Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre proposed a new ethics law requiring candidates to disclose their tax payments for the past seven years and mandating cabinet ministers to divest from tax havens. He criticized Liberal leader Mark Carney for alleged conflicts of interest related to his financial holdings and lack of transparency regarding his personal finances, while Carney’s campaign defended him, stating he pays taxes in Canada and adheres to regulations. NDP leader Jagmeet Singh focused on healthcare promises for northern Ontario, as controversies swirl around the candidates’ ethical standards.
