Any thoughts on what those measures may be?
God I hope they tax churches.

Being the party of fiscal responsibility they should levy a capital gains tax and a land value tax, a pair of low hanging fruit that would net a good chunk of revenue as well as cooling the housing market.
But of course they're never going to do that, they'll off load the costs of their tax cuts on the poors by hiking GST by at least 2.5%.
