why we should keep voting for liberal and NDP?
how they are responsible in these years?

You do not need to vote for NDP, unions will and they will get at least 30% of the vote. If liberal only get 20%, because 10% gone to Green party or Conservatives. Who do you think will have the MAJORITY and govern BC for the next 4 years?

My logic may not be right and stand to be corrected.

生意至少減10％ 有人說要關門. 華埠部分店鋪吃HST苦頭                  
[2010-07-12]

圖文：本報記者徐嘉銘統一銷售稅（HST）本月1日在卑詩省實施以來，已經11天，溫哥華華埠有零售業者表示，HST讓生意至少下跌10%，甚至有商戶直言，不久就要結束營業。
華埠一家參茸海味行東主朱先生星期日拿出計算機按了幾個鍵，對本報記者說，以一盒價格77元的靈芝產品為例，在HST實施之前，連同5%的聯邦貨勞稅（GST），合共80.85元，現在則要付86.24元，兩者相差逾5元。
他說：「很多顧客一看到連稅價錢太貴，就不買了。這種產品以前每個月至少可賣出20盒，自HST實施至今，一盒都沒有賣出，只能繼續擺著。」
                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        華埠一些店鋪經營者表示，自HST實施以來，生意至少減少一成。圖為華埠市況。

朱先生指出，他們店內有些要收HST的成藥，基本上生意減少了至少20%，還好店內還有很多貨品，不必付HST，對生意的影響還是在可控制範圍內。
在華埠廣場內經營涼果生意的李先生，則因生意太差而萌生結業的念頭。他指出，華埠廣場從去年暑假，市府要求廣場內的空地不得擺攤之後，他的貨品都轉移到小小的店面，與另一賣日用品的印裔女商人合租，但生意較為清淡。
該位印裔商人表示，她曾有一天營業額僅35元的紀錄，平均每天也只有50元上下。李先生則很感慨地說，現在他自己很多時每天營業額只有20元。他提到，生意最好是6月底HST實施之前幾天，天天都很旺，但踏入7月以後，就很慘淡了。
華埠廣場內一化妝品店職員黃小姐表示，化妝品以前是GST和省銷售稅（PST）都要收，因為是兩個稅，老闆就只收5%的GST，另7%的PST就代客支付。
黃小姐分析，HST一次要收12%，老闆沒有辦法再吸收一部分，導致商品變貴，客人就不來了，HST實施前10天，生意至少跌了10%。她也對短期生意有起色表示不樂觀。

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  朱先生持計算機，計算HST實施後顧客需付多少錢。

Colin Hansen: HST comes with new tax credit and income tax relief By Staff

The following is an unsolicited letter on the HST from B.C. finance minister Colin Hansen that was sent to the Georgia Straight:
May 28, 2010
The Editor
We know introducing the Harmonized Sales Tax on July 1 will benefitB.C.’s economy and, at the same time, we recognize there will beadditional tax on some products and services.
That’s why we’re providing a B.C. HST Credit that will be paidquarterly to over 1.1 million low- and modest-income BritishColumbians. The annual credit will be $230 per family member forfamilies with incomes up to $25,000 and individuals with incomes up to$20,000. Individuals and families with incomes above these thresholdsmay be eligible for a partial benefit, for example, a family of fourwith income between $25,000 and $48,000 will receive a partial credit.Eligible British Columbians will receive the first HST credit paymentin early July, along with the BC Low Income Climate Action Tax Creditand the GST credit.
We are also providing income tax relief by increasing the basicpersonal amount tax credit to $11,000. This means up to $80 back in thepockets of individuals and up to $160 for those claiming spousalcredits. People earning up to $18,800 generally pay no provincialpersonal income tax. British Columbia has the lowest provincial incometaxes in Canada for individuals earning up to $118,000.
