Jenny Kwan NDP
“I want the government to tax the extra profits of oil and gas companies. That money should go to clean energy, a national wealth fund, and people struggling with the high cost of living.”
“Mr. Speaker, I will tell you what the NDP stands for. The NDP stands for calling on the government to actually impose an excessive profit tax on the oil and gas companies, which are poised to make over $90 billion just this year alone in profits. That money should go into the sovereign wealth fund. That money should go into green energy initiatives. That money should be going into supporting Canadians who are struggling with the affordability crisis.”
