Columbia was the best place to live in Canada, it had a stellar social welfare system and truly cared for its citizens.
Now it is 30 billion in debt and the only provincial corporation remaining is BC Hydro, the others having been sold to US interests. We have the
lowest standard of living in the country with the highest living costs, and womens rights are almost non-existent. We had our Premiers offices raided
for evidence of corruption but never saw anything come of it, even though he's been proven to have given massive handouts to corporate buddies. As
mentioned in the article, the only thing the HST will benefit will be corporate interests.
Not even touching on the fact that all 3 political parties in the country are essentially the same, with only slightly different facades presented.
They all represent corporate interests above the interests of the population, they all vote themselves the same things no matter how much they
"argue" against them (Case in point: the NDP accepting a ludicrous pay raise in BC not even 6 months after hanging the Liberals out to dry for even
suggesting it).
I mean, I know Canada is viewed as some sort of perfected Nirvana by Americans, but we certainly aren't holding up well right now. We honestly just
as messed, we just live in a culture of happy censorship where no one talks about the problems. 2 flags and no insightful comments?
