Mr. Speaker, while the Conservatives speculate about what we will do when we take office, gas prices continue to rise. Right now, high gas prices are driving up the cost of essential commodities. Since gas is $1.53 a litre, merchants have to increase their prices. A former Competition Bureau investigator confirmed that there is collusion to fix prices at the pump.
The NDP is proposing tangible solutions to strengthen existing regulations and is calling for the creation of a ombudsman position.
Why are the Conservatives allowing collusion in this industry?
