Are there any more details for this?
We will freeze income taxes for the 98.2% of Ontarians making under $220,000 a year.
Are we talking just increasing top bracket, more brackets, wealth tax?
Remind me, how was Doug Ford going to pay for that $100 billion highway?
Gutting and stripping every single public service and government asset and selling it off to the first person that asks.
And then giving the money to his pals.
Essentially conservative basics 101.
By cutting healthcare and extensively fining anyone who owns a bicycle.
Ontario’s NDP and Liberals are both pledging tens of billions of dollars in new spending to pay for their campaign promises, but are taking different approaches to the other side of the ledger, with the NDP proposing wealth taxes and the Liberals eyeing “efficiencies.”
Sounds like more austerity and tax cuts from the libs. They really want the cons to win I guess. Hopefully they aren’t thinking about some sort of department to oversee these efficiencies…
I’m all for higher taxes on the very wealthy.
If people gave a shit about where the money is coming from, Doug Ford would be tanking in the polls as he has obviously impossible to fund proposals. Whatever the parties say in their funding blurbs just serves the purpose of telling their potential voter base what’s going to happen to their taxes. In the end, the money always comes from debt and that’s OK. So reality tells me funding proposals aren’t what wins or loses elections. The efficiencies proposal is great because it works just like it worked for Ford. It’s nebulous, it allows for saying you’re doing it while not achieving anything with it. Therefore it allows for not doing austerity in reality.

It has a certain ring to it.
