The Dartmouth North Liberal Association is proud to see some of our members serving with the Neighbourhood Watch. The next monthly meeting is set for June 18 at Farrell Hall on Windmill Road.
The only highlights from this budget are Liberal ideas.
Liberals know that life needs to be more affordable for Nova Scotians right now. That’s why we are going to keep on advocating for a cut to the HST to keep more money in your pockets because it’s never been more expensive to be a Nova Scotian than under Tim Houston.
| February 12, 2024 Our AGM began last night and to kick-off the weekend, I made an announcement. A Liberal government under my leadership would lower the HST from 15% to 13% – the lowest sales tax in Atlantic Canada. No one has benefited from inflation except for Tim Houston. His Conservative government has received an additional $3.4 billion on the backs of Nova Scotians, and we believe it’s time to give some of that back. Cutting the HST would save Nova Scotians hundreds of dollars each year, leaving more money in their pockets to spend on necessities like household items, phone bills, auto repairs, and school supplies. |
