Subhead:“Taxpayers shouldn’t be on the hook for outrageously expensive vehicle leases,” said Carson Binda of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.# Senior British Columbia bureaucrats are billing taxpayers about $370,000 a year for executive vehicle leases, with average monthly costs higher than what many luxury and hybrid vehicles currently lease for, according to records obtained through freedom of information requests. The Canadian Taxpayers Federation says the average monthly executive lease cost is about $1,103. For comparison, the group says a 2026 Range Rover Evoque Dynamic SE leases for about $843 a month, a 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 SUV for about $574 monthly, and a 2026 Toyota Corolla Hybrid LE for about $394 a month. Alert B.C. Bureaucrats are billing taxpayers for luxury vehicle leases. Executive leases cost taxpayers an average of $1,100 per month for senior gov staff. A 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 SUV leases for half that— $574 monthly. Tax hikes for you. Luxury for insiders. pic.twitter.com/iuBVyCLFQF — Carson Binda (@BindaCarson) April 21, 2026 That means the average government-paid lease is roughly $260 more per month than a Range Rover Evoque, nearly double the cost of a Mercedes-Benz GLA 250, and almost triple the price of a Toyota Corolla Hybrid, based on the federation’s calculations.
