Cut Taxes-Stay Alive??
Gasoline prices fuel Lord's pre-election campaign
Well, I think that Lord's idea to cut taxes on gas is actually a good one, although much belated......too bad he didn't do it before his ass was on the line. In other words, New Brunswickers are only important when it comes time to vote. Same old song and dance.
A gas tax cut was never the solution before regulation. We all know how that would have gone based on past experience. The oil companies would have simply raised the price and put the difference in their own pocket. Now with regulation, New Brunswickers "could" actually save a few pennies, depending on how it's handled.
As well on this one, many people including Shawn Graham are in agreement that the current regulation is not working.(I include myself also) My question is, in that case, what does Mr.Graham propose to do about it if elected? The old system didn't work except for "Big Oil", the new one seems to work for nobody except.....hmmmm.....yes once again big oil... ie. refiners......so Shawn........talk to us........what is your suggestion!! We are listening!
Oh and since i'm on the subject, if Mr.Lord and his government are going to tell the PUB what to do and when, then why bother with the PUB anyway. This little fiasco simply stinks.....
