Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has announced a new tax cut proposal aimed at easing financial pressure on Canadians. Under his plan, the income tax rate for the lowest tax bracket would drop from 15% to 12.75%, saving the average Canadian worker $900 annually. Families with two incomes could see savings of up to $1,800 per year. Poilievre argued that Canadians are struggling as the cost of living rises, and this tax cut is just the beginning of a broader plan to make life more affordable.
Poilievre criticized the current Liberal government, claiming that taxes have increased under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, with families paying $10,000 more in taxes than they did before the Liberals took office. He also emphasized that his tax cut proposal is part of a larger strategy to create jobs, support local businesses, and strengthen Canada’s economy, especially in relation to American economic pressures. Poilievre’s goal is to restore Canada’s economic strength and ensure that hard work leads to financial security for all Canadians. His plan aims to put more money back in the pockets of Canadians and create a better future for families across the country.
