Alberta NDP promise to keep Canada Pension Plan
NDP Leader Rachel Notley says if her party wins Monday’s election, it would reconvene the legislature this summer to pass bills to lower costs for Albertans and close the door on the province quitting the Canada Pension Plan.
She said the flagship Bill 1 would implement measures to lower the cost of utility bills, reduce auto insurance, create tax credits for children’s activities, freeze tuition, implement $10-per-day child care and extend that program to before- and after-school care.She said the second bill would repeal Smith’s sovereignty act, which gives Alberta the power to direct its agencies to flout federal laws and initiatives deemed inimical to provincial interests.
Notley said Albertans have been clear in polls they don’t want the government to interfere with pensions and that Smith needs to make it clear where she stands. The UCP has promised a flagship bill promising that any future hikes to personal or corporate income taxes must be approved in a referendum.
