Fuel prices?

[browningboy]

I am all good with getting rid of a lot of these fuel/carbon tax BS.
Yes, he is trying to “buy votes”.
But, on another front, I guess it’s obvious that folks are feeling the pinch due to monetary policy, raising interest rates and trying to fight the inflation all the governments and corporations created.
Which means giving folks a break when they feel the punch means further raising if rates later, imo.
What I am saying folks, there’s no winning!
There is no soft landing coming!
Its going to hurt eventually.
Dont mean to be a prick or doom and gloom, but we got a rocky road ahead!
Just listened to a guy complaining in Rona about how much more his mortgage has become.
If fuel goes down, it will help.
But it’s going to be for all the wrong reasons.
Buying votes and major recession.
Houses around here are getting hard to sell now.
Big price drops starting to happen and LM is at the cusp of being a buyers market now!
Hold on!

Ah… carbon tax is BS, doesn’t reduce carbon and just a cash cow, major part of inflation as well. It’s not just buying votes it’s the right thing to do!

Sala said he would like to see “greater fairness” in how the federal government applies their carbon pricing exemptions.

True, is the right thing to do, agree with you.
But he is only doing it to buy votes.
