As gas prices surge, largely due to the Islamic Regime in Iran holding the Strait of Hormuz hostage, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre calls for the Liberal government to cut all domestic taxes on gas for a year.

Poilievre says his plan would save Canadians 25 cents a litre by eliminating the Fuel Excise Tax, currently costing Canadians 10 cents a litre, the Clean Fuel Standard at seven cents a litre, and the GST, currently costing eight cents a litre.
