Dear Editor,

Wow! Tax increases by stealth. Lowest personal income taxes in the country? NOT! This government really is number one in setting the bar as low as it can go.

A senior federal revenue official says, "British Columbia has traditionally utilized the indexing method for the basic personal amount. Effective Jan. 1, 2013, however, the amounts have been legislated without indexing. The amounts as stated in the T4127 have been confirmed as correct by the government of British Columbia."

Just wondering how this government was able to legislate anything, as Premier Christy Clark has not seen fit to call a fall session in the legislature.
