Just finished declaring all my Vancouver Empty Home Tax declarations and now I’m hit with an even larger tax declaration in the form of the BC Speculation Tax. Which not only covers my properties in Richmond but Vancouver for a second time. In reading the pamphlet that comes in the mail along with the declaration it states that "over 99% of British Columbians are exempt from the tax". My question is then why are we doing it and has the tax done what was promised 3 years ago when it was introduced?
