  10. I asked Hydro last week if any smart meter malfunctioned and over-charged customer. Categorical No. They knew in February one had. #bcpoli
  11. Hydro removed over-charging smart meter from Kamloops home in early March, sent customer inflated bill anyway. #bcpoli #smartmeter

  14. @hollyereid @CKNW @billgood980 Thanks Holly! Felt a little rusty this week, but had a blast on the radio as always!
  15. I think we should have more politicians boxing each other. Much more civilized than the House of Commons. #cdnpoli

  19. How many Liberals will ditch politics? Kevin Falcon thinking of getting out. Could Libs start to resemble that ghost ship off the coast?
  20. Fianance Minister Kevin Falcon just said he hasn't decided whether he's going to run again. #bcpoli
