Pierre Poilievre
The Public Record
Canadian politician
Many Albertans are legitimately frustrated that a costly and controlling, big and bossy government has gone far beyond its jurisdictional boundaries.
If you listen carefully to what Albertans are asking for, they don’t want to take away anything from anyone else. In fact, their demands would not only make Alberta better off, it would make all of us better off.
I love Alberta. I love what it represents — hard work, generosity, unpretentiousness, resilience, common sense. I love the grit of the people.
Simply put, Alberta has had more independence in the past, and we’ll have more independence in the future as part of a united Canada as part of that gigantic country, sharing a military and borders with millions of other Canadians than we…
The problem with all of these things is not Canada. Separation will not solve those problems.
Simply put, the last decade the federal government has done terribly at the things that are actually its job: immigration, crime, military spending, borders, while intruding into things that are not its job: regulating our resources, going…
What Albertans are complaining about is not Canada. It is the government policies that are actually inconsistent with how Canada was meant to work in the first place.
I do not want to phase out Canadian oil and gas. I want to produce more of it and at a lower price.
Affordable fuel is one of the most important pillars to defeat poverty, enrich our middle class and make our country self-reliant.
Why aren't we using our oil to power our people? We should be energy independent, and you, the Canadian family, should enjoy the price savings from that.
When farmers and truckers pay more, the price gets passed on to you.
Poilievre also advocates removing all diesel production taxes by permanently scrapping the federal industrial carbon tax and the Clean Fuel Standard.
Poilievre says Canada already produces enough diesel to meet national demand, but transportation bottlenecks leave some regions dependent on U.S. imports.
If you got it, a truck or train brought it. And, those trucks or trains are all powered by diesel.
Canada is facing a diesel price emergency, and international factors do not explain the discrepancy between what Canadians and those in the U.S. are paying at the pump.
It’s in the constitution. Interprovincial projects have been exclusively the domain of the federal government.
I think that we should have national trucking regulations that are signed on to by all provinces to simplify the movement of those goods.
The Liberals have come in and announced another sweeping bill, which the media has regurgitated unfiltered, as though it were gospel truth, and this time the Liberals are repeating exactly the same promises.
“Gushing media headlines aside, there has been nothing in 18 months. The previous bill was called the Building Canada Act. It built nothing. Today we have a bill. It’s called the Building Canada Strong Act. So, in 18 months, they’ve…
“Today they’ve come in and they’ve announced another sweeping bill, which the media has regurgitated, unfiltered, as though it were gospel truth, and this time they’re repeating exactly the same promises.”
All Canadians have received from the prime minister, is big talk around the world and big bills here at home.
