Having recently spent six weeks at a cancer lodge in Prince George, I was appalled to see that our governments have seen fit to charge GST and PST accommodation tax on patients using the lodge.

I feel it is disgusting to gouge the taxpayer this way. Some people at the lodge are literally facing the end of their lives and do not need this added insult.

Sincerely,

Keith Reed
