Join Canadians for Affordable Energy and tell Ottawa: keep the gas tax off

| By Olivia Ezman

On September 8, Canadians are going to feel it at the pump. That’s the day Prime Minister Carney’s gas tax holiday ends — and 10 cents per litre on gasoline and 4 cents per litre on diesel comes back, straight out of your wallet. Carney suspended the federal fuel excise tax in April, framing it … Continued

Tell Doug Ford: Don’t Start a Trade War to Save Your Own Skin

| By Olivia Ezman

Ontario Premier Doug Ford is calling on Canada to cut off energy exports to the United States. He says it’s about standing up to Trump’s tariffs. Don’t be fooled. This isn’t even the first time Ford has played this card. When Trump’s tariffs first hit in early 2025, Ford threatened to shut off electricity exports … Continued

Tell Carney: Stop Letting Climate Ideology Kill Canada’s Energy Future

| By Olivia Ezman

Last week, Prime Minister Carney announced a new pipeline deal with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. It sounded like good news. Look closer. The devil is in the details: the tanker ban stays, locking out Canada’s most direct route to Asian markets. And tied to the pipeline itself is a commitment to advance a massive carbon … Continued

The federal government is consulting Canadians on new rules for how major projects get approved. This is our chance to be heard — but we need to act before July 22. Here’s what’s at stake.

Tell Carney to stop forcing unreliable heat pumps on Canadians

| By Olivia Ezman

Prime Minister Carney is pushing a plan to force millions of Canadian households to abandon their traditional heating systems in favour of electric heat pumps — all in the name of his “net zero” agenda.

Gas Prices: Who Really Benefits?

| By Olivia Ezman

Every time gas prices go up, Ottawa quietly pockets more of your money. You already pay fixed taxes on every litre. But governments also charge GST and HST on the higher price – so the more you pay at the pump, the more tax they collect!  Then add the Clean Fuel Standard, which builds even … Continued

Tell Carney to CANCEL his deal with Communist China

| By Olivia Ezman

Politicians and the mainstream media are celebrating Prime Minister Carney’s new “strategic partnership” with Communist China. Our Prime Minister made an unprecedented trade deal with a country known for attempting to take over our resources, interfere in our elections, and massive human rights abuses. Carney’s “landmark trade arrangement” with China slashes Canada’s 100% tariff on … Continued

Tell Carney to approve a pipeline NOW

| By Olivia Ezman

Venezuelan oil could displace Canada oil exports to the U.S. After the latest events in Venezuela, it’s very likely the Americans could end U.S. sanctions on Venezuelan oil. Venezuela has the world’s largest proven crude oil reserves. Many believe under a new government, the country could double or triple its current output fairly quickly. It … Continued

Stop Carney’s Hidden Carbon Tax Before It Costs Us More

| By Olivia Ezman

Many Canadians are celebrating Alberta and the federal government’s new pipeline agreement. But here’s what the establishment isn’t telling you – the Carney Liberal government is doubling down on the carbon tax and net-zero scams. The good news – Alberta gets an exemption on so-called “Clean Electricity Regulations” and an emissions cap reprieve. But the … Continued

STOP the EV Handouts! — Sign the Petition Now

| By Olivia Ezman

Canadians are hurting. Groceries, rent, gas, everything costs more. Families are being squeezed harder every month. And while you’re cutting back to make ends meet, governments across Canada are lighting your tax dollars on fire. Billions – yes, billions – are being dumped into electric vehicle (EV) subsidies. All for a product most Canadians don’t … Continued
