The Lead Organizer of the Fight HST campaign says he has not seen any evidence showing the BC Conservatives are changing their position on the controversial tax. But Chris Delaney, who's the former Deputy Leader of the party, says if that is the case, he would change allegiances as well. "If it turns out the federal Conservatives that are joining the party are going to try to orchestrate or move the party towards a pro-HST position, I would have nothing to do with the party at that point," says Delaney. BC Conservatives First Vice President Mischa Popoff tendered his resignation, saying it appears the party is changing its position on the harmonized sales tax. Popoff cites secret meetings between the party's leadership and Federal Conservative MPs to water down their position on the tax.

What is the difference between getting a current sales receipt of 7% PST & 5% GST and after July 1/10 the sales receipt is 12%?
There maybe a few new items that will attract PST in the HST, but it isn't a world crisis.
The savings of $18,750,000 per year in the reduction of 250 swivel servants in Victoria with the HST, will cover the interest on $750,000,000. That is a good start.
