Who voted this guy in again and did they get a smack in the head? So oil is at an all time low and has been steadily decreasing for the past month so why the hell are we still paying crazy prices? New Brunswick’s government stepped in and lowered taxes on gas to help out their people. What does ours do but keep gas prices jacked up to line their already overflowing pockets further.
Has anyone even noticed all of the other taxes that have gone up since this troll got voted in? Marriage licences, driver’s licences, dog registration, you name it. This tyrant researched every nook and cranny possible where he could jack up the taxes, as if we weren’t paying enough already. Sure Nova Scotia has a surplus after budget time, but where the hell do you think it came from? THE HARD WORKING NOVA SCOTIANS who can barely breathe with all this damn tax, tax, tax. Will he give it back to us by lowering the taxes or what about the double tax on gas?? Maybe stop fixing each and every sidewalk in HRM and ACTUALLY PAVE A STREET TO FIX THE HOLES?? Or what about – you might need to sit down for this – paying off some of Nova Scotia’s debt?? His wife left him, can you blame her? Who wants to be associated or even better yet married to such an evil tyrant? This guy is either a complete idiot without a clue or Ebenezer Scrooge. My guess is that he counts his millions every night and laughs himself to sleep. Why aren’t there protests in the street? Or people being angry at how screwed over we are by this corrupt little dictator? Why do you think everyone is moving out of Nova Scotia? This guy is the biggest mistake ever made. Our province would be better run by Mickey Mouse.

It is called greed, they did vote in favor of a 20% pay increase, remember? Gas prices, I hate regulation, we get screwed every week. The market prices fall and we get stuck with higher prices but if it goes up then the interrupter clause kicks in… Take last week, the price should have gone down 2 cents but INservice NS didn’t lower it. I sent an email calling out Jamie Muir on this (he is clearly not following the legislated formula to “calculate” the price), 6 days later and he still doesn’t have the balls to reply to my letter. I guess this goes to show you what the MLA’s think of the taxpayer once they get in office.
Don’t even get me started on that mealy-mouthed little twerp. He’s simply trying to keep the legacy of John Buchanan alive and well. Take that fucking Democracy 250 horseshit – to a sweet tune of over $9 million bucks, our tax monies basically wasted to keep two ex-Premiers employed and treated like goddamn kings. Meanwhile, there are people in this province struggling to pay for the bare necessities and/or going hungry. This little dick is spending like there’s no tomorrow because he knows fucking well he doesn’t stand a chance in hell of getting re-elected. He doesn’t even have the balls to keep the Legislature open for more than a few weeks at a time. Fucking little coward.
Not to be a spoilsport, but Rodney has no say over fixing potholes in the HRM.
You guys are idiots. Not that I agree with the premier but the surplus had to do with crown share transfer money from the federal governement. And with gas this week NS dropped and NB went up, now who got screwed, not NS which excluding taxes has one of the lowest prices in Canada, and I am not for lowering taxes, I believe that gas taxes should be even higher and the money used to fund enviro friendly programs. If gas taxes are cut everyone will pay with reduced programs, increased income tax, or a deficit. This is like asking everyone to help suplement the price of your gas, not everone drives so taxing gas directly is the best thing to do. Stop complaining and drive less fucktard.
