Faced with airlines charging passengers junk fees for basic services like carry-on luggage, the Liberals plan to once again politely ask the CEOs to change their ways.

If only someone had the power to regulate airlines on behalf of Canadians…

Our plan takes the GST off home heating, phone and internet bills, kids’ clothes and more.

We’d make it permanent, too, meaning more savings for families.

(And small biz would only have to change their prices once)

Monday’s the vote.

I’m still pushing the government to restore the full Northern Residents Tax Deduction for the residents of Haida Gwaii.

With the cost of living higher than ever and the government’s Fall Economic Statement coming in just days, it’s time for this change.

Yet another story involving the airlines’ mistreatment of passengers with disabilities. Yet another day that goes by without the government acting to protect their safety, dignity and human rights.

Canadian families are getting gouged on essentials while big corporations are posting record profits.

We have a plan to take the GST off heating, phone/internet and kids’ clothes and pay for it by taxing excess profits.

(In 2020, the PBO found such a tax would bring in $7.9 billion/yr)
