By Alex Hemingway

As we face a severe housing crisis in Vancouver, the Squamish Nation is poised to add 6,000 new homes—mostly market rental housing—to its 11 acre reserve lands in Kitsilano.

A surplus at all costs? Balanced budget fixation hurts BC

Jan 20, 2020

By Alex Hemingway

Almost every year at budget time, BC governments of all stripes predict public coffers are going to be worse off than they’re likely truly expecting.

Happy new year—no more MSP!

By Alex Hemingway

It’s a brand new year, and BC’s Medical Services Plan (MSP) premiums are no more. That’s great news because MSP premiums were a very unfair tax (or “regressive” as we economists like to say). In its first budget (in 2018), the current provincial government announced it would phase out MSP premiums by 2020 and has… View Article
