Reply to my e-mail re Hospital Capital Funding in lower mainland !


Response from Minister of Finance
CC: "Minister, HLTH HLTH:EX" <HLTH.Minister@gov.bc.ca>
Thank you for your email of October 31, 2006, regarding hospital charges to the municipal taxpayer on their property tax bill. I understand that my colleague, the Honourable George Abbott, Minister of Health will be responding to your letter. I appreciate you sharing this information with me.

Sincerely,
Carole Taylor
Minister

Don Quixote Note:MY OPEN E-Mail sent to Min. of Finance, Min. of Health and Tom Christensen 10/31. No answer yet !
Could you please confirm that as a property tax holder in Vernon I have the distinct pleasure of helping the province to pay for hospital capital equipment costs (at a 40% rate I believe) through my property taxes and I can look forward to helping to pay for the hospitals in the larger lower mainland cities through my Provincial Income taxes? Is this what we in the HEARTLAND refer to as another Sunshine Tax?

hope you can get a response from our MLA as well. Wonder if it might be the same as from Abbott-they should lock him up in a monastery!
