Mr. Speaker, it is cold in Canada. We live in a northern country. It is cold in Quebec. According to the CAA, cold weather reduces car battery life by 40%.
A ban on gas-powered vehicles in Canada is unrealistic. It will cost Canadians 38,000 jobs. This government wants to punish Quebeckers who choose to drive gas-powered vehicles by imposing a $20,000 tax.
Why do the Liberals want to punish Quebeckers who live in the regions?
Will they vote in favour of our motion this evening, end the ban on gas-powered vehicles and give Quebeckers the freedom to choose between electricity and gas?
