In the election, Canadians called for change to bring down costs and put more money in their pockets. Canada’s new government promised to deliver this change, starting with a middle-class tax cut on Canada Day.
The Prime Minister, Mark Carney, announced that as of July 1, the government’s middle-class tax cut will be in effect. This tax cut will save a two-income family up to $840 a year and generate tax savings for 22 million Canadians. By reducing income taxes, Canadians can keep more of their paycheques to spend where it matters most.
The government is focused on bringing down costs, keeping communities safe, diversifying trade, and building one Canadian economy – the strongest in the G7.
