Mr. Speaker, with gas prices soaring, the Liberal government is now expected to receive up to $9 billion more in revenue from higher oil and gas prices. This is revenue it never budgeted for, but for Canadians, these are higher costs they never budgeted for. It means higher prices at the pump, at the grocery store or just to get by.
Will the Liberal government commit today to dropping the 25¢ per litre tax on gas for the remainder of the year, so Canadians are not being punished while the Liberal government profits?
