Eby defends plan to tax the rich as health care dominates campaign
Original: Eby defends his plan to tax the rich as campaigns tackle health care crisis https:// fed.brid.gy/r/https://globalne ws.c
David Eby, British Columbia's premier, is defending his plan to increase taxes on the wealthy as his campaign focuses on the province's health care crisis. The proposal, which would see higher taxes for top earners to fund health care spending, is drawing attention as rival parties challenge Eby's approach and campaign debates increasingly centre on hospital staffing, emergency room closures and access to family doctors.
Why now: Taxing the rich to fix health care is a contentious proposal in an ongoing election campaign, drawing both support and criticism
