1.5 cents / L increase...
The increase from the current 17 cents per litre has already been approved by Victoria to help cover transit upgrades as part of the region’s 10-year improvement plan.
The mayors reluctantly approved Phase 2 of the transit plan, and have decided to explore their options for coming up with the $30 million annual gap. Some of them, like Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese, says the NDP government is backing out of a $30 million commitment to Phase 2 while others are angry the province only told local mayors it had chosen this increase as a funding option this week.
The gas tax wouldn’t be implemented until 2019.
Here we go again... tax the people to death.
