Summary
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre vows to cut the federal budget for outside consultants by $10 billion annually if elected, aiming to return fees to levels seen under former Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Speaking in Surrey, B.C., he emphasized that increased government spending has fueled inflation, claiming current consultant costs burden families with over $1,000 in taxes. Poilievre’s plan includes cutting waste and capping spending to combat the rising inflation attributed to the Liberal government’s spending practices since 2015.
