 Glen Clark - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glen David Clark (born Nanaimo November 22, 1957) is a former politician in British Columbia, Canada who served as the 31st Premier of British Columbia from 1996 to 1999.
Clark called an election in 1996 in which his party narrowly won a majority of seats, despite receiving fewer votes across the province than the second-place BC Liberal Party.
Clark left office as one of B.C.'s most unpopular premiers, and the unpopularity of his government was directly attributed to the landslide victory of the BC Liberal Party that swept Gordon Campbell to victory in 2001.

 Did Chr»tien destroy Clark?
Clark complained that Ottawa was not helping BC fishers in the way that Washington was helping Alaska fishers in a dispute over the allotment of international quotas for salmon fishing on the west coast.
After Clark was forced to resign in the scandal arising from the RCMP raid of his home, the Canadian federal government under Chrétien took the historically unprecedented step of expropriating Nanoose Bay from BC, before promptly renewing the Pentagon's lease on it in perpetuity.
Given the gravity with which Clark's threats over Nanoose Bay were received in Washington and Ottawa, it is not implausible that Montague was conducting work on behalf of Carl's secret group of Chrétien loyalists within the RCMP when he collaborated with Gordon Campbell and enlisted John Daly in a campaign to destroy Clark.

The cost of the damage awards and the legal fees is not borne by Glen Clark, Georgetti, Johnson, Lambert, Denhoff, the ICTU, nor even the NDP, even though they were clearly responsible.
Clark just shrugged this incident off and a tame media community has let him get away with it.
The lesson that any NDP politician will learn from the episode is that actions such as these are fine and dandy because Clark and his friends got away unscathed, despite being nailed in what the Judge accurately described as "extremely malicious" actions.

 Sympathy for Glen Clark
From the time that his government first squeaked into office (in '96 the NDP actually polled less of the popular vote than the opposition Liberals but the distribution was such that they obtained more seats in the Legislature) he came under steady fire from every right-winger in or out of the province.
If ever Clark appeared to do anything well this only made newspaper editors and think tank flaks bellow the louder; for if there is one thing worse than a (nominal) social democrat who's making a botch of things it's the same person doing a half decent job.
By no means am I defending pork-barrelling but I submit that Clark and the NDP seem to attract a great deal more censure for their misfeasance than do more avowedly right-wing administrations.
