Mr. Speaker, people in my riding of Cambridge and Canadians across Ontario are once again being gouged at the pumps as gasoline prices rise with the spring temperatures.
To many Canadians the issue is clear. Oil companies are being allowed to charge whatever price they see fit for a litre of gasoline.
I will wait with interest to see what happens as the first long weekend of spring arrives. No doubt there will be a noticeable and coincidental rise in gasoline prices. There always is.
At what point will the government stand up against the major oil and gas companies and do what is right to protect Canadians from these unjustifiable price increases?
