Rustad announced they will start with a $1500/month tax rebate for rent and mortgage, increasing each year by $500/mnth to eventually max out to $3000 per month month tax rebate on rent and mortgage.

What kind of a tax refund is NDP promising on rent and mortgage so people with jobs keep more of their own money?

This isn't a socialist policy - in effect it just transfers wealth from the province's coffers to current land owners (who benefit from the payout a lot less than renters would).

Socialism for the wealthy and nothing for most of us.
