BC Book Prizes

And this year's winner for best work of fiction is .............. Prisoner 03-02658!!!!!!!!!

This is the honorary name given to Gordon Campbell by a Hawaiian Chief.

Of course that is the Chief Of Police.

The panel has decided 03-02658's claim that 35,000 jobs could be created simply by construction of a large hydro dam with small electrical output, was considered fictional genius. This combined with his earlier claim that the 2010 Olympics would create 215,000 jobs made him the clear winner.

After spending a considerable amount of time measuring facts against fiction, the panel has awarded him a secondary accolade for having the theatrical ability to make these claims sound believable even in the face of continuous rising unemployment.

Runner up for this years award was Energy Minister "Larry The Cable Guy" Lekstrom for his fictional piece entitled "How I Will Sell Hydro To California Even Though Their Legislation Prevents It"

Last year's runner up Colin Hansen finished a strong third with this year's work " The HST Is Not A Lie, It Is A Work Of Fiction".
