“Mr. Speaker, I have a very reasonable question for the member. Many members from Abbotsford had to convoy all the way to Vancouver during this last couple of weeks. They had to make sure they raised awareness of the government in power about high diesel prices. Diesel prices have become very extraordinary for our community in the Lower Mainland as people go day to day filling up their tanks and making sure they can try to provide for their families. They sometimes fail on making the mark. I know this goes for people across the Lower Mainland and across our nation. I know this affects people in my Conservative colleague’s area as well, so I would like to understand what the effects are in my colleague’s area.”
