The Guardian (Charlottetown, PEI) reports, “A new tax credit for Prince Edward Island residents could reduce the Confederation Bridge toll by 46 per cent and only cost the federal government about $2.5 million a year, according to a report by the federal parliamentary budget officer. The report was prepared at the request of P.E.I. Senator Percy Downe, who has been challenging his own Liberal government to reduce or eliminate the Confederation Bridge toll.”
