Making Our Tax System Work for Everyone
Our tax system isn’t fair. Working families struggle to pay their bills. Meanwhile, big corporations hide billions in profits. The ultra-wealthy find ways to avoid paying their share. The Green Party will fix this unfairness. We’ll make sure everyone helps build our country’s future.
Making Big Business Pay Its Fair Share
Big corporations aren’t paying what they owe. Canadian families and small businesses pay their taxes faithfully. But big corporations use complex schemes and tax loopholes to avoid paying. This is especially true for big tech companies and banks. We’ll close these loopholes. We’ll make sure big corporations contribute to the services we all use and depend on.
Tackling Wealth Inequality
Too much wealth is in too few hands. This threatens both our democracy and our economy. We have a clear plan to fix this. People who have gained the most from Canada must give back more. We’ll change rules that let the ultra-wealthy pay lower taxes than working people.
Building a Better Tax System
Canada hasn’t updated its tax system since the 1960s. The world has changed. Our tax rules haven’t. It’s time for a modern, fair tax system. One that fits today’s economy. When everyone pays their fair share, we can build a better Canada. We can have better public services. We can have stronger communities. We can protect our environment for our children.
We have a simple goal: taxes that work for people, not profiteers. In the coming weeks, we’ll announce our new tax plan. It will put thousands of dollars back into working people’s pockets. This will be the biggest change to income tax in generations.
