Mr. O Brian, 
Four members of our board who were working to have the Democratic Party and 
All Nations Party come over to Reform BC did not materialize.  Instead the 
Democratic Party, through Elections BC changed their name to Democratic 
Reform BC.  The result of that had a profound effect in that Reform BC would 
not have been able to change its name to Democratic Reform BC as there was 
one already registered. 
Although section 5.1 and 5.2, Article 2 and 3 are unalterable, the party 
name was not and could have been changed but no resolution was brought 
forward to our Annual General Meeting to do so. 
Our bylaws do not permit membership in two provincial parties.  As a result 
the four board members, who supported and joined the new party, could no 
longer belong to Reform BC.  As to the rest of the Members of Reform BC it 
will be up to them to decide what party they want to join or support. 
Reform BC at this moment is not ready, nor may be ready, to run candidates 
in this coming provincial election.

Mr. Gamble: 
I have a question about the current status of Reform BC. 
>From what I have pieced together of have assumed the following: 
At Reform's Jan. 15, 2005 AGM a vote was held to disband the party and join 
the new DRBC but this vote did not pass.  As a result most of the executive 
left the party to join DRBC.  Please let me know if that is correct. 
What is very unclear, though, is do you and the new leadership of Reform BC 
intend to run candidates in the 2005 election?  I am assuming by the 
positive 
news release re: DRBC on the Reform website that though a majority of Reform 
BC members support the DRBC - including yourself and the executive they 
elected Jan. 15 - there was not the 75% support required to amend the 
constitution? 
Alternatively, I wonder if, perhaps, someone ruled that due to section 5.1 
and 5.2 of your constitution stating that Sections 2 and 3 are unalterable 
it 
was ruled that, legally, Reform BC could not disband? 
Could you please help me to shed some light on the above?  Any help would be 
appreciated! 
Thanks, 
Jordan O'Brien  
:Just FYI, I think that clarifies at least what happened w.r.t. Reform BC, they thought they were going to be taking the lead on it and when they didn't they took their toys and went home. - Jord 21:08, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)
