After two years of heated debate, many British Columbians are still confused about how to vote in the current mail-in referendum on the HST. The choice before them is to either keep the HSTwhich the government has promised to reduce to 10 per cent from 12 per centor restore the old PST/GST system at a total rate of 12 per cent.
