Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says the province to provide tax relief for the construction of new homes
Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says the province is to provide tax relief for the construction of new homes and make it easier for people to build rental suites in a bid to address affordability.
“We want to do what we can to help those that are aspiring to home ownership and to augment, in fairness, some of the federal programs that have been brought forward,” Moe said. “We had a look at where the most significant need is in the province. Is it rental properties? And I will say that there is a need for that, but what we have found, significantly, is actually in the home ownership space,” he said.
Moe said the province plans to introduce a program that would provide “financial incentives” to low-income families.Leader Carla Beck said three long-term care homes are closing in Regina, but the government is not doing anything to keep them. Moe said the province plans to hire more staff and build more health centres to address long wait times.
Moe also plans to continue his fight with Ottawa over environmental policies he says would hamper the province’s economy.
