Call it a Canadian Fireside (Yuletide) Chat.
B.C. Premier Christy Clark wished her province a Merry Christmas on Monday, using the BC Government's YouTube account, posing in front of the British Columbian and Canadian flags, and a framed Liberal campaign poster, to pass along the following message:
"This holiday season is a time to spend with families, with friends, with those that you love.
"It's a time to be thankful for the blessings in each of our lives. I's a time to rest, relax, and prepare for the year ahead, to be hopeful for the opportunities that tomorrow will bring.
"in my house, we say Merry Christmas, but you may say it another way, so to British Columbians all across the province, please accept my warmest wishes for the 2013 holiday season."
