New moniker for pdc, to avoid confusion with pdq.

I agree with everything that Dianavan, Metchosin, and all other BC residents said upthread. When people voted Campbell in, it was because the NDP (very leftwing) had screwed up royally. However, to give them their due, they were at least trying to benefit the people of the province. Campbell is following the Bush mode of trying to benefit only the well-off and the corporations.

The main problem that BC has, as I've seen it for 35 years, is that politics is so polarized -- we have an opportunity to vote for extreme right or extreme left, which gives us wild swings in administrations, and a lot of tearing down what the previous administration did. I really wish our parties were more centrist.
