Carney May Be Better Than Poilievre, But Serious Issues Remain

In perhaps his most disappointing policy announcement thus far, Carney has indicated he will scrap the Liberal's plan to increase the capital gains inclusion rate. This mildly progressive measure was directed squarely at the passive incomes of the wealthiest sliver of Canadians and would have served as a healthy revenue generator. Instead, it's destined for the scrapheap.

There will always be issues to address. There is no such thing as a perfect candidate regardless of the global political climate at any given time.
Is Carney perfect? No, but he is our best bet right now by a staggering margin.
