BC NDP

Gordon Campbell is trying to paint himself as an environmentalist with a gas tax that does little to combat climate change. In fact, the Campbell environmental record fails on many fronts.

• Gordon Campbell is pressing for oil and gas exploration off the B.C. coast and promoting coal bed methane without any safeguards.
• The Campbell government continues to ignore recommendations that salmon farms take a precautionary approach to protect wild fish species. 
• B.C. remains one of only two provinces without protection for endangered species.
• The Campbell government-backed private power projects threaten streams all over B.C.
• Agricultural land is being removed from the land reserve, and cutbacks have reduced environmental protection and conservation services.

You can't trust Gordon Campbell when he says he is protecting the environment in B.C.
