What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

During the British Columbia election campaign, the B.C. Conservatives offered a $1,000 tax cut for working British Columbians. Lorne Doerkson stated this would be achieved by raising the basic personal income tax exemption level from $13,216 to $32,000. The NDP countered that the tax-cut vow would create a $2.5 billion hole in the B.C. budget.
