RICH COLEMAN CONFIRMS BID FOR RE-ELECTION

Vancouver – Today, Rich Coleman, the MLA for Fort Langley-Aldergrove and the Minister of Energy and Mines, announced that he will be seeking re-election with the BC Liberal Party.

“I’m strongly committed to Premier Christy Clark and the rest of the BC Liberal team as we seek a new mandate in 2013,” said Coleman.

“When I entered politics in 1996, I was very concerned about the damaging impact of NDP policies and wanted my children to have a better future in British Columbia. Today, I feel as strongly as ever that my children’s and grandchildren’s future needs to be protected. I’m seeking another term to help ensure that British Columbia’s economy moves forward not backward.”
