		<description><![CDATA[29 per cent BC Hydro rate increase a hidden tax on consumers: Macdonald. Tuesday’s BC Liberal budget contains an unfair and hidden tax on consumers by forcing at 29 per cent increase on BC Hydro ratepayers, says Columbia River – Revelstoke MLA Norm Macdonald. “The BC Liberals have found a new way to tax the average citizen that they hope you will never notice,” said Macdonald. “Buried deep in this week’s provincial budget is a requirement for BC Hydro, a crown corporation, to provide an extra $254 million to government this year alone, and the only way for BC Hyrdo to do that is to increase hydro rates.”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Behind the Wheel -- It's been a surprise to many people over the years, but you don't have to be actually driving a motor vehicle when your ability to drive is impaired by alcohol or a drug to be convicted of that offence. Simply being able to set the vehicle in motion, engine running or not, may be enough for a conviction because you have care and control of the motor vehicle while you are impaired. If you are impaired, the best advice that I can give in most cases is to stay out of motor vehicles.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It would seem that at least two people are happy with Colin Hansen’s ‘stay the course’ budget – Mr. Hansen himself and John Pankratz, FCGA, the President of the Certified General Accountants Association of British Columbia (CGA-BC). Mr. Pankratz believes that this budget will help the province emerge from the global economic crisis. “While there are no new major initiatives, this is a budget that is based on prudent financial management and sound economic principles that will benefit small- and medium-sized business. And that's good for British Columbia, which is good for you and me," he says.]]></description>
