she opposes raising taxes

I will be voting No on the TransLink referendum. I’m happy to support transit and transportation infrastructure with my tax dollars, and currently do so alongside everyone else in this province, but it’s time to tell governments we simply cannot afford any more taxation.

There are a number of reasons to vote No. Some people will go into the details of bus purchases and tunnels for trains, or describe outrageously dire consequences for our health and economy if we refuse to vote Yes, but I’m voting No to send the government a message: Stop punishing families and individuals in B.C.


We live in one of the most expensive places in the world and many of us struggle to afford rent, groceries, electricity, phone bills, and other basic essentials. Government taxation continues to climb through fare hikes at ICBC, B.C. Ferries, B.C. Hydro, and Revenue Services’ MSP bills, with no end to the increases in sight.
