Why the fuck is translink getting 17 cents? Carbon tax and translink tax need to be scraped immediately, same with 5% HST why are we paying tax to the Government three times?

Fuck translink for taxing us that amount of tax...
Fuck translink for paying their board of directors with a 100% salary upgrade since few years ago...
300k salary is unacceptable...
Translink should be getting enough money from everything... such as bus fares, advertising, taxes and etc.

I'm in Abbotsford so driving down to Sumas isn't too bad. I bought a couple of jerry cans with me and got about 200L of diesel, about $40 savings. I wonder what they would say if I put 500L Tidy Tank in the back.

Lol at everybody raging on Translink for $0.17/L tax saying it needs to go away right away. Really think that will happen? Complaining about it on an online forum will do nothing. Go complain to your elected representatives, public hearings, etc etc.
On the other hand, I wonder how much tax money the gov is losing out on with the recent influx of people filling in the US.
