Mandatory tracking being proposed. Even with guard rails, I'd rather not have that data be collected.

Also, can't they determine our locations already based on which cell towers you're connected to? Why is this needed?

Carney we should not be joining the #NAZIs we should be punching them in the nose! Stop trying to appease tRump, tell him to Fuck Off!

Why do I keep saying that landowners are the ones that should pay higher taxes?

It's because it doesn't make sense to me that land ownership should be respected for "not paying into the system".

Like, if you want to play this silly game that little boys play of territorialism in elementary school playgrounds, where they draw imaginary boundaries, then by all means do so.

But for people who didn't consent to it, you gotta have a good reason why the respect for imaginary boundaries should be enforced.

To make it really easy: don't tax improvements; just land ownership.

The Reddit comments regarding the following post are calling out how it is absolutely fair that BC assessment has reclassified Big Bang Cider's land use as "light industrial", but I don't think land use should be taxed more.

Just land occupation should be taxed, and nothing else.

(Of course, I'm probably the "anti-tax (except land)" equivalent of marxists: I'm probably missing nuance.)

The owner of Big Bang Cidery in Nanaimo says a recent notice from B.C. Assessment has put his farm in a legal grey area that could increase his taxes significantly. However, the agency cites specific reasons for changing how it's classified part of the property.
