Sukhman Gill Conservative
“High diesel prices make food, building, and goods cost more for Canadians. I want the Prime Minister to vote for our plan to cut all taxes on diesel until Canada Day.”
“Mr. Speaker, last week, hundreds of dump truck drivers hit the roads protesting the rising diesel prices. Diesel powers the trucks that move our goods, the equipment that builds our communities and the farms that put food on our tables. When diesel costs rise, Canadians pay more for everything. Today the Liberals have the opportunity to vote on a Conservative emergency fuel relief plan to cut all taxes on diesel until Canada Day and bring some relief during Thanksgiving. Will the Prime Minister listen to our truckers and finally give relief to Canadians?”
