With the furor over the government’s proposed tax changes dominating debate in Ottawa, the Conservatives have started going after the personal finances of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and other cabinet ministers, arguing it shows hypocrisy. The Conservatives have gone all-in on attacking the tax changes since Parliament returned from its summer break on Monday, devoting nearly every question during the daily House of Commons question period to it. “He confirmed that he will not be affected by the tax changes he claims are intended to make wealthy Canadians pay more,” Scheer asked. Trudeau has said he’s never personally used any of the private corporation tax-sheltering strategies the government is planning to restrict. “I was not involved in the discussions related to the tax changes,” she said.
