Sorry but, how does the former BC Liberal gov't get credit for this?
1. The Liberals prioritized Corporate interests, while it's common knowledge that small businesses are the real economic driver.
2. Governments are not the be all and end all of economic activity.  "Liberal-generated surplus"?  Let's drop that illusion.  
3. The Liberals prided themselves as "the people in the business suits", yet were way off in their forecast.  How does this qualify them as having been competent managers - especially as the pronounced miss was on the 'positive' side?
4. A surplus pales when racking up all-time-high debt, and seeing highest poverty levels in Canada.  
Liberal pundits are guilty of 'heads I win, tails you lose' logic here.  If the economy 'grows', that's the former government's credit.  If it doesn't, that's the NDP's fault.  No matter WHAT the NDP now do, they will fail based on this logic.  Ridiculous.
