OTTAWA, ON: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation applauds Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre’s income tax cut, which will save a two-income family up to an estimated $1,800.

“Poilievre is providing significant tax relief for people working hard to make ends meet,” said Franco Terrazzano, CTF Federal Director. “The best way the government can make life more affordable is to let people keep more of their own money and Poilievre’s tax cut would do just that.”

Today, Poilievre announced he would cut the lowest income tax bracket from 15 to 12.75 per cent. Poilievre estimates this would save a two-income family up to $1,800.

“We will free up money for this tax cut by eliminating waste, cutting bureaucracy and consultants and capping spending with a dollar-for-dollar law,” Poilievre said.

Poilievre’s tax cut is more than double the income tax cut promised by Liberal Party Leader Mark Carney.

Carney announced he would cut the lowest income tax bracket by one percentage point. Carney estimates that would save a two-income family up to $825.

“It’s great to see the two major parties dueling over who can cut taxes the most and Poilievre is providing twice as much income tax relief as Carney,” Terrazzano said. “Now we need to see big tax cuts for Canadian businesses to make them more competitive in the wake of American tariffs.”
