“Truckers deliver our food, but the government is making their work harder and more expensive. We want to cut the tax on diesel fuel for truckers and farmers until Canada Day. I want the government to work with us to do this.”
“Madam Speaker, do people know who delivers food? It is truckers. As I said in my speech, truckers are the lifeblood of our vast country, yet the government is making it harder for them to deliver the food we all need. Conservatives are fighting to give them a tax break on diesel until Canada Day, and we hope the government will work with us to give this break to Canadians, truckers, the whole trucking industry and farmers.”
