| It was the Liberals led by young and talented Barry Penner that led the figth against the Sumas 2 power project and this won't be forgotten by the voters here in the heart of the Bible Belt - the NPD will probably finish third here behind the Reform/Unity candidate.Barry has an outside chance of being the Attorney General if Premier Campbell choses to give Geoff Plant some other senior portfolio. |

| Barry Penner is the incumbent MLA here. He will have no problem being reelected in the coming BCLiberal sweep. This riding is in the conservative Bible belt. |
