Search the #bcpoli hashtag on Twitter and the Internet will inform you that it's Christy Clark's 50th birthday on Oct. 29.

The website, Today's B.C.Liberals, wants you to wish the B.C. premier happy birthday and there's even a placewhere you can send her a personalized message.

Of coursesocial media, being what it is, erupted with equal parts well wishes and snark.

Opposition Leader John Horgantweeted hewished Clark happy birthday in an email and added, "Make sure you don't delete it ;)"

He was, of course, referring to the political scandal from last week where the B.C.Information and Privacy Commissioner released a scathing reportthat accused her staff and office of "triple deleting" emails in order to skirt freedom of information laws.
