Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is promising a broad-based income tax cut that would lower the rate on the lowest income tax bracket to 12.75 per cent from 15 per cent.
In a news release ahead of a Monday morning news conference, he said this would save $900 a year for an average Canadian worker earning $57,000.
“Everywhere I go, Canadians tell me the same thing – life has never been more expensive. You’re working harder, but your work doesn’t pay like it used to, and it feels like you’re falling further behind,” Mr. Poilievre said in a statement. “Canadians deserve to bring home powerful paycheques for their families, and my 15% tax cut will do exactly that.”
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is promising to cut the lowest income tax rate by 15% if elected, offering a significant break to the average Canadian worker.
