North Vancouver if Bennett was a pood premier.

Joyce Graham

North Vancouver

No. He just didn't seem
to care about the general
working public or the
non-working public. You

Tony Formosa

West Vancouver

No. He took money away
from social programs and
he put it inte his Expo

put money in mega-pro-
jects, but he should have
left the social programs
