Wayne Long Liberal
“We paused taxes to save Canadians 28 cents a litre on gas. The opposition leader should stop making videos and work with us to help Canadians.”
“Mr. Speaker, while that leader is focused on podcasts, fitness videos and empty-parking-lot press conferences, on this side of the House we are focused on delivering affordability for Canadians. We just paused the federal excise tax on gas, 10¢ a litre. We cancelled the consumer carbon tax, which is 18¢ a litre. Combined, that is 28¢ a litre in savings for Canadians. It is time for that leader to put down the kettlebells and help us build Canada strong.”
