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.

I already voted for Carney to lead the Libs, but I'll not be voting for him in the general election if he doesn't answer these ~~questions~~ issues three:

We need to see proportional representation. It will drive engagement, especially for this campaign.

We need to see a return to the days of the 1% and corporations paying their fair share, since they are the ones who most benefit from our systems and infrastructure.

We need an end to welfare for the 1% and corporations. We know what a balance sheet is, and so does Carney.

RCV is not categorically worse than PP.

They're the same thing with different shoes on. If you're referring to RCV vs. FPTP.
