Oshawa's Strong Voice in Parliament

 

This past April 1st, Prime Minister Trudeau's costly Carbon Tax increased from $65 per tonne to $80 per tonne.

And along the way, Jagmeet Singh and the NDP have supported – and voted for – every single Carbon Tax increase.

Oshawa families are now paying an extra 17 cents per litre of gasoline15 cents more per cubic metre of natural gas.

Overall, the average family is paying an additional $1,674 per year in 2024 owing to the most recent NDP-supported Carbon Tax increase.

Even after your federal rebate payments are factored in, the Carbon Tax will still cost the average Oshawa household an additional $377 to $911 in 2024-25 according to the independent and non-partisan Parliamentary Budget Officer's report of March 2023.

Oshawa households need a break.

 


The Petition

 Whereas:

The Carbon Tax has driven up the price of all essentials including groceries, home heating, and gasoline during a national cost-of-living crisis;

The Carbon Tax will cost Oshawa households far more than they can expect to recover in federal rebate payments; and,

Recent Trudeau-Singh tax policy changes disadvantage Ontario residents relative to Atlantic Canadians who now receive a special break on the cost of home heating oil.

 Therefore:

We, the undersigned, demand that the federal government to eliminate the Carbon Tax on everything for everyone.
