Ned Kuruc Conservative
“We need to get rid of the fuel tax completely so Canadians feel relief right away. We also need to cut $150 billion in wasteful spending to protect our economy from unfair American tariffs. I want other parties to look at our economic plan.”
“Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the member for his question. He also fights very hard for his community. What should we be doing? There is a lot, but we need to start with getting rid of the fuel tax. It is the one thing that Canadians can feel right away. I would propose, although this is not the forum for it, our Conservative economic plan. We have identified $150 billion in savings that Canadians can benefit from. We are starting here, but we have proposed a plan that I hope my colleagues on the other side will at least take a look at. We are in a trade war; make no mistake about that. The President has put unjustified tariffs on us, and we have to fight against that. In order to do that, we have to look at Canadians first. We need to keep money in Canada. We need to look at wasteful spending, of which we have identified 150 billion dollars’ worth, come together and work on that for the sake of Canadians and for the sake of moving forward.”
