Dear Constituents,
Parliament has been back in session for a little over a month now and continuing from my work in 2023, I immediately delved back into the ArriveCan study. As Conservative Shadow Minister for Treasury Board, I’ve been leading the charge to get answers for Canadians as to why the app ended up costing $54 million dollars. Conservatives will continue fighting for accountability and answers from this Liberal government.
Last month, my office continued our annual tradition of delivering Valentines for Seniors in our community of Calgary Midnapore. Thank you to the staff and students at Don Bosco School in Deer Ridge for the beautiful handmade cards! My staff had a great time delivering them to over 100 residents at the Atria – Canyon Meadows retirement facility.
On April 1, Justin Trudeau will be signing off on two tax increases. The Carbon Tax will shoot up to $80 per tonne, and with this Canadians can expect to see a rise in the cost of everything from gas and heat to groceries. As if one tax increase isn’t bad enough, the Liberal governments escalator tax on beer, wine, and spirits will rise by 4.7% at the start of April as well. Since the escalator tax was introduced in 2017 overall taxes on alcohol have increased by a staggering 19%. Alongside my Conservative colleagues, I’ve been relentless in calling on this government to axe the carbon tax and bring home lower prices for all Canadians.
