Poilievre says Tories will vote against capital gains tax hike, calls it a 'job killer'

"Jobs killer"

Oh no...you mean that money that was NEVER going to trickle down anyway will now NOT trickle down even harder? Whatever are we going to do!

Jobs killed: Landlords.

Success, methinks.

Squinty McProudboy opposes everything so it comes as no surprise he's against this.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said Tuesday his party will oppose the government's proposed capital gains inclusion rate increase — a tax hike that is projected to pull in roughly $19 billion in new revenue.

Weeks after the budget was tabled, Poilievre finally made his position known when he stood in the House of Commons to blast the Liberals' plan and their so-called "high tax agenda."

Poilievre's team also released a 15-minute social media video narrated by the leader to explain why the party is taking a stand against a policy that disproportionately affects wealthy people and big corporations.

The Canadian Medical Association has steadfastly opposed the inclusion rate increase, saying the tax hike will make primary care worse in a country where 6.5 million people already don't have access to a family doctor or nurse practitioner.

In his social media video explaining the party's stance, Poilievre said he doesn't support policies that could hurt the economy at a time when Canada's GDP per capita has slumped and growth has stagnated.

"With this tax hike, Canada's capital gains will be one of the highest in the advanced world so businesses, jobs and money will pour out of our country at an even faster rate," he said.
