David Eby says John Horgan 's legacy is "significant" and his work on behalf of the people of B.C. is "profound" Eby and Horgan served in the NDP for 10 years , but their relationship was not a mentoring one.

As premier, Horgan balanced budgets, delegated to his ministers and minimized blame-placing.

Eby ’s election platform, issued six weeks ago , never mentioned Horgan by name.

Vaughn Palmer: John Horgan's authenticity, charm and down-to-earth qualities can't be duplicated.

Eby could learn a lot from his predecessor’s style of leadership, the willingness to share power and take blame.

I’m already hearing doubts that the premier is capable of making the shift.
