The QLP believes that the current problems related to the rising cost of living are long-term, which justifies the tax adjustments. According to the Liberals, one-time assistance like the one offered by Coalition avenir Québec, which promised a check for $ 500 to all Quebecers, is not enough to allow taxpayers to adapt to inflation.

In return, the QLP issuing a 2% tax increase for those whose annual income exceeds $ 300,000.

The Liberal election platform opens with six chapters and one hundred pages. It is specifically about culture, identity, family and environment.
