Golden Finance reports that Pierre Poilievre, a popular candidate for Canadian Prime Minister, expressed his support for cryptocurrencies and DeFi. Previously, in 2022, Poilievre invested in the Purpose Bitcoin ETF, demonstrating his commitment to digital assets, although his current holdings have not been disclosed. . His campaign platform includes creating favorable regulations for crypto businesses and treating crypto assets as commodities for tax purposes. Poilievre opposes the implementation of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and supports Bill C-400 to regulate CBDCs while advocating for Canadians’ rights to use Bitcoin and other digital assets. Since 2004, Poilievre has advocated for less government intervention, greater economic independence, and the vision that Canadians can escape inflation through the use of cryptocurrencies.
