Income tax bobble for taxpayers

 
By Rosalind Russell – Income tax cuts are the first shiny bobble being dangled in front of Canadians this election campaign.  

Liberal leader Mark Carney has announced a reduction in the lowest income tax bracket from 15 to 14 per cent.  

It’s a move he says would save two-income families up to $825 a year.  

Yesterday, the federal Conservatives promised a deeper cut — from 15 to 12.75 per cent on the lowest income tax bracket.  

Leader Pierre Poilievre says the average Canadian worker would save up to $900 a year — and double that amount for two income families.  

Election Day is April 28.
