Re: "Taxes set to rise an average of $137 for Surrey homeowners," the Now online.

Can someone explain to me what planet our local politicians come from? Homeowners are constantly faced with increased taxes to support the grandiose pet projects of our mayor and council.

Enough is enough. And, oh yes, once they have our last pennies, it’s into the trough head first to give themselves another raise. Why? Because they work so hard at raising our taxes.
