Job training

Introduce a Canada Training Benefit, giving workers money to help pay for training, provide income support during training, and offer job protection; Create a Canadian Apprenticeship Service, supported by up to $10,000/apprentice, over four years, for every new position created.

To give apprentices more certainty and more opportunities to gain work experience, we will move forward with creating the Canadian Apprenticeship Service, in partnership with provinces, territories,employers, and unions.

We will give full- and part-time students up to $1,200 more per year, through increased Canada Student Grants, and will give students two years after graduation to get started in their career before they need to begin paying off their student loans, interest-free. We will also change the rules so that graduates won’t have to start repaying their loans until they make at least $35,000, and if their income ever falls below this level, their payments will be put on hold.

To make it easier for parents to focus on their families rather than their debt, we will allow new parents to pause their student loan repayments, interest-free, until their youngest child reaches the age of five. New parents who have graduated but haven’t yet finished paying off their student loans will also get to hit pause until their child turns five.

Additional compensation will be offered to provinces and territories that do not participate in the Canada Student Loan Program.

To help families with the high cost of care, we will also lower child care fees for before and after school programs by 10 per cent across the board.

More than a million families will benefit from these lower fees. For an Ontario family of four with two kids, it will mean about $800 back in their pockets,every year.

We will also move forward with more support for our early childhood educators, to ensure that across the country, they are better paid and trained to take care of our kids. This means lower tuition costs for people getting their early childhood education degree, and extra help to cover the costs for early childhood educators seeking further training.

And to ensure that every parent – no matter where they live – has access to quality, affordable childcare, we will work with provinces and territories to create a national secretariat that will lay the groundwork for a pan-Canadian child care system.

To make using zero-emission vehicles easier, we will move forward – in partnership with industry and communities – to install up to 5,000 charging stations along the Trans Canada Highway and other major road networks, and in Canada’s urban and rural areas. Northern communities, as well as apartments and condominiums, will also be included – connecting people and communities from coast to coast to coast.

As more and more people buy zero-emission vehicles, there will be a growing market of used vehicles for sale. To make buying a used zero-emission vehicle more affordable, we will expand the incentive that already exists for buying new zero-emission cars.

This will provide a 10 per cent rebate on a used zero-emission vehicle up to a maximum value of $2,000.

To help communities transition to using more zero-emission vehicles, we will require that new federal investments in public transit are used to support zero-emission buses and rail systems starting in 2023, and will work with municipalities to address any exceptional circumstances.

Working in partnership with the provinces and territories, we will also move forward with a new fund to help more school boards and municipalities purchase 5,000 zero-emissions school and transit buses over the next five years.

Introduce a $200 credit for every Canadian child turning 12 to be used to access cultural venues and Canadian content; Increase funding for Telefilm Canada by nearly 50%/year; Introduce a new Cultural Diplomacy strategy to promote Canadian culture to the world;

introduce the Culture Pass, a $200 credit that every Canadian child will receive when they turn 12, to be used to access theatres, museums, galleries, workshops, and other cultural venues and local Canadian content;

continue to support Canadian film by increasing annual funding for Telefilm Canada by nearly 50 per cent a year;

review our national museums policy to make sure that people can access Canadian history across the country, with better access to digital collections; and will move forward with making the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Heritage Centre into a national museum

introduce a new Cultural Diplomacy strategy, with at least one international mission each year to promote Canadian culture and creators around the world; and

move forward, in our first year, with legislation that will take appropriate measures to ensure that all content providers – including internet giants – offer meaningful levels of Canadian content in their catalogues, contribute to the creation of Canadian content in both official languages, and promote this content and make it easily accessible on their platforms.

Camping

Expand the Learn to Camp programme, making it possible for 400,000 kids each year to learn basic camping skills; Give 75,000 less privileged children and their families an up to four-night trip to one of Canada's national or provincial parks.

To give every Canadian child the chance to learn how to camp by the time they reach grade eight, we will move forward with expanding the successful Learn to Camp program. This will make it possible for 400,000 kids each year to learn basic camping skills.

To make sure that our National Parks are accessible to all families no matter their economic circumstances, we will also move forward with giving 75,000 less privileged children and their families an up to four-night trip to one of Canada’s national or provincial parks.

