Over 68,000 + British Columbians want wholesale change not more red tape!
Another BC Liberal budget that rewards the wealthiest British Columbians at the expense of hard-working families!
A decade ago, taxes paid by businesses (corporate tax, resource royalties) was 18% of provincial revenues, today they will only contribute 12% to provincial revenue!
In this year's budget, MSP premiums jumped again to bring in $2.6 billion. For the first time, they brought in more revenue than royalties from forests, natural gas and mining combined.
The latest scheme in the MSP Premiums has more British Columbians paying unfair and unequal portions of their income and it must stop!!
Please feel free to send a message directly to the Premier via the BC Health Coalition
http://www.bchealthcoalition.ca/what-you-can-do/scrap-msp-premiums, and let them know how you feel about MSP Premiums.
Thank you to all of you that have signed and (re)shared this very important petition!
Together we can make change and have a more progressive and equitable approach to funding our health care system which would be a positive step in addressing poverty and income inequality!
