We didn't get 700,000 signatures of voters opposed to the HST in less than 90 days by fooling people - that's ridiculous.<br /><br />The BC government repeatedly refused to tell voters anything about the HST impact or list goods & services impacted, despite our requests. We have corrected any inadvertent errors promptly. <br /><br />But to blame a grassroots group with no staff & a tiny budget versus a provincial government is not credible.Bill Tielemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03304971610140279157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-83415204378568373672010-06-28T13:15:05.299-04:002010-06-28T13:15:05.299-04:00It doesn't help that a Statistics Canada evalu...It doesn't help that a Statistics Canada evaluation of BC's HST found that it would cost the average family about three times as much as the government and Fraser Institute, had claimed. Stats Can was able to demonstrate that Victoria's methodology was quite deliberately skewed. Not only has the government not explained the tax to the public but it has gone well beyond that to lie about it. Is it any wonder the Campbell government is on its way out?The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.com
