		It means a British Columbia where a generation of kids will grow up knowing that they're loved, that they're cared for, that they're supported and that they have a future.

	3Part II: Will rapid transit expansion in greater vancouver occur as planned? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		The provincial government’s view is that start-up preparations are operating costs and should be borne by the operator—British Columbia Rapid Transit Company Ltd. TransLink sees these activities as part of construction of the line, and therefore believes that their cost should be borne by the provincial government.
		By mid-2000, TransLink had told the provincial government that it would not likely be able to reach an agreement with Bombardier, and in late 2000 formally advised that it had been unable to do so.
		TransLink concluded that the cost of contracting operations and maintenance to Bombardier would be $4.5 million per year higher than the cost of having the work done by its subsidiary.
