They took the tolls off so now everybody gets pay for them instead of the people that chose to buy cheaper real estate and commute.Toll bridges are free now. Isn’t that enough??
BCL built those damn bridges and put a hefty toll on ‘em. NDP made them free for us. Communities in the valley should show their gratitude in the next election.
But .... hold on. Price of crude is going up everyday. our carbon tax, gas prices, $10/day daycare, Uber, Site C. Where did all the good jobs go to then??
Won’t be need more electricity if we are all supposed to switch over to electric cars instead of using fossil fuels??NDP claims they we are too far into it now, so it must be completed.
I Definitely agree we need more alternate fuel sources. I just don't believe we are getting enough of it here for our 12 billion dollars. I don't know who did the original estimating, but they are pretty much doubling the budget on this one, and that's not acceptable!Won’t be need more electricity if we are all supposed to switch over to electric cars instead of using fossil fuels??
yeah this^^^^
Seems like some Folks don’t mind paying 2.5 times what they were told they would. Myself, I’ve got a problem with that.
If throwing good money after bad is a sign of things to come this Province is in real trouble.
Nice sentiments, only if you could stop the population growth on this planet. What are the alternatives you’re talkin’ about? Wind farms? Solar farms? Nuclear? Thermal? Who has the expertise in this province to deliver those projects and do it on time/within budget?Catching the right tides, winds I often sail early mornings 2 am etc... Passing a few miles from Van, Victoria, Nanaimo and all along this coast every city is lit up like a Griswald christmas tree. Conservation insistence on not just lit up cities but in every aspect of power use could vastly decrease consumption. Destroying a pristine wilderness with Site C is unthinkable in the context of alternatives.
We didn't even need that power it was just a cash gift to his friends. We had Burrard thermal power plant in case of a low water year that ran on you guessed it Natural Gas. That dirty stinking poluting Natural Gas. Now we want to Liquify Natural Gas ship it to China at the taxpayers cost (watch your Hydro Bill} and we will call it clean because China would otherwise burn coal. Thats what site C is all about and we get to pay for all of it. On this file Horgan inherited a stink bomb.Remember Gordon Campbell's Clean Energy Policy? The contracts he did with the Independent Power Producers - Run of River projects? We are paying the owners of IPP's approximately 500 million to 1 billion a year over the going private rate for hydro power, and that is going to happen every year for the next 50 plus years! Campbell could have easily bought the power from Washington state for a fraction of what we are paying. Don't forget ICBC and how the Liberals stole billions out of the corporation and drove it into into the ground, just so they could say they balanced the budget - and yet people are still brainwashed into thinking the BC Liberals are the best money managers! Here is 200 pages of how the Liberals have screwed us over the years.....https://www.scribd.com/document/346759081/May-I-take-your-order-please
So you call him horrible???....... .
Don't forget about Christy's $400 million leaky umbrella, the 1 Billion cost overrun on the Convention Centre, the billion overrun on the ice bomb bridge, the debt free LNG wet dream, the billion dollar communication system that doesn't work, the massive deficit at ICBC and BC HYdro among others might be part of the reason that crew is gone.
