There is much truth in what you say. 

Essentially, the budget looks balanced, but we will all pay higher Hydro and insurance rates instead.  Even the writer of the story states that BC Hydro pays the provincial government almost half a billion dollars annually for the water that flows through their turbines. This is just a hidden increase in power rates in BC. 

Even so, I will continue to support anybody but the NDP.  I feel that the Liberals are the lesser of two evils, unfortunately.
