Dear [INSERT NAME HERE],

I am writing to express my very strong objection to the proposed HST implementation. At a time when taxes should be cut to spur economic growth I simply cannot believe that this is even being considered. The Liberal party didn’t tell the truth, they didn’t consult and they don’t have a mandate to bring in the HST. This will have a direct impact on just about everyone’s wallet, and will also have an effect on the tourism, restaurant and housing industries, to name just a few. To add insult to injury, it was very clearly stated that HST was not being considered before the election; to now go ahead with implementing it a few months after winning the election is unconscionable, especially in light of the detailed report from the BC Progress Board that was presented to Gordon Campbell 5 months prior to the election.

I hope that you will take the necessary steps to ensure that this unfair tax is not implemented.

Sincerely,
