Mr. Speaker, in Kapuskasing, the price of gas at the pump this week has skyrocketed to $1.22 a litre. All over northern Ontario, the high cost of transportation is stretching family budgets to the breaking point. The government's reckless HST policy is just adding to our pain.
When will this government admit that it is responsible for the fiasco the HST has become?
When will the government take action on soaring gas prices that impact greatly on rural communities and northern Ontario?
