Reducing the Cost of Living
Between the massive increase in the cost of housing, the nearly 10% annual increases from NB Power, and the rising cost of food and other necessities, New Brunswickers need action from their provincial government.
According to Statistics Canada, average rents in New Brunswick increased 34.2 per cent in the last four years - among the highest increases across Canada.
Premier Higgs’ policies are taking more money from workers’ pockets, allowing costs to climb higher, and putting less of our public funds into the public services and infrastructure New Brunswickers need. We deserve a government that will address the financial pressures facing workers and their families.
