This book chronicles the transition of British Columbia's political climate from an era of patronage and corruption to one of greater accountability and transparency. The author provides historical context for the province's political evolution, tracing its roots back to the gambling and saloon culture of the early days of white settlement. The book delves into the impact of patronage on the lives of politicians and citizens alike, highlighting the ways in which it stifled aspirations, fostered corruption, and hindered the development of a more just and equitable society. The author argues that the elimination of patronage has opened the door for individuals dedicated to serving the public interest to do so without fear of retribution, marking a significant chapter in the province's political history.
