Ideological war against big business sends wrong (and dumb) message - Vancouver Sun

City hall has no monopoly on bad ideas, but you don't have to delve too deeply into the agenda of any Vancouver city council meeting to find one.

Take, as a case in point, a motion last week by COPE Coun. David Cadman to ask the provincial government to create a new tax class for small business. The plan is to reward small business with a break on property taxes for, well, being small, while penalizing big business, with which Cadman and his ilk are engaged in perpetual, ideological war.
