Coquihalla privatization fail fuels Liberal backlash
In British Columbia the Liberals face anger over a proposed tolling plan for privatizing the Coquihalla highway. Critics say tolls would last 55 years, subsidize other routes, and that construction costs were repaid long ago. Transport Minister Judith Reid claims voters don’t understand the plan as the government spends over four million dollars on studies and ads to push it. The backlash highlights a broader disconnect with heartland residents and local leaders.
