Is Singh going to come in to say he wants a quadruple cut? Stay tuned apparently, because he apparently got caught offguard.



Singh you clearly knew you had an election coming to prepare for, and you don't have a plan? No wonder the NDP is in complete shambles with such a rudderless leader at the helm.

On the bolded...that's such a stupid way of looking at it. That's not how tax brackets work. Percentage wise someone making 500K will see a very negligible benefit to the lowest bracket percentage being changed as that person pays most income at a much higher tax bracket. The impact of lowering the percentage of the lowest bracket has a much more significant impact to someone making 57K or less. That's the whole reason why lower tax brackets are lower percentages and why we have a base 15,705$ with 0% before you have to pay tax (that everyone enjoys, mind blown).

Does Singh even understand what the heck he stands for anymore? He's completely floundering.
And as pointed out in the quote, his proposed GST cut on essentials....also benefits the wealthy?
