HALIFAX – On the third day of the Nova Scotia election campaign, the three major political parties focused on affordability.

Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Houston announced Tuesday that if his party is re-elected to a second term it would remove the tolls on the two bridges that span Halifax harbour starting April 1. His promise comes days after he pledged to cut the harmonized sales tax by one percentage point, to 14 per cent, also beginning the first of April.
