Gabriel Hardy Conservative
“The Liberals copy our ideas but do not know how to make them work. They only cut the gas tax partly and for a short time. We want the government to remove all federal taxes on gas to help families. More taxes and red tape will not fix this. The government needs to get out of the way so our country can grow.”
“Mr. Speaker, it is always quite something to hear that. First, the opposition is playing its part. We have offered up plenty of solutions here in the House, and the Liberals, unfortunately, are stealing our ideas. However, since they did not come up with these ideas themselves, they do not know how to implement them. They have scrapped the excise tax on gasoline, but temporarily and only partially. What we are calling for is the removal of all federal taxes to give families some real breathing room. More taxes, more red tape, more bureaucracy—that is not the solution. It is high time they realized that the government needs to step aside and let our country grow so that, ultimately, we can all prosper together.”
