Liberal Leadership Hopefuls Make A Stop In PG
PRINCE GEORGE — A pair of Liberal leadership hopefuls are making a swing through Northern BC before the race comes to an end next week.
Todd Stone paid a visit to party-faithful in Prince George last night, while Michael Lee arrives this afternoon. We caught up with Stone earlier today. He spoke about the need to breathe new life into the Liberal party, to attract younger members. He says, as the only candidate from outside the Lower Mainland, he would be the one to bridge the rural-urban divide.
As for the North, a Liberal stronghold, he would not turn his back.
“The economy of this province is still very much driven by and rooted in our resource sector. We cannot, for a second, take for granted the support that we have in communities like Prince George.”
