A BC Liberal
MLA is blasting his own party after leaked documents show a strategy of
"quick wins" with the ethnic community ahead of the may election.
Kash Heed was blunt when asked about the latest controversy over leaked government documents.

"Not impressed
what so ever but I am not surprised given what i have experienced over there in
the last four years."
Heed says someone must answer for the strategy.
Heed says someone must answer for the strategy.
"There needs to be
immediate, appropriate, and significant consequences that were involved in this
type of behaviour."
Heed says the Liberals must make
moves that are honest and genuine and not cheap political ploys.
[Ed. Unlike someone whose campaign people distributed
Chinese language pamphlets that spread fear and misinformation in the last
election and were later charged for their actions.]
He says
people aren't stupid.
"To
get the political favour from the community in this fashion is just so
inappropriate and just so disgusting as far as I am concerned."
He says
the party needs to make a serious effort to make amends or else.
"If you continue
down this particular route the wheels will definitely fall off."
As for how the party
could rebound and who might help lift the load Heed says "I guess that is
going to be up to some of these so called highly paid advisors that are working
with the party. They are going to have to determine that because they are not
worth there keep right now given what has taken place."
Heed says the party has
compromised itself and any legitimate effort it might make to build bridges
with different ethnic groups.
"And that is the unfortunate
part of it. I have had several people from the community, the Indo-Canadian
community, contact me and say that they have been clearly Liberal supporters in
the past but they are not going to support the party based on what they are now
observing is taking place."

Listen to the BC Liberals apologizing for getting caught after the BC Liberal "multi-cultural outreach" political strategy was leaked.
A memo from Clark's deputy chief of staff that recommends the party look for "quick wins" in the "ethnic community" has the B.C. Liberal government in damage control today. 'On the Coast' host Stephen Quinn spoke with Victoria Times Colonist columnist Les Leyne.
