The Manitoba NDP government is accusing PC Leader, Brain Pallister of misleading Manitobans about the economy.

Using findings from The Conference Board of Canada and former Bank of Canada Governor David Dodge, the NDP claim they have saved Manitobans $8.5 billion in taxes since first forming government.

In 2015 alone, Manitobans will save $539 million in personal inco

me taxes and $369 million in property taxes compared to 1999. If Manitobans went back to the PC government tax rates of 1999, they would pay almost $1 billion more in taxes than they do now.

The Manitoba NDP say they will stimulate the economy, grow exports, and create opportunities for Manitobans while continuing to keep life affordable for families.
