Stop gouging the B.C. tax payer trying to commute to work to pay their taxes. Enough is enough, all levels of the government will never be satisfied with the amount the tax payer is taxed, the government will never have enough and will always be wanting more.
Tolls are just another hidden tax, in Canada we are taxed upwards of 55% and need to work till the middle of June for the tax man before making a single cent for our families.
Show all levels of government that you are serious about stopping their wasteful tendencies and their sell-outs to multinational corporations and their lobbyists groups.
Please sign this petition today supporting the abolishment of tolls on all B.C. highways and for the reduction of taxation on British Columbia families from all levels of government.
The momentum is undeniable. People have clearly had enough of these hidden taxes.

There is no reasonable transit alternative from Maple Ridge to Langley. 1.5 hours minimum commute each way. Yet I pay transit taxes, gas taxes, carbon taxes and now $150 a month for tolls? I have nothing left!

When you calculate annual tolls for a lot of commuters. an additional $1200 plus is a huge additional tax burden!! We need more accountability on Govt

I'd rather pay higher taxes for all the services I want than this continual, selective nickel and diming. There is no sense in having low taxes if you don't bring in enough for the services we need. I'd also like to see substantial, concrete penalties for governments who continually waste our precious tax dollars by hiring their friends and signing stupid contracts that rip us off!

Everyone in the province benifits from all our infrastructure. We should all pay. Tolls just let the politicians off the hook of creating the line item in thier budget.

I'm still trying to figure out why drivers have to pay 3 times in order to use a bridge. We pay Provincial taxes, gas taxes and the toll to use a tolled bridge. And why are gas taxes being diverted to transit instead of what they were intended for….roads and bridges.

WAC Bennet found out what the people wanted and ended tolls! What haven't those in power learned.
