A conservative think thank says Newfoundland and Labrador needs to cut personal income tax to keep medical professionals working here

CBC Newfoundland Morning

Newfoundland and Labrador has one of the highest personal income tax rates in all of North America. Conservative-leaning think tank, the Fraser Institute, says those high taxes keep medical professionals from working here. It says if the government wants to improve recruitment and retention in health care, it'll have to consider tax cuts. Alex Whalen is an analyst at the Fraser Institute, and spoke with CBC's Leigh Anne Power.
