Victoria, B.C.- Premier Gordon Campbell has passed along his best wishes for all to have a great B.C. Day.

"British Columbia Day is an opportunity for people all across the Province to spend time with their family and friends, and to remember and celebrate all the things that make British Columbia the Best Place on Earth.

"We are fortunate to live in a province of unparalleled natural beauty with communities that are among the most vibrant and multicultural anywhere in the world.

"Last year was our province's 150th anniversary and we celebrated a century-and-a-half of achievement, growth, and success.

"This year, we look forward to the 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games, when we will welcome the world to British Columbia to experience the richness and diversity of our culture, people and communities. The Games are an incredible opportunity to build our economy, showcase our province and create new growth here in B.C.

"As we celebrate British Columbia Day, let's celebrate our history as well as our future, looking forward to the 2010 Games, and a revitalized spirit and economy here in British Columbia."

Thanks Mr Campbell for the HST. Im sure that you will let us all know how much it will cost us per year, and how much revenue the Province will rake in as a result of this tax.

I can hardly wait for a man of your honesty and integrity to give us the info.

And thank you also for the Carbon Tax.
