Ottawa, April 21, 2025 – As the final week of Canada’s federal election campaign kicks off, Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre announced that his party will release a fully costed election platform tomorrow, addressing growing calls for transparency on how his proposed policies will be funded.
Speaking at a rally in Toronto today, Poilievre emphasized that the Conservative platform will offer “real solutions” to combat inflation, reduce taxes, and lower the cost of living for Canadians. “Canadians deserve to know how every dollar will be spent and saved. Our fully costed plan will be public tomorrow,” he told supporters.
The announcement comes amid rising pressure from rival parties, especially the Liberals and the New Democrats, who have already released detailed breakdowns of their fiscal plans. Critics have accused Poilievre of delaying key details, especially concerning his pledges to cut federal spending and overhaul housing policy.
With polls showing a tight race between the Conservatives and Liberals, the release of the costed platform could play a pivotal role in influencing undecided voters. Political analysts say the document will likely be scrutinized for its feasibility, especially amid economic uncertainty and public concern over healthcare, affordability, and climate change.
Poilievre has positioned his campaign around the theme of economic freedom and government accountability, pledging to “put Canadians back in control of their lives.” He has also vowed to eliminate what he describes as “gatekeeping bureaucracy” and focus on job creation and energy independence.
As Canadians prepare to head to the polls, tomorrow’s platform release will be closely watched by voters, economists, and political opponents alike.
