I don't think it's an outrage over the amount being spent. It's the fact that every time VV installs or makes a change to infrastructure "it will have little to no effect on traffic". Traffic has gotten progressively worse (anecdotally) since VV got into power.
NOW for ICBC, the liberals really are going to take this one on the chin but saying that the NDP is just a bunch of recycled clark era cronies as well.
The fact that ICBC cannot operate with some of the highest rates in the country is insane. Government should regulate the insurance business, but they shouldn't be in the insurance business, same can be said for the liquor business and anything else that private industry has done a reasonably good job administering and running. It is unnecessary expense and risk that the taxpayers shouldn't be exposed to when we could tax/levy all the businesses we are in to generate the same if not more revenue.
