The narrative: Despite the recent attention paid to the topic in the U.S., crypto is not a major electoral issue during this year's Canadian election. Neither leading Prime Minister candidate has campaigned on the topic, but here's how they've discussed the issue in the past.

叙述：尽管最近对美国的话题引起了关注，但加密货币并不是今年加拿大大选期间的主要选举问题。首相候选人都没有在这个话题上进行竞选，但这是他们过去讨论这个问题的方式。

Why it matters: Canada infamously saw massive crypto exchange collapses over the past few years, leading to concerted efforts from its provincial regulators to enact guardrails on the digital asset industry. While exchanges like Coinbase are calling for policies like a Canadian government task force or a bitcoin reserve, so far the leading candidates for Prime Minister seem to have other issues on their minds (namely: U.S. relations and trade, housing and the economy).

为什么重要的是：在过去的几年中，加拿大臭名昭著的加密交易所崩溃了，导致其省级监管机构的一致努力为数字资产行业制定护栏。尽管Coinbase这样的交流呼吁制定加拿大政府工作队或比特币储备等政策，但到目前为止，总理的主要候选人似乎在他们的脑海中遇到其他问题（即：美国的关系和贸易，住房，住房和经济）。

Breaking it down: When Canadians go to the polls on Monday, they'll be selecting their preferred candidate for Member of Parliament in their local riding (district). The party with a majority of seats will form the country's new government, and the leader of that party will become the new Prime Minister.

分解它：当加拿大人周一参加民意测验时，他们将在当地骑马（地区）中选择他们首选的议会议员候选人。拥有大部分席位的政党将组成该国的新政府，该党的领导人将成为新任总理。

While the Conservative Party and its leader Pierre Poilievre held comfortable leads in polling averages through late-January 2025, the Liberal Party saw a massive surge in popularity after U.S. President Donald Trump announced tariffs with Canada (and most other countries). The Liberal Party, now with leader Mark Carney, has held a significant edge ever since, according to both polling data and Polymarket. Carney took over from former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as leader of the Liberal Party last month.

当保守党及其领导人皮埃尔·波利维尔（Pierre Poilievre）在2025年1月下旬的投票平均值方面保持舒适的领先优势，但自美国总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）宣布对加拿大（以及大多数其他国家）的关税，自由党的受欢迎程度大大增加。根据民意调查数据和多聚市场，自那以后，现在与领导人马克·卡尼（Mark Carney）的自由党一直保持着重要优势。卡尼上个月从前总理贾斯汀·特鲁多（Justin Trudeau）接任自由党的领导人。

Pierre Poilievre

石头

Poilievre is a longtime Bitcoin and blockchain advocate who has led the Conservative Party since September 2022. He owns shares in a Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF). In 2022, he promised to turn Canada into the "blockchain and crypto capital of the world" during a campaign speech (a phrase Trump later used on the 2024 campaign trail).

Poilievre是一位长期的比特币和区块链倡导者，自2022年9月以来一直领导保守党。他拥有比特币交易所交易基金（ETF）的股份。在2022年，他承诺将加拿大变成竞选演讲中的“区块链和加密之都”（特朗普后来在2024年竞选活动中使用的一句话）。

"I want to take control of money away from politicians and bankers, and give it back to the people," Poilievre said. "We need to give people the freedom to choose other money. If the government is going to abuse our cash, we should have the right to opt to use other, higher-quality cash."

Poilievre说：“我想从政客和银行家那里控制金钱，并将其交还给人民。” “我们需要给人们选择其他钱的自由。如果政府要滥用我们的现金，我们应该有权选择使用其他高质量的现金。”

He even bought shawarma using bitcoin during his campaign for Conservative Party leader, discussing digital assets in a 30-minute interview with the owner of the restaurant.

他甚至在为保守党领袖的竞选活动中使用比特币购买了Shawarma，并在与餐厅的所有者进行了30分钟的采访中讨论了数字资产。

He supported Canada's trucker protest, which dubbed itself the "Freedom Convoy" in early 2022 to object to a vaccine mandate for any truckers crossing the U.S.-Canadian border. At the time, the Canadian government sought to freeze financial support for the protestors, including by sanctioning crypto wallets tied to the truckers.

他支持加拿大的卡车司机抗议活动，该抗议活动在2022年初称为“自由车队”，以反对任何越过美国加拿大边境的卡车司机的疫苗要求。当时，加拿大政府试图冻结抗议者的财政支持，包括制裁与卡车司机绑定的加密钱包。

While Poilievre does not appear to have specifically linked Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies to the truckers who may have lost banking access, he did call bitcoin "the single most important asset you could own."

虽然Poilievre似乎没有专门将比特币或其他加密货币与可能失去银行业务访问的卡车司机联系起来，但他确实将比特币称为“您可以拥有的最重要的单一资产”。

Poilievre has also opposed the Bank of Canada's research into a central bank digital currency, arguing that it could infringe on privacy rights or let lawmakers target benefits to supporters. Last year he supported a bill which would have banned a Canadian CBDC outright (echoing U.S. Republicans who have done the same here).

Poilievre还反对加拿大银行对中央银行数字货币的研究，认为它可以侵犯隐私权，或者让立法者以支持者的目标为目标。去年，他支持了一项法案，该法案将禁止加拿大CBDC直接（与在这里做同样的共和党人相呼应）。

Canadian magazine Maclean's reported that while Poilievre has said less about crypto in recent days, the Conservative Party as a whole still tends to support the industry, citing various Members of Parliament who have introduced bills or otherwise discussed crypto.

加拿大杂志MacLean的报道说，尽管Poilievre在最近几天对加密货币的说法却较少，但整个保守党仍然倾向于支持该行业，引用了议会的各种成员，他们引入了账单或以其他方式讨论了加密货币。

Poilievre did seem to discuss crypto publicly less after FTX's dramatic collapse in 2022, which his political opponents used to issue warnings about Poilievre's prior advocacy for digital assets. Poilievre may also be reckoning with Trump's unpopularity in Canada, and seeking to distance himself from policies that may imitate the U.S. President's.

在FTX在2022年剧烈崩溃之后，Poilievre似乎确实不太公开讨论加密货币，他的政治反对者曾经对Poilievre先前对数字资产的倡导发出警告。 Poilievre也可能会估计特朗普在加拿大的不受欢迎，并试图与可能模仿美国总统的政策保持距离。

Mark Carney

马克·卡尼

Carney was the head of both the Bank of Canada and later the Bank of England. While he hasn't said a lot about Bitcoin, he did give a speech on the "future of money" in London in March 2018, where he criticized digital assets' use, citing speculative mania and a lack of vendors willing to accept it as a payment tool.

卡尼（Carney）是加拿大银行和后来的英格兰银行的负责人。虽然他没有对比特币说很多话，但他确实在2018年3月就伦敦的“货币未来”发表了演讲，他批评了数字资产的使用，理由是投机性躁狂症和缺乏愿意接受它作为付款工具的供应商。

"The long, charitable answer is that cryptocurrencies act as money, at best, only for some people and to a limited extent, and even then only in parallel with the
