Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre has vowed to reduce income taxes and completely eliminate the carbon tax if he becomes prime minister. Poilievre announced that he would lower the rate of the lowest tax bracket from 15 percent to 12.75 percent, resulting in a savings of $900 per person per year. He also took the opportunity to criticize the Liberal Party and its leader, Mark Carney. Speaking at a rally in North York, Ontario, Poilievre accused the Liberals of postponing the carbon tax at gas stations for only 30 days before the election, rather than fully repealing it. He emphasized that

Under his leadership, the New Democratic Party (NDP) is contesting its third election. This campaign comes at a time when recent polls show a decline in support for both the NDP and the Conserv

Liberal Leader Mark Carney will try to inject some Canadian symbolism and pride to his election campaign today with a stop in Gander, Nfld. Carney's chief opponents, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre and NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, will campaign in the seat-rich Greater Toronto Area. Canadian unity is key in all three major party pushes so far, as they seek to promote themselves as the best positioned to handle U.S. President Donald Trump's economic attacks and threats of annexation. The election will be held on April 28.

Canada's opposition leader, Pierre Poilievre, has suggested significant changes to the country's immigration policy if the Conservatives form the next government. Poilievre proposed a system that would prioritize inviting individuals who are needed and can be successfully integrated into Canada.

He also accused Mark Carney and
