So long Kelowna and B.C.

To the editor:
As I write this letter my family and I are leaving B.C..

Why? Well, I am sick to death of being taxed and taxed and, well, you get the point. So, I will say "So long" to Kelowna where I grew up and did my best to raise a healthy family while incurring a higher and higher tax load. Sunshine tax, ever increasing fuel costs (thanks Gordo), you name it. We can no longer afford to be living in "God's Country". Guess "God" has a huge expense account. I, however do not. Take care all. We are heading to Alberta where residents are not thought of as nothing more than numbers and cash bags or pawns for some politically correct cash grab.

So long Kelowna and B.C..
