Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has announced a significant policy proposal regarding Tax-Free Savings Accounts (TFSAs). Under a Conservative government, Poilievre plans to allow Canadians to contribute an additional $5,000 per year beyond the current TFSA limit, provided the additional funds are invested exclusively in Canadian companies.

The current TFSA contribution limit is $7,000, adjusted annually to account for inflation. Canadians can hold a variety of assets in their TFSAs, including cash, guaranteed investment certificates (GICs), stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Presently, there are no restrictions requiring investments to be directed toward Canadian companies.

Poilievre is currently in British Columbia as part of his election campaign.
