Ezra Levant of TheRebel.media reports on a victory for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation -- and BC taxpayers in particular. Jordan Bateman spearheaded the grassroots effort to defeat the referendum that would have seen taxes boosted to support for the TransLink system. Mayors, unions and other powerful individuals and groups spent millions trying to get the tax approved, but in the end, the Canadian Taxpayers Federation spent much less (only $40,000!) and won the vote by almost two to one.
