“Many seniors today have the ca- pacity to stay in their own homes, but they find that rising property taxes and high maintenance costs can outstrip increases in annual income... you’re nodding, you’re right,” he said to the crowd. “Our goal is to bring down interest costs and put more money in the pockets of Canada’s seniors.” Ms. Longfield said she is also ex- cited about the MEANS plan, noting that it will help local seniors over- whelmed by soaring property taxes. “We want to do everything we can to keep seniors in their homes,” Ms. Longfield said, noting that as former Parliamentary Secretary of Labour and Housing she is all too famil- iar with the challenges seniors face. “Property taxes are regressive, they aren’t based on ability to pay. This will help take some of the pressure off seniors on fixed incomes.” Telling the audience that Ca- nadians are going to elect “one of two people” as their leader on Jan. 23, Mr. Martin took square aim at his Conservative opponent several times over the course of his speech, accusing Stephen Harper of oppos- ing national child care and a ban on handguns, and supporting tax breaks for the wealthy. The prime minister shrugged off suggestions that his party is lagging in the polls and questions as to how he might turn the campaign around. “The fact is we’re obviously in a nar- row race, the polls seem to indicate that we’re neck and neck,” he said. “I’ve been there before.” durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, JANUARY 8, 2006 PAGE 3 A/P Tamils meet with Conservatives Groups gather to learn more about the party
