Luc Berthold Conservative
“I want the government to pause all taxes on gas until July 1, 2027. I am not defending big oil companies, but cutting these taxes is the fastest way to save Canadians money.”
“Madam Speaker, I will not defend the big oil and gas companies. I come from a region that was a victim of the gas cartel. Companies have to reimburse a lot of people in my riding because they were fixing gas prices together. I am not here to make their court case, but I must say that, what we can control right now, immediately, is the tax on gas to provide some relief to Canadians. I am asking the government again to please suspend all taxes on gas until July, 1 2027. Let us save money for Canadians.”
