VICTORIA — NDP Leader John Horgan says cataract surgery has cleared his blurry vision while his party has sharpened its focus on attacking the British Columbia government's weaknesses.
In a year-end interview with The Canadian Press, Horgan says the NDP exposed numerous child protection shortcomings and revealed government practices of deleting potentially sensitive emails.
Horgan says he will continue to support energy alternatives to the Liberals' $9-billion Site C hydroelectric dam.
But the Opposition leader refused to say if he would halt the project already underway or continue building if he wins the election in 2017.
Horgan says the Peace River dam is an example of the government's 1950s thinking at the expense of modern-day energy solutions.
He steered clear this year of naming his top five elected members, choosing instead to compliment the efforts of his entire team.
