Hi John,

Politicians in Ottawa are about to use your money to take another raise.

A backbench member of Parliament’s annual salary is currently $194,600. A minister collects $287,400, while the prime minister takes home $389,200.

And on April 1, MPs are giving themselves another raise.

The CTF estimates this year’s pay raise will be an extra $8,100 for backbench MPs, $11,900 for ministers and $16,200 for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

The raise will bring an MP’s salary to about $202,700. A minister will collect $299,300, while Trudeau will take home $405,400.

You will be paying for their fifth raise since the beginning of 2020. Not even a pandemic, lockdowns and sky-high inflation kept MPs from rubberstamping their own raises.

And then they sent you the bill.

MPs can stop the raise, just like they did between 2010 and 2013 following the recession.

They need to know millions of Canadians like you don’t support another MP pay raise.

Will you sign our PETITION calling on all MPs to stop this MP pay raise?

Thanks for fighting for taxpayers – it’s making a difference!

All the best,
