Bob Simpson Quotations

The premier struck his MLA committee on the pine beetle in the fall of 2001, and that committee deemed the infestation a catastrophic event that demanded immediate attention. Here we are in the fall of 2005 and the Campbell Liberals are just beginning to implement a plan.

This emergency scene could have been much worse and a lot more tragic, just due to the fact that if it had happened a half-hour earlier. The school would have been filled with children, or with children leaving.
