Not really mad about. I am actually fairly convinced that it will be a long term benefit to the province. Not exactly happy with how they sort of sprung it.
And redeveloping the Conservative party could only split the right vote and get the NDP in. No thanks. |

The HST is a product of the convservative party, Harper is a conservative, right??
Don't follow your logic at all. |

It's not brought in by the Conservatives. It's from Gordon Campbell and the BC Liberals.

Well, not entirely. The federal government is going to kick in something like $1.6 billion (IIRC) for the transition. It is definitely a joint venture between the federal and provincial levels.
I believe the BC government was pretty much compelled to go with the HST model once Ontario decided to go down the same route as well. I do also believe they probably suppressed this before the election to avoid the controversy. |

they're really flip sides of the same coin .

And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. (1 John 4:16-18)  | |
