TERRAZZANO: Gas tax hikes show Trudeau doesn’t care about affordability

Fanatics will always show their true colours

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau refuses to do the one thing that would immediately make life more affordable: cut gas taxes.

The federal government makes you pay a fuel tax, a carbon tax, a second carbon tax and a sales tax every time you fuel up. In total, federal taxes add about 31 cents per litre to the price of gas, or about $20 extra to fuel up a large sedan.

Net-zero policy hurts everyone but especially the poor. It is class warfare.
