LILLEY UNLEASHED: Time for Canada to chop the top when it comes to taxes
Things we can learn from the video
Press to jump
- 1:23Lilley proposes rewriting personal income tax brackets and lowering rates across the board.
- 2:59He proposes reducing the corporate tax rate from 15% to 10%.
- 4:08He calls for abolishing the surtax on banks and insurance companies.
- 4:42A proposed patent IP box would offer a tax incentive to keep intellectual property in Canada.
- 5:16He backs eliminating capital gains tax on money reinvested within Canada.
Toronto Sun gave Brian Lilley room to rewrite Canada's tax system, and he ended with an invitation to the prime minister: "So Prime Minister, here's my homework, please steal it."
The commentary was the most watched of the channel's 15 new uploads, reaching roughly 57,000 views. In "LILLEY UNLEASHED: Time for Canada to chop the top when it comes to taxes", Lilley argues that American midterm results won't resolve Canada's tariff uncertainty, so domestic competitiveness deserves more attention.
His proposals range from lower personal and corporate income taxes to incentives for keeping intellectual property and reinvested capital in Canada. The personal point behind the policy is straightforward: "We need to have a tax structure that rewards people for staying here." Several prominent comments take up the other side of that argument, asking how tax cuts would be accompanied by spending cuts.
The week's budget discussion nearly matched that upload's total and is drawing the strongest daily audience among the channel's active videos. In "BATRA'S BURNING QUESTIONS: Canadian reality doesn't match feel good vibes of Liberal budget", editor-in-chief Adrienne Batra joins Lilley and Lorrie Goldstein to argue that the budget missed an opportunity. Lilley's immigration commentary supplies another substantial part of the week's viewing.
Across the catalogue, Toronto Sun brought in about 1.5 million views, close to CBS Boston's weekly audience, while fellow Canadian outlet CP24 had a larger week. Toronto Sun's subscriber count was unchanged, and daily views are slightly below their usual pace. Taxes, the budget and immigration give this week's uploads a distinctly domestic focus, even with Washington in the background.
