Should the 1% PST cut have been a priority for the Province?

 

That’s a question raised by Flin Flon MLA Tom Lindsey in the Legislature earlier this week.

 

Lindsey said that most decision from the Pallister Government have negatively affected Manitobans, and that voters will remember that when the next election is called.

 

The NDP MLA said that the government will be remembered for living up to one promise at the expense of another.

 

Lindsey went on to say that people will know that in order to cut the PST they abandoned people.

 

He said that they “don’t care about people”, and that when he’s knocking on doors before the next provincial election he will be reminding northerners that the Pallister Government doesn’t care about them.

 

Lindsey added that the government needs to start focusing on people instead of money.
