This is a good thing and for those of us who drive electric vehicles this is something that we expected and in a way hoped for. Everybody has to contribute. Both our vehicles are electric and I would imagine our province will follow suit soon enough.

Seriously?! Do you also pay your user fees for online purchases that don't charge sales tax? Why would you willingly send good money after bad? :)

:) Heh Heh. I suppose. But there is an impression that we EV drivers have a free ride because of course we don't buy fuel. How they spend it is out of our control but I think its important to pitch in with everybody else.

We are well travelled and have seen many countries where taxes are very low. None of them are places I want to live. :)
