The Consumers' Association of Canada says, with the latest refusal of Government to act, the time has come to make "Gas Prices" the No. 1 issue in the next election
(Ottawa)
Following the latest refusal by Government to act to protect consumers from Gas Gouging, the Consumers' Association calls on Canadians to confront all potential candidates for the next election. "We have in the past few days been inundated with thousands of contacts from irate consumers fed to the teeth by being treated with contempt by the Governments
and Petroleum Corporations," said CAC President Bruce Cran. "We need a Government prepared to take action to provide relief from this never ending burden. Now is the time to question your future MP," he added.
"The half hearted enquiries of the past have failed to produce answers or relief," said Cran. "We need to shed light on how this industry operates and also on the symbiotic punishing taxes applied to gasoline by various levels of Government."
The NDP have made their position clear. Where do your MPs and their parties stand? That must be the No. ONE question.
