I can’t wait for this endless nonsense about the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) to end.
I already voted “yes” to extinguish … to eradicate … to snuff out the HST.
Is it the right thing to do, financially speaking? Probably not, but I don’t care anymore.
All those little stick people, fabricated in some expensive Frankenstein ad lab, have made me mad as hell. Finally, I get to “stick it” to our arrogant B.C. Liberal government.
Take that [Premier] Christy Clark; I am pouring water on your burning desire for redemption.
The current provincial government lost its credibility, financially speaking, when [former premier] Gordon Campbell incorrectly said the HST would be revenue neutral.
Since his overthrow, the B.C. Liberals have been stumbling around in panic mode to cover their butts by promising rebates, rate changes and HST modifications, while threatening a higher Provincial Sales Tax (PST) and a $1.6 billion federal payback.
Christy, the taxpayers of British Columbia deserve better, and as premier, you should know that.
