Dear Editor:
The transit system is severely broken thanks to the Liberal government appointment of the board of directors.
First of all, before another taxpayer dime goes to TransLink, abolish the current board and give no compensation of any sort to them unless they are willing to go before the cameras and not hide behind any spokesperson and tell the public why taxpayers should fund any kind of their pension/compensation.
Next, do a full audit of the money that was siphoned to the always poor TransLink.
Next. It’s time for the provincial and federal governments to give back some the tax money they gladly took from us every time we filled up – especially the feds as they charge a tax on top of a tax
Pay anyone, especially all levels of politicians, no more than $12,000 to be on the board as they are already being paid by taxpayers and there is no need for them to double dip.
Allan Jang, Burnaby
