It's more than odious, especially when you think the BC Socred/Liberal coalition is your best bet.  If you like walking around with the smell of this government's dog doo on your shoes ever day then vote for them.  It's only going to get worse.  Take a look at your Hydro bill and ask why the government has demanded a $375 million dividend from Hydro (money Hydro has to borrow to pay the government) and the $470 million the province charges the crown corporation for water use, water running through the turbines to produce electricity and returned back intact to the river?  Who do you think pays for this $845 million?  And then there's the $9 billion Site C dam which will only produce 1100 MW whereas the natural gas fired Shepard Energy Centre outside Calgary is producing 800 MW for only $1.4 billion.  Who is going to pay for this poor business decision?  And you think the NDP is worse?
