Tax cuts are the wrong angle of attack.
The party calling for tax cuts doesn’t actually want prices to drop, their oligarch buddies need more profits and less taxes.
Though Carney already cut the capital gains tax. Kind of pointless to argue now, given the polls clearly no one cares.
Tax cuts makes everything get more expensive. Just look what happened in new zealand
Because the people receiving the cuts don’t have to think about words like “affordable.”
Carney canceling the planned tax increase on capital gains from 50% to 66% when he resumed parliament was plain wrong.
It was wrong but I also understand it for the moment as something that should be cut to draw in capital investments. Not saying it should never go back up, but it is something that should stay lower to reward those who want to invest capital in Canada and reap rewards of that investment.
Plus is disengenuous to say this as if the conservatives aren’t cutting it too, along with the entire carbon tax, the largest tax cut out of all the parties that will cost the government even more, and they will cut childcare, dental care and pharma care and the school food program… Because, y’know… They voted against it everytime

I don’t think you understand what disingenuous means when you bring up whatboutism. If the liberals make a bad choice you can’t just use the “what about the conservatives” cop out.
This reeks of the whole Gaza situation, but Canadian mild. Realistically, until our election process changes, those are our two choices. So our choices are: repeal the capital gains tax change and the carbon tax; or repeal those two plus a whole bunch of other things. You say whataboutism, I say the two practical choices we have at this juncture.
