B.C. Rail Corruption Scandal
In 2003, Gordon Campbell broke his promise to British Columbians, betrayed British Columbians in the north and the Cariboo, and sold B.C. Rail.
But the sale was more than just another broken promise - it sparked the largest political scandal in B.C. history.
More than five years after police conducted an unprecedented raid on the B.C. Legislature, the Campbell government is still stonewalling and the people of B.C. still don't have answers about what happened.

Six government affidavits were acquired by the Official Opposition in May of 2008 in an attempt to examine and highlight that abrupt change.
