John-Paul Danko Liberal
“High fuel and fertilizer prices are hurting farmers. Will the member admit that the Trump administration's war against Iran caused oil prices to rise?”
“Mr. Speaker, the member opposite spoke about her real concern for the affordability concerns that her residents are facing. She spoke a lot, in particular, about the increase in fuel prices and how that impacts farmers, as well as the increased costs of fertilizer. I just want to give the member an opportunity. This has been caused by a unilateral war by the Trump administration against Iran, which caused the single largest increase in oil prices in world history. Would she acknowledge that as being the root cause of the current increase in fuel prices?”
