimacy to an unelected, unaccountable upper house." She also expressed disappointment over the lack of representation from British Columbia, as of the 105-seat chamber, British Columbia has only six seats. References

He is also the fifth most capped player in São Bernardo FC history, featuring in 125 matches and being the team captain in the club's first ever championship win. Club career

<mask> started his career at the youth ranks of Botafogo, playing as a midfielder, but he made his senior debut for Bragantino, playing in the 1999 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B. After leaving the Bragança Paulista club, he signed for Campeonato Potiguar side São Gonçalo in 2000. Under head coach Paulo Moroni, he ended up scoring three goals during the tournament and helping the club finish second overall.His play caught the attention of América de Natal, which promptly signed <mask> <mask> to play in the Copa João Havelange Group Yellow. He returned to São Gonçalo the next year, finishing the 2001 Campeonato Potiguar as the club's top scorer, netting five goals. Nevertheless, <mask> <mask>'s offensive style of play got him a move to Figueirense in the Série B. He became a starting midfielder under Gilmar da Costa, but lost his starting spot after suffering a groin injury. He was part of the roster that finished second and achieved promotion back to the first division. On 17 July 2002, he was released by Figueirense. He then signed for Fortaleza for the remainder of the year.He scored two goals in his Campeonato Cearense debut, leading his new club to a 3–1 win over Boa Viagem on 18 July. He would score again on 29 July, in a 3–1 victory over bitter rivals Ceará. <mask> <mask> played in 12 of the 29 games in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B as the Leão do Pici won promotion to the 2003 Série A. After brief spells with Coríntians de Caicó, ABC and Campinense, on 29 June 2004 he joined Série C club Treze. <mask> <mask> was signed by Joinville on 8 November 2004, helping the club to a fourth place on the 2005 Campeonato Catarinense. He renewed his contract for the Série A2 later that year, in which Joinville were crowned champions. After a stint with Juventus, he joined Botafogo de Ribeirão Preto in 2006.Ferroviária
On 4 January 2007, <mask> <mask> was signed by Ferroviária, reuniting him with head coach Edison Só, with whom he had won the Paulista A3 with Botafogo de Ribeirão Preto. The one-year-deal saw him play in the Campeonato Paulista Série A3 and the Copa do Brasil, as well as in the Copa FPF. On 28 January, he made his debut away to Flamengo de Guarulhos as a late game substitute. He made his first start on February 17, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–0 win at the Fonte Luminosa against Catanduvense. <mask> would be named again in the starting lineup on 4 March in a 1–0 home win over XV de Piracicaba and on April 15 in a 3–3 away draw against Votoraty, as Ferroviária finished the first stage at the top of the table. On 2 May, he was once again named among the starters for the match against Linense, relegating then first-choice left back Fernando Luís to the bench. He was the in the starting lineup in all games for the remainder of the second stage, in which Ferrinha achieved promotion but didn't advance to the finals.For the 2007 Copa FPF, <mask> <mask> was moved to the midfield and given the number 10 shirt. On 1 August, he scored his lone goal for Ferroviária in a 2–2 draw with Botafogo de Ribeirão Preto at Santa Cruz. He was later moved back to defence by manager Edison Só for the remainder of the competition, failing to be constantly figured in the starting XI. São Bernardo
Série A3 side São Bernardo FC signed <mask> <mask> from Ferroviária for the 2008 season. He scored his first goal for the club on his Serie A3 debut against Independente de Limeira in a 1–1 away tie on 27 January 2008. On 8 March, <mask> <mask> scored his first hat-trick for São Bernardo in a 4–1 win against Votoraty. <mask> became a valuable player for the club during the season, being played as a left winger by manager Lelo.He scored eight goals during the first stage and helped the club finish fourth, advancing to the second stage. On 17 May, <mask> <mask> opened the scoring for Bernô in a 3–1 home victory against Linense. Eight days later, he would score again against the same opponent, improving his goal tally to 10 on the year as his team won 4–1 at Gilbertão. São Bernardo took first place in a group that also featured Linense, Votoraty and Oeste Paulista, achieving promotion for the Série A2 for the first time and qualifying for the finals against Flamengo de Guarulhos. In the first leg of the Série A3 finals, on 8 June, <mask> <mask> scored from a free kick in the 39th minute to tie the game 1–1 at 1º de Maio. He would score again in the second leg, opening the scoring in the 24th minute, converting a penalty suffered by Raul.

During the second half of the year, São Bernardo played in the Copa Paulista. The club's performance was not very positive, being eliminated in the first stage, having accumulated seven defeats in 14 games. <mask> would go on to score five more goals during the competition, bringing his season totals to 17. <mask> <mask> stayed with the São Bernardo do Campo club for the 2009 Campeonato Paulista Série A2. He was a starter in the first game of the year, a 1–2 home defeat to Rio Branco on 24 January 2009. He had an eventful game a week later against Ferroviária: he netted an own goal in the 28th minute, only to score from the penalty spot seven minutes later to tie the game, which would end 2–1, giving São Bernardo their first ever Série A2 win.He continued to be featured on the left wing after the departure of Lelo, only missing one  Série A2 match after picking up three yellow cards. However, his offensive production ended up being considerably smaller than previous season's, as he would only score again on 25 March in a 2–1 come-from-behind victory over Atlético Sorocaba. Under Luciano Dias, <mask> <mask> was given the number 10 shirt and was an undisputed starter for the beginning of the Copa Paulista later that year. But as the year went on, he fell out of favor with the new manager and was deemed surplus by the end of the year, prompting a move out of Tigre. He finished the season with 38 games played and 4 goals scored in all competitions. Guaratinguetá
