Petition to the House of Commons
- Millions of Canadian citizens can no longer afford to pay for basic necessities;
- Food banks in Canada are receiving a record number of visitors, which includes an increasing number of citizens from the working class;
- The cost of heating homes has increased 20 percent in some cases, due to the Federal Carbon Tax charge included in heating bills;
- The cost of food production has increased due to the Federal Carbon Tax which directly affects the cost of food for consumers;
- The high cost of fuel is causing farm owners to sell their property, causing farming production to decrease, putting Canadians at risk of a food crisis; and
- The increase in food, fuel and heating costs has hindered Canadian’s ability to have expendable money, creating a decrease in spending in our local economies, weakening the overall Canadian economy.
