Seniors tax freeze on hold - Published Wednesday November 24th, 2010

Alward gov't delays promised property tax freeze until 2012

Cécile Cassista, executive director of the Coalition for Seniors and Nursing Homes Residents' Rights, said it appears that the Alward government is moving away from the original platform.

"That says to me that there's a shift in what they're going to do," she said.
But she is pleased that the government is going to consult with stakeholders on the file before proceeding.
