sign the petition on Apr 6 for no HST

Former BC Premier Bill Vander Zalm will launch the Fight HST citizens Initiative petition campaign to stop the Harmonized Sales Tax in BC Premier Gordon Campbell’s own riding of Vancouver-Point Grey on Tuesday April 6 at 7:30 p.m. at Kitsilano Secondary School, 2550 West 10th Avenue.
The public rally April 6 marks the beginning of the 90 days Fight HST has to collect the signatures of 10% of registered BC voters in each of the province’s 85 constituencies for the Initiative petition to be accepted by Elections BC, says Fight HST Lead Organizer Chris Delaney.

Vander Zalm says it was important to launch the campaign right in Premier Gordon Campbell’s own riding to send a clear message to the BC Liberal government.

“British Columbians don’t want Premier Campbell’s HST – not even in his own riding,” said Vander Zalm. “If Premier Campbell and the BC Liberal MLAs don’t listen to the people and drop the HST, he and his party are finished.”

The greedy BC Liberals are lured by the money offered by the HST, but it is actually pushed by the Federal Conservatives and a few provinces have adopted it? So far, I have not heard the Federal Liberals making a lot of noise about it and If at the end, the whole Canada come on board, how long can BC fight against it? Will we still have a good deal with money?

I would rather cut down on HST affected services(e.g. eating out) and save my money for shopping in HK/US.

Problem one:  Campbell already pre-spent the 1.6 billion funding.

Problem two:  A decent % of any fundings always go to Campbell's friends and family's pocket.

So, either way, we are screwed.
But we still need to show we know how to say "No' to Campbell, or else Campbell can do even more ass raping to us in the future. If there weren't any resistance for HST, Campbell would probably introduce another tax on top of HST.  BC citizens haven't really resist any ass raping, but it hurts too much now.
