Lower taxes for working people, not for billionaires
While others propose tax cuts for the wealthiest in our society, we willtake a different approach, putting more money into the hands of those who need it the most, and asking the ultra-wealthy and the most profitable corporations to contribute their fair share.
- Raise the basic personal amount to $19,500 to allow workers to earn more before starting to pay taxes.
- Lower the high-income BPA to best target these changes to lower-income earners.
- Double the Canada Disability Benefit.
- Put in place a 2% surtax on the most profitable corporations – those earning over $500 million in profits.
