Marilyn Gladu Liberal
“Our government wants to lower taxes, and we already took the tax off fuel. Global conflicts make it hard to predict what will happen next. We should watch the situation closely and offer help as things become clearer.”
“Mr. Speaker, of course, our government is committed to reducing taxes for Canadians. We brought forward Bill C-38 to take the tax off all fuel. I think, and hope, the member opposite would agree that it is very difficult to predict the situation globally in terms of the Strait of Hormuz and the various wars that are coming. Would he not agree that the prudent thing is to continue to monitor the situation and introduce responsive affordability measures as we know more about the global situation?”
