Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“Gas is much more expensive now, and Canadian families have the highest debt in the G7. The Prime Minister needs to stop making excuses and change the policies that are causing high prices.”
“Mr. Speaker, lots has changed since Harper’s time. Gas prices are more than 40¢ a litre higher, even though the world oil price is actually lower. Now the Prime Minister has made up a new excuse, that there are not enough refineries under his leadership. Maybe he should get out of the way and let refineries build in Canada. We have a Prime Minister who likes to blame the rest of the world. He has given Canadian households the worst debt anywhere in the G7, with delinquencies up 18% year over year. Will the Prime Minister stop making excuses and reverse the inflationary policies before Canadians lose their homes?”
