Abortion commentary is great, but I suspect it was primarily an attempt for the Conservatives to do damage control since it appears they are down in the polls and drowning in other controversies such as F-35s and Robocalls... Re: the HST I disagree with the 'lollipop' that us Islanders have apparently been enjoying...we've had the highest provincial tax in Canada (10%) for quite awhile now, so I hardly think we've been enjoying 'lollipop' tax rates...go West, where the non-renewable black gold is to find the Canadians that are enjoying the biggest lollipop tax rates in the country... I am mostly upset about books, cloth diapers, and school supplies being taxed, and home heating oil being exempted (while other sources that may be more sustainable are taxed). These moves basically suggests the Liberal Gov't does not care about children, learning/education, or the environment.Shannon Courtney https://www.blogger.com/profile/10736557098960554284noreply@blogger.com
