PPC People’s Party of Canada has the boldest policy platform in the 2025 Federal Election to grow the Canadian economy. Canada has been in economic decline since the turn of this Century. 2005 to 2015 minimal GDP growth 1.4% and 2015 to 2025 1.3% GDP growth. Starting at the top, PPC plans to cut and right size the Federal Government from the current 35 ministry departments down to 18 ministry departments. This needed reform will automatically cut wasteful spending and reduce costly unnecessary regulation (red tape) that is choking our economy. According to the Treasury Department there were 367,772 federal employees 2024. A 43% increase since 2015 under a liberal government. The Conservatives voted for the liberals massive covid spending, and new unconstitutional programs that intrude on Alberta’s provincial jurisdiction. That increased our federal debt to $1.4 Trillion from $640 Billion thus bloating the size of our federal government. Of the G35 countries Canada has the costliest government at 62% per person of GDP. PPC pledges to lower the cost of government to the G35 average of 24% per person of GDP by 2030.
PPC will create a new Department of Government Downsizing within a new Ministry of Electoral Reform, Rightsizing Government and the Senate. Eliminate the deficit and balance the budget within a year of taking office. By drastically cutting budgets and eliminating wasteful programs like corporate welfare, foreign aid, equalization payments, the Canada Infrastructure Bank, the Strategic Innovation fund and all other programs that duplicate provincial programs or intrude on provincial jurisdiction.
PPC government is committed to giving full autonomy to the provinces and granting the provinces control of revenue collections and disbursements to help reign in Federal wasteful spending. With the provinces controlling the budgeting process and monetary allocations to the federal government. PPC will enact balance budget and debt control legislation on the federal government to focus spending on core federal jurisdictions and responsibilities.
PPC Cutting Red Tape is a major priority of the People’s Party. Currently our economy is plagued by costly and excessive regulations that can be felt through our whole economy top to bottom costing approximately $15 billion annually.
PPC is fully committed to major tax reform both corporate and domestic to drive investment here in Canada. Taxes plain and simple are a wage cut and an economic investment deterrent! In the end creates a lower living standard and collapses business investment.
PPC will eliminate all corporate welfare in favour of one flat corporate tax rate in Canada to attract resource industries, tech industries and bring manufacturing back to Canada. Corporate Tax Rate of 15%. PPC has pledged NO Capital Gains Tax. NO Carbon Taxation. NO Tax on Overtime Work. Lower Personal Income Tax, only 3 tax brackets. NO Tax on CPP and EI.
