For anyone not keeping up, BC is about to have a election in 2 months. The current opposition party/previous incumbent party is currently polled to be almost completely wiped out in the election by the BC Cons. so this seems like a go for broke maneuver.

A B.C. United government would eliminate the provincial income tax on the first $50,000 earned by every British Columbian, Leader Kevin Falcon announced Tuesday.

The move would save British Columbians an average of $2,050 a year each at a time when people are struggling to afford the rising cost of living, Falcon said.

The tax cut would cost the province $5.4 billion in tax revenue, B.C. United says.

    Lol. Last gasp of the dying BC liberals. IMHO Krusty Clark and her accomplices can’t shake their past embracing organized crime at BC casinos.

    Even rebranding can’t save them because we know.

    They might cut taxes and put tolls back on bridges like they did last time?
