CTF Launches No Tax Hike Campaign

A new campaign getting underway today by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation to urge the Alward government not to raise taxes in the 2010-11 budget.

Kevin Lacey, Atlantic Director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation says the massive spending binge that has gone on over the past five years, the government should cut spending and not raise taxes.

David Alward has said that he doesn't want to raise taxes and will balance the budget on spending cuts.

The campaign includes a petition drive asking New Brunswickers to oppose tax increases. The petition can be found at http://www.taxpayer.com/atlantic/no-tax-hikes-2011-budget.
