Conservative platform promises more than $100B in new measures over four years

  • On Tuesday morning in Woodbridge, Ontario, Pierre Poilievre, leader of the Conservative Party, unveiled the party’s comprehensive platform, which it terms the "Plan for Change."
  • The platform focuses on restoring public safety by repealing Commissioner's Directive 100, which it states allows male offenders in women’s prisons.
  • The platform includes proposals for $75 billion in tax relief and allocates $35 billion toward new initiatives, such as an additional $17 billion for defense spending between 2025 and 2029, alongside a commitment to construct 2.3 million new homes.
  • The platform mentions women only four times, mostly in an anti-trans policy, omits 2SLGBTQIA+ issues, and drew criticism from Queer Momentum for increasing risks to transgender women.
  • The platform aims to cut the deficit by 70 percent through bureaucracy reduction while promoting economic growth and meeting NATO's 2 percent GDP defense spending target by 2030.
