BC Place casino proposal: lack of independent fairness advisor raises questions
By Emily Barca
Vancouver Observer - Nov. 4, 2010
Quote:
People are definitely right when they question this and say something smells funny here, said Chandra Herbert. "I've had people suggest to me that this might have been a similar situation of a fixed deal [like BC rail]"
BC Mary comment: Interesting article. Note the technique: boring stuff in first half, nitty-gritty stuff in last half. Normally, a journalist starts a story with the colourful stuff to catch their readers'attention and hold it, until the details can be worked in later. Perhaps I'm suffering a work-related injury after all these years of reading the methods of Big Media trying to turn readers away from the BC Rail issues and away from the Basi-Virk dilemma. When I look at this BC Place Casino Proposal story, I have to wonder if the underlying intention is to put readers off before having to report the unpleasant facts of The Golden Era in B.C.

Mary, this is a big story. Fast track process with no public process gives control of bc place lands to casino partly owned by major BC Liberal bagman.
Kind of like Kinsella II.
