The Tyee has been running an interesting feature on what British Columbian's have planned for their Carbon Tax rebate, arriving in most mailboxes this week if it hasn't already been invested around town.
Called Green Your Campbell cash, the project explores a number of options for those that just can't figure out what to do with an extra hundred dollars from the mailbox.
Among some of the ideas bounced around the Tyee website, from adopt a salmon fry to developing High school bike squads to just loading up on energy saving lighting British Columbians have a plan.
Northern BC has only come up with two ideas, one to protect the Sacred headwaters of the Skeena watershed, the other seeking contributions to yet another British Columbia political party, this one called the BC Refederation party.
Needless to say, despite any good intentions they might have, they're not finding a particularly successful run of it on the donation front, when it comes to spending our own tax dollars the prospect of turning it over to yet another political party isn't apparently going to wash.
You can examine the entire Tyee list here, maybe something will catch your eye, helping you decide how best to reinvest your rebate.
