Well, fuck. That's income I could have really used. This negatively affects people living in poverty the most, and benefits the affluent the most. This better come paired with some kind of financial break for low income earners.

I feel like this signals that Carney is willing to cast aside his principles and throw uninvolved people under the bus so that he can meet his priority goals. Ie, getting ignorant swing voters on his side. This is a blatant campaign move that should have been an election promise, not a unilateral decision.

I believe he did promise this before he was elected as head of the liberal party.

Edit: Yes he did
