Mr. Speaker, the government's decision to implement measures in order to offset the fuel crisis, while inspired by the plan presented by the Bloc, falls short of our expectations. The government's plan does nothing for childless couples, single people under the age of 65 and a number of groups hard hit by the fuel crisis.
For example, since there has been a direct impact on farmers and since this increase in gasoline prices will cost farmers over $250 million, does the government intend to offer them specific aid or are they being left to their own devices?
