Local MLAs maintain Official Opposition duties
BC Liberal Leader Kevin Falcon Dec. 8 announced his new Official Opposition shadow ministers and Columbia River-Revelstoke MLA Doug Clovechok and Kootenay East MLA Tom Shypitka again have meaty portfolios.
Clovechok retains his role as Caucus Whip and will become Shadow Minister for Columbia Basin Initiatives and Shypitka remains as Shadow Minister for Mines & Low Carbon Innovation.
“While the NDP may have anointed a new Premier and grown the size of Cabinet, British Columbians still haven’t seen things improve after continued NDP inaction on the important issues facing people in every corner of our province,” Falcon stated.
“Our BC Liberal Caucus remains committed to holding them to account for that lack of action in areas like healthcare, affordability, and public safety, all while continuing to push government for bold responses to the various crises we must collectively tackle.
“As the Official Opposition, we have a responsibility to make sure David Eby and the NDP are held accountable for their decisions in government and I’m excited to name new opposition shadow ministers today to do just that.
“I’m incredibly proud to work with such a talented team of dedicated MLAs who will use their diverse skills and experience to ask tough questions, raise important issues, and work hard on behalf of their constituents and all British Columbians.”
