Philip Hochstein, President of the Independent Contractors and Businesses Association of B.C., called today’s referendum results a disappointment for the province and the construction industry.
“British Columbians lost a powerful economic tool this past Friday – one that was already creating jobs, increasing investment, and building the construction industry,” said Hochstein. “Now B.C. will hand back $1.6 billion to the federal government and spend millions to move back to an old, inefficient tax system with no benefits.”
