Well Campbell has limited the funds available to just 2 organizations (one for and one against) so you get zero education effect.  

The only politicians who have spoken one way or another are Oliva Chow, Denice Savoe  and Jean C ( I forget the spelling) (NDP federal mp up vancouver island).  So that is it!  The only elected politicians who have an opinion are federal NDP MP's!

Our local MLA's have no opinion. So you suggest they are too busy worrying about the economy to speak on other issues?   They are as clueless about how the economy really  works as the rest of us.

 Local Politicians have been told to go silent. They are just glove puppets. 

I guess you gotta take you oath of allegence to the leader before you take you seat here.  Maybe they have to sign something too?

I do not understand why BC local politicians are such moral cowards.

Something doesn't feel right this time around. Perhaps you will have to wait for more momentum to arrive. But if politicians have gone silent, it is not necessarily a conspiracy, but a reflection that the referendum could do worse then last time.

The People are going to have to carry this one through, and I have yet to see anything developing of substance.
