Pierre Poilievre is making his Conservative leadership debut in the House of Commons today.

Poilievre's first questions all demanded the government cancel the carbon price and stop increasing what he calls "payroll taxes" like Canada Pension Plan and employment insurance deductions.

Poilievre became the third Conservative leader since 2015 after cruising to an easy victory in the contest that ended September 10th.
