In addition, I kind of called out Mr. Falcon in suggesting a conflict of interest. I also suggested by the loss of little baby he would lose this temper. From what I have seen , he is the most likely gentleman to lose a temper. Lets face fact, Mr. Hanson looked stupid defend the baby HST. Did Mr. Hanson lose his temper? Almost, he came very close. If Mr. Hanson was really supporting his little baby where was he to defend that Hated Sales Tax. Out of Cabinet and disgraced.Enter hot tempered Mr. Four eyed falcon Man is he a loser. Why did he hire the Stick or sick men? I guess , he is annoying enough and brought in those characters to really bother the voters.Finally, Mr. Falcon should look in the mirror and see the failure his is.

I have a car hat for him but The Order of BC would be more appropriate. <br />Mr. Tieleman, the suggestion on removing 77% tax on meals just before Christmas is a great idea. MP & MLA s can do It. Mr. Falcon can not as he has the brain of a bird. How is it possible for him to reinstate the elder PST after his expensive waste of tax $ trying to protect his little baby the HST. Will he resign before or after he lose his temper. Can he return to his day job as a clown at the Cloverdale Rodeo?<br />To close, Chris asked a very important question.Will there be more of an adult discussion today.

As you stated if the economy is hot then GST collected grows. Conversely, if the sales are decreased then their GST gross is lower.One example is restaurant meals. If the public is eating out less the GST is lower. However, the PST portion to the province is high because previously there was no tax. Finally let me state that on private sale of vehicles ICBC did not collect the GST. Therefore the Fed now have that revenue. It is 100% new and they benefit. Perhaps there are other incidents where the HST benefited Mr. Harper. Lets face facts, he never would have granted 1.6 billion if he was not going to benefit even more.The HST was only a winner for business and does Esso really need extra revenue or do the people need to spent less under the PST system. I hope more comments can be made on this subject.

Other than charging an administration fee to collect and remit the 7% HST back to BC is there another fee or % they would be receiving? Or was the anticipation of extra revenues from a (supposedly) hot BC economy that would generate more tax revenues (income and sales)? thanks,Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35935973.post-61803085018591373522011-09-06T13:55:47.916-07:002011-09-06T13:55:47.916-07:00To the Anonymous person at 12;12pm on Sept6,2011. ...To the Anonymous person at 12;12pm on Sept6,2011.

Lets deal with the Restaurant Industy especially the workers. Is it not Labour dDay weekend.<br />Mr. Mozooki suggests the removal of 7% on food tax to the Restauant industy.I can see where that idea is of great value.I have talked about this plan with both the owners and workers.With the help of the Federal NDP, the plan can work.Required is the politcal will. Mrs Clark claims to support families first. Therefore, lets support these people. Mr. Harper must know that BC resident rejected the HST and must allow the return of the PST. He will still collect his GST.I as many others remark that this is a win win situation. Mrs Clark was willing to rise business taxes to pay for the reduction in the HST to 10%.Now general business tax increase and applied to this plan would be in order. Did business cry about their increase in order to lower the HST rate.The ball is now in the hands of Mrs. Clark. Please pratise what you preach. Readers, please supply your comments.

At the beginning, of course I returned to Bill's World because I still do not know which ex Leader was disgraced in the comments the person made mentioning Mr. Vander Zalm and his Mercedes Benz. I have owned such a vehicle. Model 300SLS that was worth 100 dollars but after an engine fire Mr. ICBC cut a cheque for $3000. I thank my Oak Bay Girlfriend for her skills in coning Mr. ICBC. Does that not show the liberals favourite the elite. If you do not believe me just quote your Email address and I will submit a copy of the sale tax form showing $100 and a year later the stub for $3000.My Oak bay girlfriend has a better idea. She states that I should turn the documents over to our MLA. I am so sorry I mentioned this factor. My only intention was regarding this disgraced ex. Now, I must stop commenting but will state if Mr. Vander Zalm has such a vehicle, more power to him. My next vehicle was a Jaguar.This comment is not relative but is the comment as to the vehicle driven by our hero Bill V. In closing I will state and please read this very carefully, Dumb people drive Smart Cars- Smart people drive MB or Jaguars.
