Tories Accuse Liberals of Plagiarizing Election Platform in New Brunswick

Progressive Conservative Leader Blaine Higgs claims the Liberals copied their health care plan, citing specific similarities and a linked document.

New Brunswick Progressive Conservative Leader Blaine Higgs made the plagiarism accusation during a campaign stop in Fredericton.
Higgs pointed out that both parties have similar pledges regarding health care, particularly in changing how doctors are paid.
He provided evidence of a Liberal document that included a link to a Tory news release about the incentives plan.
The Tory plan is estimated to cost $25 million, while the Liberals have not provided a cost estimate for their similar pledge.
Liberal Leader Susan Holt has not yet responded to the accusations.
