“High fuel prices are hurting people and businesses in my riding. They saved money when we paused the fuel tax last spring, and they want us to extend that break. What is the government doing to help Canadians pay less for gas?”
“Mr. Speaker, in the face of rising fuel prices driven by global instability, Canadians deserve real relief. I heard this from the families and businesses in my riding of South Shore—St. Margarets throughout the summer. They benefited from our government’s decision to suspend the fuel excise tax last spring, and they are hoping to see it extended. I have a question for the finance minister that I am hearing from my constituents. How are we helping Canadians pay less at the pump so they can keep more money in their pockets?”
