The NDP was able to build the Expo line extension and the M Line as well, Plans were also there to build the E line ( and switches and the foundation for a third rail was also installed... dont believe me.... go there and look with your own eyes) the stations was specifically designed for the Eline extension... that project is ready to roll tmr and yet the govt is stalling... they would rather develop offshore oil or a massive methane drilling project near the Flathead valley,[off topic]. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for British Columbians... the 12 billion dollar plan(excluding the Canada Line because it is under construction) is just chum change as to what is needed in this province... we need over 500 busses TODAY... and the eline should have been done yesterday! Gordo would rather have a massive propoganda campaign to tell every british columbian of his transit plans... Prince Rupert or Fort Nelson or Cranbrook or Prince George do not care about what goes on in Surrey or Richmond and they do not want to see a massive ads telling them about the few things Gordo is actually doing in the past 8 years since forming Govt... moreover, Gordo wants to show that he is GREEN but he is not... here are a few facts that don't add up to a sustainable environment for BC:

[off topic]
* The day before that Campbell gave the go-ahead for coalbed methane extraction in Elk Valley, despite concerns from local residents
* And just a few days ago the Campbell government decided to plow ahead with highway construction on Delta farmland without waiting for the Agricultural Land Commission to make a ruling.
[off topic]
* Campbell has failed to keep his promise to invest in public transit -- Translink just reported they need another $150 million a year or they'll need to reduce services
