Prince Rupert business refuses to pay taxes until water fixed

A Prince Rupert business is refusing to pay taxes until the city’s tap water is “safe”, and placed a sign in the front window publically stating the declaration on Sept. 28. At Hasami Hair Studio, some customers have said they do not want their hair washed because of the boil water advisory the municipality issued on Sept. 21, Jason Eleuterio, co-owner of the hair studio, told The Northern View. “If you notice, it’s kind of ‘slicky’, like greasy to touch,” Eleuterio said.
