Warren Steinley Conservative
“For months, the Liberals voted against cutting the gas tax and said it did not make life unaffordable. Now they are cutting it, but it is too late. I want my colleague to explain why the Liberals changed their minds.”
“Madam Speaker, the Liberals said for months and months that their gas tax was not creating an affordability crisis. We brought forward motion after motion, and every Liberal member voted against getting rid of the gas tax. Can my colleague explain what he thinks of the change of heart the Liberals had. Why are they now admitting that they were wrong after all these months, when Canadians could have had a tax decrease on groceries for months? Now they are bringing it in a little bit late. Why has there been a change of heart from our Liberals colleagues?”
