On September 23 NDP was projected to take 56 seats (down from the 60 Sep 3).  Last I looked it was 50.  I hope to f-ing gawd, this doesn't go sideways because there will not be another coalition government with the Greens. 

They Liberals already started talking about scrapping the speculation tax and I'm sure the empty home tax would soon be on the chopping block too.  For almost 4 years we had stagnated prices.

If it does, it will be self inflicted.

The Liberals are talking about a flipping tax where properties are resold before they are even finished. I’m OK with that. I do think there are some issues with the speculation tax when it comes to second homes and recreational properties. I don’t think it should apply to full time BC residents.
