Lo and behold, Chambers is leaving two days earlier than announced -- according to a July 4 farewell party invite sent by his secretary to staff."I have accepted an offer to be the President of the Motor Vehicle Sales Authority of BC..."

After more than 18 years Jay Chambers is leaving the Liquor Distribution Branch (LDB). Jay has been the General Manager of the LDB since January 1997. He joined the LDB in January 1994 as the Director of Store Operations, and in March 1994 he became the Executive Director of Retail Services. He will be missed!

Now it's up to chief financial officer Roger Bissoondatt to lead the organization through its milestone warehousing and distribution privatization, until a new boss is hired. If, that is, the government actually goes ahead with a privatization that has been described as "tainted" by NDP critic Shane Simpson and compared with the 2003 BC Rail privatization that the BC Liberals have still not fully explained. A shortlist of six bidders as published July 3 and there are intriguing connections between most of them.
