Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said seniors who choose to work after reaching the retirement age should not be penalized financially.

Poilievre’s latest electoral promise would see seniors allowed to earn up to $34,000 tax free, an increase of $10,000 over the current system which approximately has a $15,000 personal exemption and a $9,000 age credit.
