The tax was originally BC wide and due to a lot of conflict they exempted certain regions.

But anyway, the attitude that because it doesn't affect you its ok to do is a bad policy. We're taxing people with vacation homes in places where only a vacation home makes sense which is ridiculous. It kills the market in these areas and will turn them into ghost towns.
