NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says his party will help the Liberals get legislation to create a temporary GST "holiday" introduced and passed in Parliament. But he says it will only do so if they separate it from their promised $250 working Canadians benefit which Singh says should be distributed more widely.

There is growing pressure on the federal government to expand eligibility for its new $250 rebate plan that was announced last week alongside a 'tax holiday' for Canadians.
