Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre called on Prime Minister Mark Carney to introduce an emergency response to the increase in oil prices sparked by the U.S.-Iran war and asked for an urgent debate on the matter.
“We must unblock our oil and gas to fuel our friends abroad and power our paycheques at home,” Poilievre wrote in a March 6 letter demanding the Liberal government immediately introduce an “Emergency Energy Supply Plan.”
