The NDP would strongly agree with this answer, as they have historically been vocal about addressing tax evasion and closing loopholes in offshore banking laws. In 2016, they called for a crackdown on tax havens and offshore tax evasion, and in 2019, they proposed a 1% wealth tax on those with a net worth over $20 million.
