Here’s a clip from Christy Clark’s radio show on CKNW, Monday, November 2: Cheryl Ziola, Exec. Director BC Association for Charitable Gaming, interviewed by Christy Clark
The issue: Rich Coleman is floating the idea of grabbing bingo revenues from charities, the same way that he grabbed casino revenues from charities in late August (by cancelling Direct Access grants).

The interview is with Cheryl Ziola, Executive Director of the British Columbia Association for Charitable Gaming.
