Liberals deny Canadians a<br />
choice on the carbon tax<br />
by Damien C. Kurek, MP<br />
Battle River - Crowfoot<br />
On April 1, the Liberal-NDP<br />
costly coalition will raise the<br />
carbon tax by a whopping 23 per<br />
cent, the next step in their plan<br />
to increase it to 170 dollars a ton.<br />
Conservatives gave the MPs<br />
from the Liberal backbench, the<br />
NDP, and Bloc Quebecois a<br />
chance to stand up for<br />
Canadians and their constituents<br />
and stop the forthcoming<br />
hike… but they chose instead to<br />
continue to prop up the<br />
Government.<br />
This tax hike is coming at the<br />
worst possible time. Canadians<br />
are struggling after eight years<br />
of Prime Minister Trudeau’s<br />
inflationary spending and<br />
taxes.<br />
MPs had a chance to listen to<br />
their constituents and bring<br />
some desperately needed relief<br />
this week on two occasions.<br />
They could have voted for a<br />
Common-Sense Conservative<br />
motion Wed. March 13 to spike<br />
the hike, but they didn’t, which<br />
is why Pierre Poilievre introduced<br />
a motion of<br />

Geraldine Lavallee/McLean,<br />
“Gerri” having lived 69 years, passed<br />
away peacefully in Stettler, Alta. on<br />
March 19, <strong>2024</strong>.<br />
To know our mom, momma “G”,<br />
nanny, sister, auntie and friend is to<br />
know the loss that is felt. To a woman<br />
who lived life to the fullest, loved with<br />
no judgement and was always there for<br />
anyone. An inspiring artisan, a jack of<br />
all trades and all around doer, you are<br />
truly an amazing soul and are worth a<br />
thousand words over. We leave you<br />
with this quote to encompass the love<br />
that you left. Till the next game, gathering<br />
or whenever you stop in to say hi,<br />
we love you.<br />
I Love You<br />
I love You even when I can no longer<br />
see you smile in my direction.<br />
I Love You more for who you were as<br />
my life moves forward without you.<br />
I Love You for<br />
the Me you<br />
created.<br />
I Love You for<br />
what you left<br />
behind within all<br />
of us.<br />
I Love You for<br />
the mark you left<br />
on every person<br />
who knew you.<br />
I Love You for<br />
teaching me that<br />
our souls will<br />
meet again.<br />
I Love You<br />
more.<br />
PARLIAMENT<br />
non-confidence.<br />
This past Thurs. March 21<br />
Conservatives debated, and<br />
Parliament voted on a confidence<br />
motion to give Canadians<br />
a carbon tax election. The NDP<br />
and Bloc could have voted to<br />
give Canadians the power but<br />
they did not.<br />
The Liberal-NDP-Bloc coalition<br />
instead abandoned their<br />
constituents and decided to prop<br />
up the historically unpopular<br />
Liberal Prime Minister in the<br />
twilight of his disastrous<br />
Government.<br />
In fact, since NDP Leader<br />
Jagmeet Singh, was elected the<br />
NDP have voted with Trudeau<br />
on 93 per cent of confidence<br />
votes, and all confidence votes<br />
since the 2021 election.<br />
Seventy per cent of<br />
Canadians oppose Justin<br />
Trudeau’s April 1 tax hike, and<br />
70 per cent of provincial premiers<br />
– including the Liberal<br />
Premier of Newfoundland and<br />
Labrador and provincial<br />
Liberal parties in Ontario, Nova<br />
Scotia and New Brunswick –<br />
have asked the Prime Minister<br />
OBITUARY<br />
Gerri will be<br />
forever missed by<br />

Annual General Meeting<br />

Co-op Ltd will be held at the Wainwright<br />

to stop this painful tax increase<br />
before it’s too late.<br />
But the truth is that the costly<br />
coalition is no longer listening<br />
to Canadians.<br />
While the Liberals crow<br />
about how great everything is<br />
going for them, all while<br />
Canadians are hurting.<br />
The left-leaning coalition<br />
whose policies are dominating<br />
the public agenda of the nation<br />
are causing economic misery<br />
for so many.<br />
A simple example of this is<br />
skyrocketing food bank usage,<br />
of which these essential community<br />
organizations that have<br />
always been there for those who<br />
need it are expecting to see a<br />
million more people, only more<br />
devastation on top of last year’s<br />
record usage.<br />
Justin Trudeau has created<br />
the worst economic conditions<br />
since the great depression, and<br />
Canadians have lost faith in his<br />
Government. Only Common-<br />
Sense Conservatives will axe<br />
the tax, bring home lower prices<br />
for everyone, and lead a government<br />
that you can trust.<br />
