8:14Now PlayingEzra Levant of TheRebel.media follows up on BC's TransLink. Voters overwhelmingly voted against a tax hike to hand even more millions to this government transit system. But now there is a new chapter in the story.
Ezra is joined by Jordan Bateman of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, who led the successful anti-tax campaign. In the middle of the campaign, TransLink demoted CEO Ian Jarvis but they are still paying him his $400,000 salary. Meanwhile they're paying the acting TransLink CEO $35,000 a month! PLUS TransLink is advertising for a NEW CEO and that generous pay structure will stay the same. This is the same government monopoly that "needed" extra taxpayer millions?
