Madam Speaker, when asked why the government will not temporarily remove GST from gasoline to help offset the high cost of fuel, the government claimed that there was no evidence that removing a tax at the point of sale would reduce prices. Liberals even called the suggestion a subsidy for industry. Is the government so economically illiterate that it actually thinks that removing a tax on consumers is an industry subsidy?
