Your money... their friends

His B.C. brethren are apparently traipsing along in Premier McSlippery's muddy footprints...
The Liberals' original notion was that EHR would be up and running by the end of 2008. The current target for completion is three years hence, a full five years behind schedule.

They forecast it could be done for $150 million, all but $30 million of which was supposed to come from the federal government.

The capital cost has since grown 50 per cent to a projected $222 million, with the provincial share growing almost fourfold to $110 million. Ottawa is, theoretically, on the hook for the remainder, contingent on the meeting of certain time lines.
Remember... friends don't let friends vote Liberal.