This will include camping accommodations and a travel bursary of up to $2,000 so that families can more easily afford a once-in-a-lifetime trip to more national parks, like Banff, Forillon, Gros Morne, and the Cape Breton Highlands.

We will also partner with VIA Rail to make these opportunities accessible and affordable for more families.

Child disabilities

Immediately double the Child Disability Benefit.

Children & maternity

Boost the Canada Child Benefit by 15% for children under the age of one; Make maternity and parental benefits tax-free; Introduce a 15-week leave for adoptive parents.

We will also move forward with Guaranteed Paid Family Leave – an ambitious program that will make sure that parents who don’t qualify for paid leave through Employment Insurance, or who don’t get enough because they’re between jobs, earn little, or haven’t worked enough hours, will receive a guaranteed income during the first year of their child’s life. This will be especially helpful for women, who typically carry more family responsibilities, and will mean that every single Canadian parent will be able to afford to spend the first year at home with their child, when it matters most.

Residents of Quebec will receive a comparable benefit for the portion of federal taxes they pay aspart (sic) of the Quebec Parental Insurance Plan, and we will ensure that Guaranteed Paid Family Leave is integrated effectively with Quebec’s provincial parental benefits system, which the province will continue to run itself.

Consumer protection

Introduce a new Canadian Consumer Advocate as a single point of contact for people who need help with banking, telecom, or transportation-related complaints, empowered to review complains and impose appropriate penalties.

Official languages

Modernize the Official Languages Act; Make Radio-Canada's mandate for regional news part of the Act; Make Air Canada provide fully bilingual services; Review and strengthen powers of the Commissioner of Official Languages; Appoint only bilingual judges to the Supreme Court.

To protect and promote the rights of minority-language communities, we will move forward with:

modernizing the 50-year-old Official Languages Act, including making Radio-Canada’s mandate for regional news part of the Act, and making sure that Air Canada provides fully bilingual services to its customers;

reviewing and strengthening the powers of the Commissioner of Official Languages;

appointing only bilingual judges to the Supreme Court of Canada; and

undertaking an enumeration of rights-holders and a thorough post-census survey to better account for – and better serve – minority-language communities.

Canada’s two official languages should be reflected not only in institutions but in the ability of people to speak and understand each other in both languages. To encourage more people to learn a second language, we will move forward with:

working with the provinces and territories to ensure that all Canadians can access secondlanguage (sic) programs, like immersion, in their local schools if they choose to do so;

new investments to help train, recruit and attract teachers in both immersion and second-language programs, based on new targets set by the provinces and territories;

developing and promoting new opportunities for language and cultural exchanges; and

investing an additional $60 million to help build the infrastructure that supports strong minority-language communities, including schools and cultural centres.

And to help the more than 600,000 Francophones in Ontario better access post-secondary education, we will move forward with the province to help establish the Université de l’Ontario français.

Seniors

Increase the Old Age Security benefit by 10% for seniors when they turn 75; Create a national definition of elder abuse, invest in better data collection and law enforcement, and establish new penalties.

Taxation

Make sure that people don't pay federal taxes on the first $15k they earn; Undertake a review of government spending and tax expenditures to ensure wealthy Canadians do not benefit from unfair tax breaks; modernize anti-avoidance rules; crack down on loopholes.

undertake a new comprehensive review of government spending and tax expenditures, to ensure that wealthy Canadians do not benefit from unfair tax breaks (a similar review, which we committed to in 2015, identified more than $3 billion a year that could be reinvested in the middle class);

moderniz e (sic) anti-avoidance rules to stop large multinational companies from being able to shop for lower tax rates by constructing complex schemes between countries;

crack down on corporate tax loopholes that allow companies to excessively deduct debt to artificially reduce the tax they pay;

introduce a new 10 per cent tax on luxury cars, boats, and personal aircraft over $100,000; and

make sure that multinational tech giants pay corporate tax on the revenue they generate in Canada. We will also work to achieve the standard set by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) to ensure that international digital corporations whose products are consumed in Canada collect and remit the same level of sales taxation as Canadian digital corporations.
