This morning at a plastics plant in North York, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre announced his party’s proposed Canada First Investment Tax Cut.
The idea is that when property or businesses are sold that the capital gains could be entirely reinvested tax-free if invested in Canada.
That plan “would make this country boom”, said Poilievre. He gave examples of how land sold for housing development would help with the housing crisis, and that reinvesting in a company’s technologies would produce more economic independence in Canada.
“Investment moving back over the border into Canada,” is part of the plan, said Poilievre at the podium.
All this further investment would “be like rocket fuel” for the Canadian economy.
“The last 10 years have been about the Liberals. The next 10 years need to be about you,” said Poilievre during his press conference.
