An opinion poll by ThinkHQ Public Affairs finds 72 per cent of Albertans surveyed would vote against introducing a provincial sales tax if the idea was brought forward in a referendum.

Seventeen per cent said they would back a PST, nine per cent were unsure and two per cent wouldn't vote.

"It's overwhelming," pollster Marc Henry said in an interview Wednesday.

"From a political perspective, bringing in a sales tax would be the end of the Conservatives in Alberta."
