VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - Not even the spectacle of the Olympics can make B.C. voters forget about the HST.

The B.C. Liberals still trail the NDP in the polls, according to the latest Angus Reid survey.  Gordon Campbell's party has gained two points since the fall, but still lags eight points behind the Opposition.

The Harmonized Sales Tax is getting a lot of the blame, with nearly nine out of 10 voters doubting the government will use HST revenues to fund healthcare, as promised.
