Summary
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre announced that his party’s platform will be released on Tuesday, making them the last major federal party to do so ahead of the election. While criticizing the Liberal spending plan under Mark Carney, Poilievre seeks to position himself as the change candidate, with polls showing him slightly behind the incumbent Liberals. He aims to fund a proposed $14 billion income tax cut without cutting social programs, instead suggesting reductions in government consulting and foreign aid expenditures.
