text: I am pleased to see the G&M highlight this issue, but kind of disappointing that Gary Mason chose to focus on BC politics and the whole outdated 'Wild West' thing. Compared with what has happened in Quebec, Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa, etc over the last couple of years, BC looks like a beacon of integrity.
  
  BC needs to clean up its act for sure. But it's time the high-browed editors Central and Eastern Canada started to put some balance into these articles. BC is not the crazy political and business scene it was 20 years ago.
