Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“The Liberals cannot blame other countries for high housing and gas prices. Gas was 50 cents cheaper when oil prices were higher in 2014. I want the government to cancel fuel taxes for the whole year so people can afford gas.”
“Mr. Speaker, the Liberals are selling another illusion by trying to blame the war in Iran for the cost of housing. The homes are here, the land is here, the workers are here and the supplies are here. It is here at home that the costs have gone up. Let us talk about the energy crisis. There was one in 2014, during the Harper years. The global price of oil was even higher than it is today. However, the price at the pump was 50¢ per litre lower. Will the Liberals finally get rid of the Liberal taxes for the entire year so that Canadians can fill up their tanks?”
