NDP leader Jagmeet Singh delivered remarks on Monday as the official federal election campaign kicked off, pledging to target the "ultra-rich" and ensuring companies that “abuse the system" are "paying back their fair share."

"Instead of putting the burden on people, instead of putting the burden on workers, we are going to ask the ultra-rich to pay their fair share," Singh told reporters.

The NDP leader unveiled a blueprint for their platform on August 12, including a variety of promises like universal pharmacare, dental care, a $20 minimum wage and cancellation of student debt.

The 115-page document pledges a one per cent tax on households with fortunes topping $10 million and a temporary 15 per cent tax on large companies that enjoyed windfall profits during the COVID-19 pandemic.
