The last time the NDP were in power the personal tax rates in this province were 8.4%, 12.4% and 14.35% and an additional surtax at rates of 30% and 15% (of the provincial tax) making them some of the highest in Canada/North America.

The corporate tax rate for small business was over 5% and for big business was over 16%.

And those are just the provincial rates.

Compare that to today's personal rates of 5.06%, 7.70%, 10.50%, 12.29% and 14.70% without any surtax and 2.5% for small corporations and 11% for big.

Huge difference and there is no doubt that they will raise income taxes because that is what they do - always have, always will.
