I do not think so. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5996540\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Canada has never seen such a huge inequality. The Liberals brag about having lowered taxes for the middle class, but the wealthiest middle-class Canadians are the ones who benefit.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5996541\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Yesterday our leader presented an ambitious plan to finally reduce inequality that would make the richest 1% pay a 1% wealth tax on wealth over $20 million. We would reinvest these billions of dollars in the services that people truly need. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5996542\" data-originallang=\"fr\">When will the Liberals make ultra-rich Canadians pay their fair share?</p>",
