Fact Check. You are increasing the alcohol excise tax by 2% with zero debate in Parliament. The only "relief" here is that the excise tax increase is not even higher.
A tax increase is still a tax increase. Stop the spin and misleading wordplay.
Canadian gas prices are nearly 20% higher than in the U.S. because of Liberal taxes on gas.
And Mark Carney's Liberals plan to raise them even higher.
Put ZERO tax on gas to save all drivers 25 cents-a-litre at the pump now: https://t.co/n5sYnbfWBD
This NDP-Liberal government is hiking taxes on beer, wine & spirits on April 1.
It's no joke. They're forcing you to pay more just to enjoy a drink.
Sign to stop their tax hike: https://t.co/NQakMihvUa
@GlobalBC I would like someone to explain to me why a single person with no kids and one income should have to subsidize childcare with my tax dollars for parents with two incomes. They chose to have children and should bear the responsibility! @MitziDeanBC @Dave_Eby
@nota_baby@ABDanielleSmith I agree. Hopefully, @Dave_Eby doesn’t ban #AlbertaBeef because I for one, would miss it.
However, I wouldn’t be surprised if some British Columbians boycott Alberta beef in retaliation.
@GlobalBC Have you seen the poor condition that the Queensborough Bridge is in? If so, you would know the traffic has increased substantially. Not to mention the long lines to cross backing up throughout Queensborough creating anarchy on the roads! @Rob_Fleming

@GlobalBC First taxpayers give drug addicts free drugs & now they are going to receive money to get clean? I am glad this is privately funded. Hopefully, it is never taxpayer funded. Offering them money won’t make a difference. Likely to relapse. The will to change has to come from within!
@GlobalBC@TransLink should be self-sufficient by reducing services on lesser used routes, charging by distance on skytrain instead of zones, getting rid of executives & their ridiculous wages & bonuses, reducing staff in general, etc. Subsidies from drivers & taxpayers needs to stop!
Again with Davis!!! He can’t get a yard over and over again! @BCLions need to leave VA in on 3rd and 1 or use Evans. A 14 point swing and likely Davis will cost them another win and no chance of finishing first.
@BCLions Me too! 3rd and 1 seems to be a problem with Dom Davis in there. That’s two costly turnovers early in games (Hamilton and vs Winnipeg) that changed the momentum and the Lions never recovered from either. Time to try Evans or keep Adams in there.
@BurnabyNOW_News Not a surprise, I actually think the number is higher.
If hotels weren’t so ridiculously expensive the short term rental market wouldn’t be so lucrative.
And then there is the greed of the landlords who are making more money from short term rentals - increase the license fee!
@DailyHiveVan Universities and colleges should be required to have a minimum number of rental units available for domestic students and also for foreign students. A percentage of total enrolment for each. That would definitely help the long term rental market.

@KamilKaramali Maybe if hotels rooms weren’t so ridiculously expensive, Air BnB wouldn’t exist. How about asking government to regulate what hotels can charge? Then, some of the short term rentals might be available for long term renters.
What’s up with so many women wearing a nose ring in recent years? Are they running out of places to put jewelry? Toe rings were ridiculous, but this beats it. Are they purposely trying to make themselves look unattractive?
