Please sign and (re)share this important petition! Abolish MSP Premiums in BC! British Columbia stands alone -- the only Canadian province to charge head-tax-like premiums for health care coverage! A regressive tax disguised as MSP Premiums that only serves to help balance the budget not for our medical services. Christy Clark says “It’s antiquated, it’s old, and the way people pay for it generally doesn’t make a whole ton of sense.” Yet with her newest "changes" to the MSP Premiums it shows a new $111 million in new taxes for British Columbians! After the premium assistance is accounted for makes it an increase of $77 million in revenue. We want wholesale changes and equity in taxation. Please help spread the word, share this petition and please write to the government officials Join us today and write to Christy Clark premier@gov.bc.ca letting her know that you want MSP Premiums abolished in BC! Tell our Minister of Health, Terry Lake terry.lake.MLA@leg.bc.ca that we want progressive taxation policies applied to this broken system. The opposition has been silent in their platform on MSP. Write to John Horgan oppositionleader@leg.bc.ca and ask his party what are they going to do regarding this cash grab! Together we can make wholesale change and make health care fair to ALL British Columbians! Here is a poster to put up on your local community bulletin boards http://bit.ly/msp-poster Thank you to all who sign and share this petition! If you live outside of BC and want to support us, please share!
