Prime Minister Mark Carney signed a symbolic order signalling his government will prioritize passing his promised middle-class tax cut, following the first in-person meeting of his cabinet on Parliament Hill Wednesday.

    I think that increasing the basic personal exemption would have helped a lot more lower income Canadians

      Yes, but functionally no one voted NDP this year, and that was their pitch, IIRC.

        Wasn’t it also the CPC plan?

          The CPC had a plan?

            My bad, it was to lower the rate on the lowest bracket. https://www.conservative.ca/poilievre-to-cut-income-tax-by-15-for-the-average-canadian/

            I don’t know what Carney has planned, but a middle class tax cut could be this.

            Edit: It is, but going from 15% to 14% instead of Poilievre’s proposed 12.5% https://globalnews.ca/news/11180306/liberals-budget-middle-class-tax-cut/

      It may yet be part of things: a promised cut to middle class taxes should infer inclusion of the poorer.

        One would hope so, but I won’t hold my breath.

        why do they say it’s for “middle class” if it’s for poor people?
