On December 4, 2015, Governor General David Johnston delivered the Speech from the Throne that reiterated the new Liberal government’s pledge to cut tax rates for middle-income earners.

Earlier today, the Minister of Finance announced further details, including plans to cut taxes for the middle class, raise taxes for the top one per cent and roll back the TFSA contribution limit to $5,500. MD is currently looking at these changes and the potential impact to clients. An update will be posted later this week
