2022 Conservative Party of Canada leadership election

In 2022, the Conservative Party of Canada held a leadership election to elect the successor to Erin O'Toole. He was removed on February 2, 2022, as leader by the party's caucus in the House of Commons of Canada by a vote of 73–45. Five candidates were running for the position, including former Cabinet minister and Member of Parliament Pierre Poilievre, former Cabinet minister, former leader of the Progressive Conservative Party, and former Quebec Premier Jean Charest, Member of Parliament Leslyn Lewis, Member of Parliament Scott Aitchison, and Ontario Member of Provincial Parliament Roman Baber. Former member of parliament, former leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario, and Brampton, Ontario Mayor Patrick Brown also ran for the position, but was disqualified in early July due to his campaign's alleged violations of the financial provisions of the Canada Elections Act. On September 10, it was announced that Poilievre won the leadership on the first ballot. This was the party's first leadership election since 2004 which resulted in a first-ballot victory. After the race, the whistleblower who alleged violation on Brown's campaign was revealed to have their legal fees paid by the Poilievre campaign. In addition, there have been reports that Patrick Brown's bid in the leadership race was a target of foreign interference from the Indian government, due to his affiliation with Khalistani-separatist groups based in Canada. In March 2025, The Globe and Mail reported that according to the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, Indian agents had done some organizing on behalf of Poilievre, though they did not have evidence that any senior Conservatives were aware.

Policies
Defence: Poilievre says he disagrees with putting a no-fly zone on Ukraine because he does not want to escalate the war. Poilievre says he and a government led by him will support Ukraine by bringing Ukrainian refugees to Canada, by providing weapons and aid to Ukraine, by placing sanctions against Russia's oligarchs and commodities and by supplying Europe with Canada's energy to help reduce Europe's dependency on Russia's energy. Economic: Poilievre plans to address inflation by eliminating budget deficits with a pay-as-you-go law, which would require the government to offset any new spending with a cut elsewhere. Poilievre says a government led by him will increase the number of independent audits done on the Bank of Canada and will ban the Bank of Canada from implementing a central bank digital currency. Poilievre plans on replacing the Governor of the Bank of Canada, Tiff Macklem with someone "who would reinstate our low-inflation mandate and protect the purchasing power of the Canadian dollar". Poilievre says he will defund the CBC public broadcaster. Poilievre disagrees with ending the supply management of dairy, eggs and poultry and he says that ending the system would be too expensive. According to numerous commentators, including the Toronto Star's Raju Mudhar, Justin Ling speaking on a podcast and writing in the Toronto Star, The Cord's Marina Black and the Toronto Sun's Brian Lilley, Poilievre has espoused conspiracy theories regarding the World Economic Forum for saying that he opposes their proposed "great reset" and for him saying "I'm against their proposals; I'm against their socialist agenda; I'm against the proposals they've made." and because he plans to ban ministers and top government officials from attending the Forum's annual summit. Environment and Climate Change: Poilievre says he would repeal Bill C-69 and Bill C-48. Poilievre says he would eliminate the federal carbon tax. Poilievre says his plans to address climate change will focus on green technology and will allow provinces to pursue their own approach to lower emissions without forcing them to impose a tax like the carbon tax. One of the technologies Poilievre says he will incentivize to lower emissions is carbon capture and storage technology and he will make it a requirement for energy projects to be more safe for the environment. Another technology Poilievre plans to incentivize is a larger production of electric cars by greenlighting more mining of lithium, cobalt and copper required to produce them. Housing: Poilievre plans to force big cities to speed up building permits and increase construction by 15 percent in order to continue receiving full federal infrastructure money, compensate smaller cities that build extra housing, and reduce the governmental costs required to build houses and apartments. Poilievre says a government led by him will sell off the under-utilized 15 percent of the government's 37,000 buildings in order to convert those buildings into affordable housing. Health: Poilievre plans to address healthcare shortages by ensuring provinces expedite the approval of professional credentials of certified immigrants to increase the number health care workers, such as nurses. Poilievre calls for the end of federal COVID-19 vaccine mandates and COVID-19 mask mandates and claims that they are based on "political science" for being enforced federally in provinces with no provincial mandates. Poilievre calls for the end of vaccine passports and says he will review and reexamine the Emergencies Act to prevent it from being abused for political purposes. Public safety: Poilievre opposes re-establishing the long-gun registry, and opposes the May 1, 2020 Order in Council ban on firearms. Social: Poilievre and his campaign promises affordable day-care and to expand day-care options for all parents but before he releases his policies for childcare Poilievre says he wants to wait and see if the Liberal's policies are any different than the Liberal's previous policies. Poilievre is pro-choice on abortion, and says a government led by him will not bring forward and will not pass laws to restrict abortion, but he will allow his party to have free votes on legislation. Poilievre plans to repeal Bill C-11 and the successor to Bill C-36, describing them as censorship. Immigration: Poilievre has described himself as pro-immigration and aims to speed up processing times to get jobs filled. Poilievre aims to negotiate with the provinces to have immigrants credentials approved within 60 days and be provided with study loans if needed.
